And this is a reference pic I'm using:

But still, atm I'm a bit of trouble, the texture is showing on the right side, but at the left side:

Anyone maybe knows how to fix it ^^ I don't know if it matters or not, but in 3DS Max, the right side of the scythe model is "gray" but now looking at his left side, that part is completely "black" . I don't know how it became like that, but help is appreciated ^^

Edit: Looks like the "black" parts are indeed causing it, I don't know why and how it become "black" in some parts. I just deleted some mesh and tried it again from scratch, but the result still remains the same, the black face. Anyone with experienceon 3DS Max 2009 knows how to fix it? It looks like that it's happening with meshes that are symmetrical.

Quote:Because there are seperated sections nowadays, for example the so-called "advanced model editing" section contains world edits, and the "simple model edits" conclude model swaps, reskins, and even custom models...

O well, doesn't botter me really, but looks like that in this section you can post stories and previews of model edits, but no model edits anymore with a DL link.

Quote: Hey soul. Why didnt you just ask me!? LOL

When you're creating your UVW map, select all the faces on the model that are not being properly textured and simply create a planar map out of that, then in your UVW map put that selection (the side of your model) above the other part. Now you have a map for the opposite side.

If you're lost, just PM me a link to the model and I'll map it for you ^_^ ~ Then I can send it back [Image: smile.png] -- btw, how's your sweet shoulder model coming?

Quote:Ghehe hi also, and reason is because I first wanted to see if I can do it myself and then gonna PM ya around...well if I give up Tongue and with the shoulder it's all fine, 80% done, only need to transparent it and then it's finished. But I paused that project because I wanted to go on with this, and ty for the info gonna try it myself out now ^^

But now other question, how do you seperate 2 meshes? I've attached a mesh onto another mesh but I can't figure out how to cut them both, tried the detach as clone and element, but then it still is considered as 1 mesh. Wait, here's a screenie bout it:

Quote:Ghehe thx for replies guys, and thx to Synthblade for helping me further ^^ planning to release it in a day or 3, depends when I get the texture done lol.

And sneakzz, you never saw a "scythe" before or don't know what it is called? Or more importantly, can you even read, it clearly said "Soul Eater Scythe model" . Well can't blame yer eyes tho it is the title...unless you random click and say useless opinion, but o well. And btw, mind telling what is so "extremely ugly" then? I can also say that you are a plain leecher that doesn't intend to contribute and leech the crap out of things....altho that's the truth but still you know what I'm talking bout.

I just basically hate that people give negative opinions and then not saying WHY they find it like that, like, how the hell must I suppose to work with if someone just go around and say"OMGZ DUDEZ THAT IS FUGLY AS HELL!" , that isn't very helpfull in a way. If you give negative opinion, just do it constructive and don't go around and spam it.
