Hello,
I am having a problem with mesh editor , which might be a bug or me doing something wrong
I can import a .dds file into mesh editor in the material mode and it takes about 5 seconds to import. I save the file as .mtrl and click the set button. The problem happens when I click import and select another .dds file, then my CPU util goes to 100% and stays there until I kill the mesh editor process. This happens everytime, the first file imports fine the second locks up the mesh editor. I am running the latest version as I ran the update tool. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

Thanks,
Arcturus

What you should be doing is drag the dds file into the material editor window (drop it on the sphere). This will convert it to a .gfx file. I'm not exactly sure what the import button does but I believe the proper way to import a texture is the way I described.

Thanks I'll try that. Whats interesting is when you open mesh editor and import the .dds, the mesh editor process hogs 60-70% of cpu util and never releases it. I think when I import the second time it is bring the utilization to 100% and bogging down the CPU.


Update: I guess dragging the file into mesh in mode5 is the preferred method of importing .dds files. I have no CPU utilization issues any more. Thanks Rofar
