3ds max!?

Ok.. i know i asked this is the off topic forum... but can somebody please tell me how to get the dam car and the textures in to 3D s Max?! please...

i could reply use the search button
but it also would like to know so... someone plz answor his question

i did use it.. couldn't find anything..

Very simple

You open the shape in Zmodeler. There you put all the textures on it (including cockpit_damage)

En export to *.3ds file.

Import that in 3dsMax and here you are.

Good luck

yes i did that but parts of the car is missing and the texture isn't on the car once it's in 3ds max

that happened to me too

The texture has to be in the same map (directory) as the .3d File is.

Next to that I always make the car as one. So Select All in Zmodeler en than Unite ?? or something. Give it a new name and export it.

Just try and render.

ohhh... thanx alot man..

man.. it doesn't work it's still the same.. does the texture have to be tga or bmp!? ohh.. and there are still some parts of the car missing

3DMax can support both tga and bmp. You'll need to modify material editor in 3DMax if 3ds file mapping texture name incorrectly, then enable that material (press a button in the material toolbar, refer to 3DMax doc). To view scene in texturizing mode, click a small button on top-left corner on every 3DMax's viewports, select approriate view mode with texture.

In reality, doesn't matter who's right but most important is who's left.

Use BMP, the TGA has a Alpha channel and 3dsMax reacts on that. If you want to have a nice render you should not use TGA. Convert them to BMP and here you are.

Meaby I mail you a rar from me...

thanx madman...but uhm.. to be honest i can't find those things.. whell actually the approriate view mode with texture thingy....

@joostingh

Whast sort of rar?

ok i managed to get the texture in.. but i still have the problem with the parts of the car.. there missing... ohh... and how can i make the car stand on some kind of surfece..

Sorry, wrong info. To show texture, from material editor turn-on a button with blue-white box icon. To view full texturized mesh, right-click on label at every viewport label (left, right, perspective, etc).

ohh.. yeah i noticed.. but the texture isn't the problem any more... it's the car now... stupid thing... only parts of it show..

try to rename your gp4 objects just before exporting them in 3ds format. many names are too long for 3ds filter so being cutted. if you dont need separable objects in 3ds. merge all objects to one only.
normals are handled in different way by zmod/3ds if an object is invisible in 3ds try to flip the normals.

YES IT WORKED!!! Thanx shuttle...

lol marko, i told you rendering in 3D Studio Max wasn't gonna be easy

ohh.. god damn it! now i can't get the damn textures on the damn car!

madman.. that doesn't work.. man this sucks!

Poor Marko :P
