Assigning different Textures & parallax maps to same obj

Twinsen · Post by **Twinsen** » Sun Nov 13, 2005 10:55 am

Um, what i want to do is say load my level in, i know how to do that but what i want is say to have paralax mapping for the floor, and paralax for the walls and maybe 1 for the roof, problem is that i want a differnt map for each one, so ground would be brick, walls would be concrete, i was wondering if its possible to somehow set it up to allow me to do this, or is the only way to create the walls, ground as seperate files and then position them accoridently in my game.

P.S i no how to texture it via UVW mapping in max, but what i want is to apply a different paralax map for different surfaces on the same model.

maybe there is some thing in max that allows you to set up unique Id's and then only apply ur texture to that specific ID.

thankz 4 ur time.

you just answered yourself....do a multysub material and get the texture you want by
video::SMaterial& ISceneNode::getMaterial( s32 i).Texture2 = normalMap
