cdo947214 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I created an interior cell, and I clicked generate havoc based navmesh. Why is it taking so long to generate? It has been going for over 30 minutes now, and it says "Navmesh generation: fixing T-junctions on 53226 triangles." It's not that big of a cell. What is it trying to navmesh the entire game?

NaiRae Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 FWIW I have never had luck generating navmeshes. It usually freezes or crashes before finishing. My PC isn't the greatest so I have no idea if this is typical or not. Doing it by hand gets faster the more you do it, and comes out with better results. If you're going to making a lot of things that need it it's worth practicing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urtho Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I never use auto-generation for navmesh work. In theory it's faster than doing it by hand but in practice unless you have a very basic cell or exterior world landscape area you're working on you'll usually end up having to go through and manually fix problems and outright errors the generator creates when making the navmesh. So is it really saving you time? Not in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kesabelus Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 (edited) Have you tried recast-based generation? That's always worked for me, although you do have to tweak a few things afterward. I use the settings listed in Bethesda's navmeshing tutorial. Edited July 15, 2017 by kesabelus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
