Msamir Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hi guys, I want to put materials on a model that was imported from autocad so the problem is when i place a material on the model the whole thing gets the material so if i want for example only a window gets the material what should i do ? in other way i cant make the model explode . So should i convert the whole model to editable poly or mesh or what should i do ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Nelson Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 If you have regular solids & surfaces in autocad, you need to put the different types of objects on different layers. So all windows would be on a layer, doors on a layer, etc. Then when you import to Max you will be able to assign each material according to whatever layer it's on.
