Applying Texture

I just purchased a 3d model online. The file formats are 3dm and Obj, and it comes with an accompanying texture file (rar). Naturally, when I open the file and render directly, there is no texture. How do I apply the texture from the rar file? I am using V-Ray.

you have to load textures (inside the rar file) in a v-ray material and aplly it to the model.

It’s already mapped, just needs the material

I’m so sorry to ask this but I’m relatively new to V-ray. How do I load an rar. file into vray? I’m not seeing the option when I try to import.

rar file is a compressed file, like a zip, you have to uncompress it before using a software like 7zip (it’s opensource).

Inside the folder you should find some textures (bitmaps)
