I want to make my levels from .X files.
I bought cshop and it dosnt work.

Ive tried deleD and I ant for me.

Worldcraft is amazing but i cant export them to .X
I can export to .map->then to->.X hurray!but no textures!

I use Gmax but I cant get it to show textures in the perspective view when uvw mapping brushes.So thats not gonna work.

JTedit also wont work.
I also have LithUnwrap but I dont think I can texture complex .X files.
I have milkshape but i cant use it! arrrhhh!im afraid of it!!!

what should I do?
I have beautiful levels made with no textures on them.
It hurts so much to see them untextured!

Its so much hard work,I cant find a programme thatle work on my pc that will make levels easily and also texture them.
any ideas?

Ok, sometimes there is an easy fix or two for texture problems in .X.

1. Make sure the textures are in the same directory as the .X file.
2. Try to open the .X file with WordPad or NotePad. If the .X file was saved in plain text (the most common method), you can search for quotation marks (") and this will take you directly to the path data for your textures. If this is an absolute path, you can edit the file to make it a relative path.

For example:

...
Material x3ds_mat_Material__1 {
0.537255, 0.196078, 0.196078, 1.000000;;
25.000000;
0.898039, 0.898039, 0.898039;;
0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000;;
TextureFilename {
"C:\MY_TEXTURES\ALIEN3.BMP";
}
}
...

could be changed to:

...
Material x3ds_mat_Material__1 {
0.537255, 0.196078, 0.196078, 1.000000;;
25.000000;
0.898039, 0.898039, 0.898039;;
0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000;;
TextureFilename {
"ALIEN3.BMP";
}
}
...
