In part 8, you didn't actually show the scaling (because it is easy enough to figure out for oneself), but you should add a note that if the model is rescaled, you need to select all objects and go to Hierarchy and select 'Reset: "Scale"'.

I have never done that, and the mods still work fine.

yes reset x form required

I reset x form (I do it before uvw mapping parts), but not reset scale.

scale and rotate operations require reset x form.
i recommend this to you.

you can look at my Turbosquid 3d models,
my 3d models are named CheckMate Pro Certified,
www.turbosquid.com/Search/Artists/XNA-Studios

I do reset xform. I just do it after I detach and attach my parts, as it makes no difference to do it again. Especially if you position the model before attaching, and there might be hundreds of parts, it is a pain to select each one and collapse the xform. So if I wait until I have attached them before I reset xform, it saves time.

yes, it doesn't matter when you do it,
but x form required.

Thank you! I will try it out.

It works pretty good. Although a few parts get too much optimisation and lose their quality. I will replace any damaged parts using my original method. Thanks for sharing it!

you get better results if you convert damaged parts one by one,
this is because the person making the 3d model cannot make it fully compatible.

Alright, well this method definitely saves a lot of time/work.

THETJVIDCHANNEL OFFLINE Global Moderator Mod Maker and Moderator Posts: 10764 Thank you received: 1731	I followed the steps in my tutorial for optimisation, and did the same thing with your optimisation. My method is on the left, Simplygon is on the right: Simplygon has more polygons, and there is some defects when you look up close. In game, the paint would have bad reflections. However, simplygon is more reliable, as my method tends to corrupt more often.
