Texturing

[legeonation]

If you want to make custom textures, create a UV map in your 3D modeling program. Export your UV map into a 2D painting program such as Photoshop. Create your texture. Place your texture onto your ship as a targa file. Save out an additional texture file in a DDS format. The plugin is available for photoshop at the Nvidia home page. This will allow you to create the correct texture files for Freelancer. Then Export your ship model from your 3D modeling program into milkshape. Change your targa file to the DDS file. The export the CMP ship model and MAT file. If you need to scale up your ship scale in milkshape. Finally you can view your finished ship in HardCMP which is available at Lancer's reactor.
