I used to be into 3d studio max a fair amount back in grade 9 or 10 and a bit in grade 11 for school ----------------------------------- .hack Wed Feb 11, 2004 11:03 pm ----------------------------------- not a bad job, a good way to texture something is to sometimes find a picture of the ground with snow on it and copy a large patch of the snow out fo the pic, paste it as a smaller image, save and use that for a texture. the snomap needs some bump mapping, but thats not to shabby!
