Hey, Im newish to 3dsmax i understand most tings but there is one ting that has me baffled atm. What i want to do is apply a texture to objects such as wheels,exhausts,etc what i have tryed to do is press M like you do to apply a skin but i have no idea were to go from there. i have looked at a few online tutoirals but they go throught all sorts of mapping and stuff i was hopeing someone here could break it down simply.
Thanks
