| Variations of this tutorial can be found around the web, most
deal with importing Poser figures. However, I decide to include this as a companion
piece to my UVMapping an Amorphium object tutorial. First
you will need an object that has UV mapped texture coordinates and a texture map.
One of the pock guys on my pokemon page will do.
I have included a large number of screen shots so please be patient. Some of the
screenshots have been thumbnailed. Click on the picture to see a full screen view.

Highlight diffuse and ambient by selecting the circles in the first

This screen will appear, (actual texture will vary). Select P to
change it to a picture editor. Now select the second sphere at the top. |

This will bring up this screen. Load your texture by selecting the
Load at the upper left side of the screen. Next select the black dot over the middle

The middle screen should be black.
The right screen should look like the left.

this useful. |
