I'm trying to texture my weapon model
and I can't find the Property section in the drop down menu
because I don't know which menu is the drop down menu?

Here's a quote from one of the tutorials:
"2. Unique UV's ( in the drop down menu at the top , click on Property> Texture Projection> Unique UV's)"

This is the tutorial link

I'm very sorry to ask this question again (ontop of that it's probably a newb question),
but without a answer I can't get my model ingame!!??
TY for any answers

Well not to have ur hopes and dreams crushed:

this is in the basic XSI mode, third pic is the most important.

Thanks for the help and answer!
This topic is answered and it can be locked
(off topic: wow, that's hard to find, but once I know how to do it, it should be easy)

(p.s. why would you be breaking my dreams and hopes by saying that?)

More like saying it so that ur hopes and dreams AREN'T broken XD

Oh, sorry I totally misunderstood that.
LOL
Thanks for all the help again everyone!

Here is a pic of my texture aplication image: and yes I'm using a stock texture, but I just want to figure how to apply then later I will try and get a better looking one.

my problem is that the texture is never applyed as you can see.
TY for any help

Change anyone of the view screens to show texture decal, for example the User one where is says shaded click on that pull down and select Texture Decal.
Another thing, just looking at the picture you haven't selected a texture projection yet either.

Ok, I'll see what the tut says again and try later, but when I exported I got this problem:"image below"
do you think this problem was because of that TY for the help

p.s. I alread got a texture projection but after pressing "propertys > texture projction > unique uvs" nothing happened and I don't think any popup, poped up like the tut sayed.

/Facepalm

You gave it a UV property but still didn't actually UV map it, you need to press Alt+7 to open the texture projection editor and map the parts of the model to the texture. Go read a basic XSI tut before trying to export stuff into the game, it'll be alot easier.

I did read it, but didn't do it because my pc locks up when ever I open that texture projection window thing with alt+7.

what should I do?

Throw your early 90's PC out the window and go buy a new one because out of all the major 3d apps XSI runs the smoothest on low end PC's.

my pc is fine I think:
2.8 ghz processor
2.5 gigs ram
128 mb video card with directX 9
Windows xp sp2

Could be the viedo card?
p.s. I'm not trying to say it not my pc just trying to help narrow the problem
Well anyway if anyone else has any idea of the problem please post!
TY

@newguy99
I merged your topic with your original texturing topic since it obviously wasn't solved.

I suggest you re-read the tutorial as many times as it takes until you get it right, the process is quite simple, oh and you will need to use the Texture Editor at some point so you'll need to get that working.

Ok, I'll do what I can
TY
p.s. update: I'm moving away from modeling and back toward stock prop usage in map. Also I'll try and use other people assets (giving credit in readme).
So no problems Thanks for all the help all
