Thats pretty much exactly what i need... it takes a lot of getting used to but i think it will work... do you by any chance know how to scale/re-orient the textures? cuz at the moment im just texturing a sword which doesnt need a lot of detail, but in the future if I was texturing guns and stuff where I needed a lot of precision then would u know how to do it?

TIA

Milkshape does support .x files. To import .x, go to Tools->DirectX Mesh Tools. Then click the yellow folder button to open your .x file, and then click the button with the disk w/ a line on it to import it into your project. To export, click File->Export->DirectX(JT).

DeleD, free and easy (if you read the help file)I like it because you can texture by surface or poly instead of messing around with a wrapper. It doesn't do animated stuff though :/

I find the best way to texture is by dropping a real object on a flat bed scanner ....mind you donuts make for sticky scanners hehehe


My first effort at 3D many moons ago.

It's funny how doing 3D models makes you look at the world in a whole new way...

every time I see a bannana I now think...

..ah.. pentagon cylinder with tapered ends and a bend modifier
