I'm trying to use textures to apply logos and text to the side of a model. I made sure that the background of the texture is the same RGB color as the material. Unfortunately the texture is clearly delineated on the model. Suggestions for what I'm doing wrong? Recently had your issue. Found that playing with the ambient got me closer to a match. Not perfect, but closer. |

Slight traffic accident with my rickshaw required a trip to the shop:
 Only three frames in the gif file, so my fire's not working, but such is life. |

My version of Anim8or seems to act weird when I try to generate a second video without closing and reopening the program. I'm thinking something is being "left open" when the program finishes making the movie? I'm talking, here, about generating the sequence of individual images. Also seem to recall that, say, popping back to figure or sequence modes before the second video may help. Not sure of that, however.
Also, in passing, where'd everybody go? |

I've been playing with decal and alpha channel stuff recently. You might want to see if this might solve the problem? Again, hope someone with more knowledge will respond. Forum, at the moment, seems eerily quiet. Not sure why, or where everybody went. Did Steve take all the OGs to Italy for the summer? |

Friend commented that my "eyeballs" could also serve as headlights.
 I can't seem to quite get the hang of lights in Anim8or. |

I think I figured out what I was doing wrong. When adding textures you have to load the texture in both the ambient AND diffuse channels. I wasn't doing that, only the ambient.

It took me a little while to see the button, too. I expected it to be down at the bottom, not in the center.
