Why485, that is EXACTLY what is happening…… i recently got 3ds max 9 and it says that the UVW information is missing from the Lightwave files…

Now i have a NEW problem >.<
_To fix this, i have to know how to:

-Fix the UVW of the lightwave-editted models (in lightwave preferably, or in milkshape, or in 3ds max…… any one, really)
or
-Figure out how to export 3ds max 9 models into milkshape. (this entails rebuilding all the models, which isnt THAT big a problem, I would be willing to do this if it would work out in the end)

What do other modders use to make freelancer models? what programs and plugins?
I cant use gmax for some reason (stupid vista), but I CAN use milkshape, and 3ds max so far, havent tried any others._

Hi, I have a problem…. Im trying to make a new model for freelancer. It was exported into Lightwave, editted, then exported to milkshape, and when I try to make the textures show up, THIS happens…

No idea why, can anyone with modelling/texturing experience help me out here? I want to use original FL textures for this model, but when I load them, they come out like that.
