Hi,.. This is my first time creating a thread in any kind of forum.... so please bare with me as I have no understanding of forum etiquette and as I have just been given a telling off about it I want to let people know I'm a noob and apologise in advance if I do something that's a no-no in the forums... I don't have really any experience in building except for creating the odd prim objects (and a huge tin man once) for the fun of or convenience, but I usually change the texture on the inside of house and so on... with the introduction of mesh and now mesh objects in the houses too I am drawing a complete blank on how to texture them.... from reading other threads I understand you need the UV maps... which I don't have... I have been given a test pattern but I have no idea how to use it... could anyone help?... Thank you... Wim. :womanembarrassed:
