In the new one I can seem to pop up the same. I try to open the the bitmap thing, but I simply can't find it, could you try to explain or make a vid or something? ;P Or just tell me one. It's Autodesk 3Ds Max 2011

[krimmjow]

was that a goblin from world of warcrafT?

[OriginallyMasked]

[iwkya1]

The version im using is in the title dude. Also I have mentioned the version several times in the comments and the vid info. 2009...

[LiftTruck101]

Have you any experience with the PorMaterials that come with 3ds max 2009... btw all of my materials are standard by default.

[iwkya1]

i use max 2009 design that comes with those mats that are loaded in the editor by default. They are quite handy :)

[lquert]

I´m just staring to use 3d max studio 2009... and is so difficuld... but it looks like maya 8, as I have maya I know how to use max.... thanks for the video...

[killguta]

You can do pretty much everything in 3dsmax...

[TDO615]

u can do any kind of 3d its jsut harder using 3ds max i would recomend Terragen which is free or u can buy a better one Vue 7 xStream

Hey, does anybody know if it is possible to apply multiple bitmap materials to a single object?

I know you can do it using the the material sub object, but thats not with bitmaps :S

I'm trying to model (to animate) a deck of cards, if anybody has a some good advice for this it would be a HUGE help.

[iwkya1]

You can use a multi sub mat for the object and assign different ID's in the face options.

[Barkers87]

Yeah i've done that, an it adds my material to one side of the object, but when i attempt to add my 2nd material to the opposite side it doesnt work and it clears my other material too :S

I have selected the faces and changed the map ID's to 1 and 2 respectively, and also changed the "explicit map channels" accordingly on the material editor.

Any ideas?

[iwkya1]

Ahhh, now i understand what your trying to do. You are working with a 1 sided poly ie a 3d object.. But a playing card isnt 2 dimentional, its 3, hence you cant use a 1 sided poly hehe. Use a box but enter a very thin value to it..

[Barkers87]

Nope sadly that's not the case. I am actually working with a chamfer box. :(

I appreciate your help, i guess i'll check in with my tutor 2mo and see if he can help. I'll let u know what the problem was when ive got it. lol

[kelleyjones123]

i have another problem and would be extremely grateful if you could help

when i add the material to the shape (for example, a leaf onto a box) it streches out the photo, instead of showing it entirely. this has nothing to do with tiling.\

thanks in advance!

[iwkya1]

If its an editable poly or mesh then add a uvw modifier

[kelleyjones123]

you can make it defalt size 1 through material editor options

[snaileri]

Thank you. This helped me.
