Help Please!!! I have 3ds max 2008 and am trying to complete a lab for school in 3ds max fundamentals book pg 463 adding atmospheric haze. Im a newb but know some of the basic controls. I understand what the book is telling me to do but when it says quick render I do so and it comes up with lots of missing external files. textures I believe. so instead of just copying the city directory to my hard drive. Which I did. I also copied the entire cd to my hard drive two folders and made paths to both folders when it is looking for the missing files. Now it only has one missing file which is 3dsmax\maps\backgrounds\meadow1.jpg I have looked everywhere cannot find file. I found something that says meadow1.jpg in the material editor grabed it and put it on the circle things for textures right? the preview of this texture is black. It is supposed to be a sky texture with clouds because that is what is missing from the scene. after I applied it tried to quick render again and still missing the file. no luck also found a script which I tried running called relink bitmaps v1.15 hopeing it would seek out missing texture. any ideas thanks in advance to all you 3d gurus out there
