we are using Ogre3D 1.8, but are looking at some point in the future to upgrade to ogre3d 1.9+

Looks like I have managed to iron out my issues. Basically, I have manually rewritten all of the .material and .mesh.xml files ( thank goodness for Notepad++ and it's search/replace in all files
). Now I can change model & mesh and it works perfectly, including saving the changes to the basic and/or advanced materials to the correct file.I have also managed to save a Preset into my own Preset Library, and reload it once I've shut down and restarted Skyline

PS: What version of Ogre are we using?? as I get a MeshSerializer error when trying to view my Models in TLMeshViewer. I'm also hoping that I can get QtMeshEditor ( ) up and running as this looks ideal for messing around with mesh(es) and material(s).

Thanks for the reply.
I haven't got time to test them all now, but I have checked 1) again. Basically, it seems to be only updating the first Material:
1) Load a Dummy Mesh.
2) Assign a Mesh and it's corresponding Material (e.g. blue faction xxx_b)
3) Tweak Material.
4) Save Material.
5) Save Mesh as a Preset.
6) Load another Dummy Mesh.
7) Assign a Mesh and it's corresponding Material (e.g. green faction xxx_g) NB: the only differences between the Factions are two Textures used to colour specific parts of the Mesh.
8) Tweak Material.
9) Save Material.
Now, when I check the folder where the Materials are, it is only the BLUE Material that is being updated:
Also, the Model in Skyline seems to be a mixture of the two Materials:
Hope this helps??

PS: all Meshes and Materials have been created with the following pipeline:
a) Turbosquid convert .max to .obj
b) I create relevant Materials in Carrara 6 Pro
c) I generate Ogre XML Mesh and Material using Ultimate Unwrap 3D Pro
d) I convert Ogre XML Mesh to normal Mesh using OgreXMLConverter in Skyline
e) I check Models in both Torchlight Mesh Viewer and Nimet
