hi can anyone help me with downloading the textures (in the download section.)

i click the download link and save the file but how do i get round to using it?

do u have to move it into your material library or is it purely a bitmap image to use?

this might sound a bit dumb but ive only been using max a little while so still in the early stages of learning

please help!!!!!!!

If you’re still “in the early stages” of learning Max, you would be well advised to do the tutorials which come with Max. Using bitmaps is a basic skill you need to learn early on.

The simplest way to use a bitmap is to assign it to the Diffuse Map slot of a Standard Material.

Note. If you have the downloaded trial version, the Tutorials are a separate download - see this post for links.
