[Huddy]

HI there

 

i,m working on a motox track

 

but having trouble with it as new to all this and been using max for month now.

 

making my map using a plan 64x64 segs and displace with grayscale image.

all good till i unwrap UVW and add my texture its all messed up.

all messed up. but when i put in game with col and that i can walk on it but texture is messed up.

 

if i don,t unwrap it its all good .but no good in game as can,t walk on it .

.

 

 

can someone if they know what i,m going on about help me or point me to some tuts what will help me.

 

i,ve been searching the net for days but can,t find any help .

 

i,ve got all the game side of things sorted making the col and puting its were i waht it , just the map making side.

Im a beginner with max so Im not sure if this is the right way to fix it but after you apply the unwrap uvw modifier click on edit, then in the edit window go to mapping in the menus at the top and flatten mapping but you might have to move it around in the edit window to get it how you want it.

wait, be more clear, the texture looks fine in the bottom picked, and must be mapped already. If not it must be UVW-MAPPED, not unwrapped, on the same x y or z as it is in that bottom pic. Unwrap is for tuning it. After it is mapped. The top pic looks as if it's mapped on the wrong axis.

Awwww but it looks even better now you bitch! It'll just be a small part with a big huddy sign over it

I kinda want to get the community in on my mod, one awesome piece at a time Pwease? I won't even add it for sooooo long.

 

EDIT: or how about I make a space that people can download your mod and install it to easily by uncommenting entries I make for it in one of the CNG IPls?

 

EDIT AGAIN: @XRK: hey man, you were right up top by the way I remember that tip

 

EDIT: yet AGAIN!!:

but you can add the track to your mod if u want it

 

Thank You
