I was curious if someone could please help me with baking textures in 3ds Max 6. I made my model of a sign and it has two seperate bmps for its texture I was able to bake the texture but when I apply it or load up the .x in FPSC with the .fpe pointed to the baked texture, the texture is not mapped correctly.

Basically I need some help setting the settings for panda .x exporter and baking/applying baked textures.

Hooray I did it ... but I had to custom edit the uvw maps and I'm sure there is some way to avoid having to do this. If anyone knows how please tell.

Yet another update if anyone sees this as useful:
To not have to custom edit the uvw maps I changed the spacing under the
Render to textures menu to 0. This seemed to resolve my issue

panda settings are on http://www.fpscreator.com

as for baking...why do you need to bake the texture? i always make stuff in max without baking the texture, and the texture is fine....

The only reason I can think of is to make a single texture out of a multi-material model. But usually it works better to just to do it manually.

Or maybe to bake in specular highlights if you have lights set up? Hmmm..
