    Make sure you have applied transformations in blender

    That is for fixing the fitting, for the texture, make sure that in the materials tab for blender, a material is chosen, and that it doesn't have .001, or 0.002, etc, after the material name. If you aren't sure by what I mean, check out the texturing link in the original post. If you have any more problems maybe DM or check out my parts tutorial (link in profile), I might be able to help you with other things

    probably all you will have to do to do that is take the steps on the first post, but instead of modeling a part you will just need to create a texture

    I've done everything in the guide. My part shows up and I can select it, however it is invisible. Have I done something wrong in blender or the jbeam file?

    before you export it, select all the objects, go to the "object" tab, then press "apply", and then press "all transforms".

    I have followed the guide as best i could, however my part is still invisible in the game. I have tried applying all transforms yet it is still invisible. I believe my Jbeam file must be the cause. I have uploaded the files if someone could take a look at my jbeam, it would be very helpful.
