Need Some Basic Help with Texturing
Hi,
I'm trying to fix some texturing issues in an aircraft carrier I modeled in SketchUp and imported into AC3D to add some animations. Basically, I want to select some parts of the model and apply texture using the same 1024 x 1024 .png texture file that I used in SketchUp. Below is a link to a brief video of what I've tried so far. Please look at it and tell me (a) have I done the right steps so far? and (b) if so, what's the next step? I.e., What button do I click, etc., to add the texture? The steps in the video are: (1) I selected the object mode; (2) selected the object I want to texture (it took two tries; selected the wrong part the first time); (3) opened the Texture Coordinate Editor to show that no texture is shown (blank window); (4) went to Texture and selected the texture path at the bottom of the dropdown window; (5) opened the Texture Coordinate Editor again. This time, the texture is visible; (6) made the rectangle small enough to fit within the gray texture patch that is the color I want the object to be.
