Colour import issue #68

Closed Unpixelled closed 1 year ago

Unpixelled commented 3 years ago

I installed it correctly but when importing models, all materials end up as being a Lego Standard yellow, parts that had the same colour (ie two black parts for example) did share the same material but all were the standard yellow. I attempted to change my import settings and new Ldraw models but none of that worked.

A friend who correctly installed it tried to assist and sent me his version but the same issue occured. (I don't use Github a lot so I may be pointing out something obvious I've missed or that it's an issue with my Blender rather than the plugin but I don't know enough to find a fix).

Turns out in my case it was a wrongly exported ldraw parts library that was missing the colors file (or rather the LDConfig.ldr file). So if it helps anyone, make sure that this file is exported correctly and the paths are set properly.

Where should this file be placed in order for it to be corrected?

As this appears to be an issue with the ldraw parts directory, I will close.
