Deleting textures

Post by daniel »

hello,
how can i delete already applied textures from ojects, so that i can put new ones on them. I have the problem that for some reason although i apply new textures in XSI, the changes neither appear in ZE, nore in msh-viewer nore in-game. I'm pretty sure i did everything right.with freezing, exporting , etc.

help please

Open up your scene explorer, browse to polygon mesh->clusters, and then choose a cluster on your model to delete.

Make sure your textures are frozen. The easiest way to do this is export your model as an .obj file and re-import, although you can also go into the texture coordinates options and freeze them there directly.

Sometimes if you tile a texture too much (or it extends too far into the -U and -V quadrant), visualmunge will read the texture incorrectly and your texture will be stretched ingame. The solution is either to tile less or to move your texture into the +U,+V quadrant.

still didn't work.
well i'm using mod tools xsi 6.01, so i think the .obj thing wont't work.
Isn't there any other way to it with xsi 6.01 ? to completely delete ALL textures from all ojects in the scene ?
( something like e.g. a clean-tool in visual munge)

please help
