run through this tut: http://www.onnovanbraam.com/index.php?main=tutorials&group=tire-texture


I get the tracks on right, but as soon as I smack on the side gfx, it screws up everything!! :( no map fits anymore, and I really don't know why, it should work, it's 2 different materials dammit! :scream:

If any of you max users out there can run through this tut, and holler back if you encouter the same problem, that'd be sweet, then maybe I could mail they guy telling him something's wrong... :-\



thanks

[eilsoe]

Hehe, I remember that tut! The alloys suck, but the tire mapping is something I still use.

[DDD]

it worked for me althought htere are somethings id do diff.

[eilsoe]

yeah the alloys for one :P

ironi: the tire track mapping is awesome :) I'm going to try to model a car sometime soon (if it's possible... for me...)

better start small with a tire :P

[ironikart]

I reckon it's a pretty good introduction to using multi-sub object materials and subject id's for mapping more complex objects. It takes a while to get the hang of (I'm still learning). Good luck

Hey soulty thanks for that link....I have been trying to find that post forever
