Navmesh tutorial - DRAFT

staylor18 · 2024-01-25, 10:53

For the last few months on and off I have been working on a navmesh tutorial. It is in two parts.
Part 1 is how to make the navmesh with some general information.
Part 2 are some tips and tricks and a troubleshooting section.
In February I am going to try and make a video tutorial on how to use Blender to edit the navmesh.
All going well everything should be done and released at the start of March.

The DRAFT versions of the PDFs are here:
PART 1

PART2

I have had somebody proof read most of Part 1 for grammar (they have not made a navmesh before). It is quite a large tutorial, but if you feel like giving it a proof read and then sending me corrections or suggestions that would be appreciated.

Thanks Ason

I have just uploaded the final version. The two PDFs can be found here on modDB:

There is also a video tutorial for Blender explaining how to make edits to the navmesh object (obj) files here:

Hopefully it will be of use to somebody. It all I have learnt about navmeshing the past few months.
