hartog 0 Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 the first part of mikes tut tells you how to set up max. the txt files you are looking for are on the IT Cd under the Extras folder. i don't remeber in which folder after that. but if you look in those 5 folders it is in there. Hartog good luck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zeko 33 Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Go to IT CD, then browse for Extras>RSB editor>RSB editor>projects Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Worm 0 Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 It's in there somewhere. Worst case, stick this inside Notepad and name it Ikesurfaces:- Carpet 0 Concrete 1 Wood 2 Metal 3 Asphalt 4 Sand 5 LowGrass 6 HighGrass 7 Puddle 8 Water 9 Drywall 10 "Thin Metal" 11 "Thick Metal" 12 "Metal Gas Tank" 13 "Steam Pipe" 14 "Electrical Panel" 15 Snow 16 "Safety Glass" 17 "Bullet Resistant Glass" 18 Ice 19 Mud 20 Glass 21 Foliage 22 Gravel 23 "Glass Shards" 24 "Creaky Wood" 25 "Deep Sand" 26 "Baked Clay" 27 end HitEnter after end BTW IIRC there's an update patch somewhere which allows you to xport detail textures correctly, or something like that.

Zeko 33 Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 U can try Javaman's Smart Tools v2 for 3DSM. It will make your modding a little easier http://www.fileplanet.com/dl.aspx?/planetr...art_toolsv2.zip Put the file in X:\3dsmax\scripts\startup where X is your hard drive. U'll see a new menu in Max after u start it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
