Hi all...

I'm having a strange problem. After having made a model in 3dsmax, I'm using the pandaX converter to make it into a .X file.
I'm then aplying a texture onto the model, but the texture isn't being applied....
I'm using the same code on a model that came with the cd(ship.x) and the texture is being correctly applied....
code below:


Any help welcome....

Thanks,

Fang

1) make sure your texture is in the same folder where the model is
2) set the UV mapping in Max even tho your are not texturing there or DB won't texture
3) Panda isn't working with Max3

get DBConv.exe somewhere (3ds to .X converter from DB Classic) and use that.
Or go here and get winconv3ds

If you are trying to apply the texture in dbp then don't do it in max it is easier then just load the model directly into dbp.

Just apply a uvw map modifier then adjust it till you get the result you want, that should work.

Yes same promlems had I. PandaX never worked for me.

I found great success with this .x exporter.

The set of converters from Microsoft. Includes 3D Studio Max and Maya exporters (plug-in)
