I have started to try and texture my "frst map" and i have a couple of questions:

-I have followed the tutorial correctly and have now ventured into making a plane and editing the vertexes to make hills etc.I am trying to get into the W3D utility to make sure that the collison modes are right for the box which is below the plane, but in the utilites it isn't there. Have i already selected the modes

-Also are there any other tips you can give to me to help me in my future

Thnk you for your patience and i am sorry for asking these questions that you probably find very simple. Im sure you all know what it feels like to be a beginner too, so please be kind and lend your expirence. Thank You.

first -- go to http://modx.renevo.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=10

and get renhelp 1.9

this will help.

Now -- what do you mean? it's not there? What's not there? The mesh? in what program? W3d viewer? Commando?

are you using RenX or Gmax? -- you need to use RenX to get the w3d options...

Well - after you click on the utilites button - hit the "configure button sets" and see if it lists the W3D button. (should say there are 12 buttons)

if it isn't there - you may need to re-install your renegade tools again.

If nothing else is suggested, try installing renx again, I think your looking in the right place.

*wishes he had renx on this computer.*

Have you installed renx and are not working JUST from gmax?? (is your window colour dark green) [Smile]

hmm....maybe my color on my comp is weird but it is greenish-grey. It has been dark green before and it is the same interface as it was when it was dark green, but maybe the color has something to do about it....

sounds like your using gmax -- not renx --

re-install the tools - then make sure you go to the renegade tools entry in your start menu - then hit renx...
