Well I downloaded Motary Battlestar rims and I'm woundering if I can use them in a render?? If I can, anyone mind letting me know how it's done.

Ok where excatly do I do that at??

Aren't those wheels for Bespoke? If so, no, you can't use them.. but there's shedloads of wheels available on the net.. which you can then add with the method Davo mentions.

Is it possible to use the Bespoke rims in 3D Studio Max? If it is, how?

Nah it's not, or at least, not without some serious coding to extract the wheel info from memory and create a valid 3D mesh from it.

Bespoke just changes some memory registers, the wheels never actually exist per-se.

So you say I can use any kind of wheel as long as it's an image, correct??? And I'm using blender 2.42, do you still use the same process that davo mentioned??

Image? No... it has to be a 3d model. Im not shure but I guess you can import *.3ds files in Blender. Search http://www.turbosquid.com for some stuff. Or get some rims ("Felgen") here. http://kr-downloads.de/CMS/ind ... &gid=18&Itemid=29
The archives include 3ds files.

Well so far by uploading the 3ds file first and then loading the .odj file after is working......I wish I wasnt a blender user but I cant get 3DS Max for some reason..... And I'm not going to risk a torrent Version, So I'll have to use blender until I can afford to buy 3DS Max
