Default hey dennis.

hey dennis. I am now learning how to texture. woot. I have a suggestion and I most people would agree with me. do you think you can make a plugin I dunno how hard this would be for you to do. but on the TCE. I would like to be able to texture a single surface instead of having to selecte an object. for instance I would like to selecte a single surface and put an indivdual texture on it. also on the T.C.E do you think you can have the users load there textures on to the T.C.E itself.

Make any corrections to the following statements. I'm not sure if I'm correct at all: That would require that each surface be given its own data like objects. That would cause a lot of grief for the computer.

hmmm well. I have also found out. that with each object you can select a certain surface and apply the texture to it. Note T.C.E must be opened for it to work.

If you want to set the same texture to repeat on each surface, just use the Set planar texture coordinates plugin.
