World Space not working

I am trying to save 2 TP Groups as one mesh in World Space but am running into issues. Initially it worked for me without any issues but I made some adjustments to my TP system and now when Xmesh meshes the groups the resulting cache is saving way out of place. Anyone have any idea why this might be happening?

Hey Joel,

I remember some strangeness with TP where the transform of the TP object could affect the final result, thus requiring the XMesh Loader to be placed where the TP icon was instead of 0,0,0.
So either try moving the TP icon to 0,0,0 before meshing, or try placing the XMesh Loader where the TP icon was at the time of saving…

Cheers,
Bobo

Thanks for the advice Bobo! Yeah it was definitely something askew on the TP side. In my viewport TP would appear normal, but when rendered, my particles would appear somewhere else. After rebuilding the system everything appears to be working properly now through Xmesh.

Thanks again!
