Wings 3D - how to export model with UVs without duplicating textures?

#1

is it possible to export a model from Wings 3D and have links to the existing textures instead of creating new ones?

Oh wow, Wings 3D. Now that’s a name I haven’t heard since… 2010.

As for your question, I managed to look up the documentation and it claims materials are saved to the model.

Unless you are asking for something more sophisticated than this, my answer is that you might be out of luck. Wings 3D is free, but it’s a very old and outdated modeling package.

There are more up to date 3D programs these days that are free, like Blender or even Unreal Engine.

OK thanks

i’m just using it to export some 3ds models as they seem to translate better than using Blender
