This tutorial will show you how to make your first VR model.
|
|
For the sake of this tutorial we will be editing the right hand model.
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
This tutorial makes use of the program [Blender](https://www.blender.org/download/), make sure you have it before following this tutorial.
|

|
## Viewing the model in Blender
|
|
|
|
First you need to import the model into Blender:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your model is now imported but it misses a texture.
|
|
To add a texture you will go to the Shading tab in blender.
|
|
There you are going to add a texture element like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In that element you press open and select your texture in our case it is `something\VRpackTemplate\textures\hologram_hands.png`.
|
|
Make sure you change linear to closest, otherwise your texture will look blurry.
|
|
In the end it will look like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now its time to add the texture to the models material.
|
|
You hold the yellow dot and connect it to the other yellow dot like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If everything went good your model should now look like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Editing the model
|
|
|
|
With editing the model you have almost total freedom, the only requirement is that the model only uses 1 texture.
|
|
|
|
### Editing the model (easy)
|
|
|
|
Since this is the easy tutorial, we will show you how to make the hand into an arm.
|
|
|
|
First we need to figure out the dimensions of this object.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This image shows us that 3 pixels is equivalent to 18.75 meters in Blender, an arm is 12 pixels long so this means an arm is `4 * 18.75 = 75 meters` in Blender.
|
|
When editing the dimensions it will look like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If we import it into minecraft the arm will be to far away. This is because the original model is made for a hand not an arm. So we need to move it `3 * 18.75 = 56.25 meters` down.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Texturing
|
|
|
|
Since this is an arm we will use the steve arm model, you import it the same way like we did above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now you might notice your texture is stretched out. to fix this we will go to UV-editing and edit the uv map.
|
|
UV-editing looks almost the same to blockbench.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Its handy to turn on this magnet looking icon so its more precise.
|
|
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
We start with selecting the top and the bottom of the hand.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next we select the move tool.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now we move the top face and bottom face to the top of the texture.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The same for the sides of the arm.
|
|
|
|
Your new uv map should look something like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If we look how the arm look we see all is now fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Export it!
|
|
|
|
It is time to now export your model first put the steve arm texture inside `VRpackTemplateRP\textures`.
|
|
Call it `hologram_hands.png`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now lets export the model.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Call the model `hologram_hand_right.obj`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Testing it in game
|
|
|
|
Load the pack into minecraft and try it out if it looks like this you succeeded in this tutorial!
