Converting EoC models to FBX

[Chessking]

Richard Skinner and I have both tried to tackle this problem. I have also tried importing SketchUp models through Blender. In the case of SketchUp, it seems the .mat files were renamed to /*filename*/.mat.meta. I think the problem may lie here, as Blender seems to recognize the existence of the textures and their grouping structure (which faces they apply to). Both Richard Skinner and I have had more important things to work on and have not directly solved the problem, but their is another solution. Schmatzler was working on retexturing a model in this thread:

Also, here is here Richard Skinner and I were discussing textures:

I was afraid of that. I tried Lightwave as well and it will load the models properly, but when I export them to FBX, it exports every UV map as a separate material (sometime as many as 64) and when imported in Unreal Engine 4, it will refuse to display more than 8 because that is the limit of Shader Model 5. How does Unity get around this limit?

Here‘s some info for you to look over. If necessary, a program called Irfanview is excellent for converting images from one file type to another.
