Hello, im new here, coming from mxg-hq.com as MiNi

Im having a problem with downloaded models. It seems that I have working bike models, but I still can't seem to get any rider models to work.

I recentlty downloaded ShackAttacks skin/model pack, and it seems that I am able to get most of the bikes with the models working. However, I pasted all of the other skins along with the bikes in my personal folder. However, only about 14 rider skins show up. What am I doing wrong?

Help would be very kind and appreciated!

Thanks!

.saf files ...

How do ya open these things? What programme is it related to ?

You aren't supposed to open them, that's the point of a saf file. The game still reads them.

little question:
is it possible in blender to bake an ambient occlusion map with normals?
i mean, i want to create ao maps for the ktms and rider model, but plain meshes are missing a lot of little details (ktm) and all the wrinkles (rider model) so it's almost useless to do since they will result very poorly accurate.
i wasn't able to find any tutorial on how to include the normal details in the ao maps, so i think maybe it's just impossible.
any clue?
thanx

I don't know if this really helps, but i found a page on this, and here's a peice someone wrote:
"I use the blue channel of the normal map to get the height information and then by bluring and tweaking this result, I can generate something close enough to a real ambient occlusion."
The person who was wondering about doing the same as you had this for an example:

thanx timferry but that's not what i'm looking for.
what i need to do is baking an ambient occlusion map of the mesh and the normal map together..damn i can't find it anywhere..
