Export to 3ds max

hi

What is a better way to export a file with mapping to 3ds max 2017?

Thank you

What have you tried? .3ds and .fbx might be good options.

Are you already mapped?

Or do you recommend some max or rhino mapping process?

Obj is the best choice.

because ?

because it works better with big meshes. and keeps the mapping coordinates,

But need to do a mapping in Rhino before exporting?

I tested the export here by .obj and it was not even

Not necessarily, if you want you can do it in max but, since the rhino nurbs to mesh sucks, if you have to unwrap, you better unwrap the rhino nurbs inside rhino and then export …

I tried here to text with the automatic mapping of the rhino and it does not work

The texture does not stay uniform

What do you recommend ?

it depends on the object you have to export and the texture you need to apply.

I need at least a pcture, :wink:

If I want to do the mapping of the object in rhino then export in .obj to max:
Which method do you recommend? Do you have a tutorial?

look at this tutorial from byan james… :wink:

Very good this tutorial, thank you

I have here a complex object made in rhino and wanted to use a texture: 2d checker of the own rhino in this object
The problem is that I can not leave this texture uniform on the object

Is there a way to make this texture even?

upload the rhino file… i ll take a look

I think it is what he wants, how do you place the seams?
