Im trying to apply a texture to my model but maya isnt converting these j pegs to IFF does anyone know how to convert them or if i have to use photoshop?
I tried a diffrent jpeg and it worked but still doesnt for the cracked wall j pegs i have.

Is there a reason you need them to be in .iff format?
You could convert them in photoshop if you install the .iff plug-in…

Do your .jpg images appear correctly in the hypershade/viewport?
Do you get any error messages when you connect the file node(s) to your shader(s)?
If some .jpg’s are working - and some aren’t - sounds like there something wrong with those files, (there’s a few different formats in the jpg compression that Maya dosen’t like).
Try opening the problem files in your 2D app - and resave them - making sure they are saved as “baseline standard” format, and not “optimized” or “progressive”. I’ve also not tested to see if jpeg2000 is supported by Maya…

there are image conversion utilites that ship with maya.....they are imgcvt.exe and imconvert.exe...they are in the bin folder........they run from a shell window, so they have no user interface.....for info type:
imconvert -h
or
imgcvt -h
in a shell window.

Does anyone know how you can put a whole bunch of small textures on a poly.
