Exporting from Maya

[NerdyZGreat]

Has anyone successfully exported a Thememakers Toolkit item from Maya 2018? If so how? I am having trouble doing LODs and how they're supposed to be grouped.

Could you show a screenshot of the outliner?


Here's a sample.
Don't group them. Just leave it at the root of your scene, and name according to the guide, and as shown below. The suffix L0, L1, L2 and so on is the LOD level, from 0-5, 6 LODs in total.

Oh thanks that might help.

It still came up with the same thing, I made them separate and I also made a hitcheck.

What's your outliner look like?
Did you export only the meshes? Nothing else?
Did you remember to delete history?
Is everything within scale?
All transforms frozen?

Are you showing DAG shapes? Or are those locators?
If they are locators; unparent the meshes and remove the locators. You're not supposed to have them.

These are the DAG shapes.

The hitchhike item isn't named according to the documentation.
Try naming it Hitcheck_01

Thanks I'll do that. I think there was something else wrong. Here's the .zip:
