View Full Version : Puting 2 textures on a single polygon

Hi everybody,

I'm using 3ds max for quite some time now, and I know the basics of mapping.
My problem is this:

I need to map atleast 2 textures onto single polygon, but subdividing that polygon is not an option.
Also, 1 combined texture (those 2 textures in one) are also not an option unfortunately.
I simply need to place 2 different textures side-by-side onto single polygon.
So I think I would actualy need to create a selection on that polygon somehow, which I didn't manage to do...

Is there anyway to acomplish this?

Thank you

Hi,

i would use a blend material. You only have to define a mask (which describes how max should blend both materials together) and two materials for your different textures. If you want you could nest it many times.
