Material not Displaying in Game

[Fwhilton]

After successfully exporting and running through TMT, In the game my materials don't show. In Blender they are just base BSDF. So, they are not textures. Anyone know why this might be happening?

Planet Coaster does not take node based materials, only textures. It simply receives the material name ("DarkGrey" etc.) and looks for the relevant textures ("DarkGrey_BC.png" etc.).

Okay, so what is the easiest way to get that to work?

For your setup you could just create a "color_BC.png" for each of your 8 colors as a 128x128 image with paint or a similar program (just solid color) and add them to the zip. Your cubes might also need (arbitrary) UV maps, don't know how the game behaves if there are no UVs at all. The colors should then show ingame. If that works you can start experimenting with roughness maps etc.

Well, I did finally get it to work. And NO... UV Unwrap is not required.
Thanks for the info.
