Hey all, and first off, thank you for reading!
Okay heres the deal... Ive made a model and is all fully textured (I did this in Anim8or)
When i come to export the model, I do so in 3ds format.. this is the problem... I did Evenging Eagles tutorial, and it turned out fine and dandy.. Great! But in AEs tutorial, he only used one texture... I have used several in mine and dont know what to do next (When it comes to converting 3ds to .x).
This is my first proper model, without tutorials etc, so I would very much appreciate being talked through these last fews stages. Of course once finished, It will be free to download and use.
Attached is a picture of the list of Textures, and next to it is the model
Hope to hear from someone soon!

(Sorry if there are any mistakes, i was typing fairly fast)

if they are properly assigned within the model, then leave the "textured" variable in the .fpe blank

you put the textures in the sme folder as the model and specify no texture in the entity maker and it works, that what i did to get a helicopter fpsc ready.

Even when I i put all the textures in the folder (Same name as the jpegs while UV mapping, but in TGA format) it still didnt work.
See Attached (Screen while converting, and the folder with my model/textured ready to beceom entities)

Edit: No-one any tips?
