I'm pretty new to this whole thing, so I'm still going through tutorials. I found this tutorial that was cool. I liked the first one I did, as it's very in depth and easy to follow.

My problem is that the tutorial was written for Maya 2, and I'm using Maya 6 (we have it here at work).

Can someone help me out and help me figure out Lesson 5 from http://www.ckk.chalmers.se/tutorials/maya/Pages/Lesson5.html

Specifically, I'm trying to do what is here below and couldn't find an analogous way to do it. I looked through the help files and the tutorials that pertained, but none did exactly this or explained it.

Open up the texture view editor by choosing "Edit Polygons->Texture->Texture View". While in the texture view, you can use the standard dolly and track to navigate around. To load an image in the texture view, choose "Images->Load from Disk". Open the "shipcolor.tif". You can now see how the image is projected on the ship.


Thanks.

The texture view is now the UV Texture editor which you can find under the "Window" pulldown menu.
