Rendertotexture And Export As Collada

[jerryj]

Hi,

I am new to Max and I am trying to export a collada file. The model ends up in the collada but the links to the texture jpg's that I save don't, so I must be doing something wrong.

What I did is:

creat a box on stage.
add a marble material to it in the Material editor
then, with the box selected I choose UV Unwrap from the modifiers list
then i click Edit
i choose Face sub-object mode
i Flatten the map
then i open Rendertotexture with the box selected
i choose an Output Path
i Add a the complete map
then under file name and type i save the texture as a jpg
then I click Render, and when it say I didn't choose a target map slot (?) i click continue

Then I save my max file
i export the file under Export as a collada file.

But when i open the dae I can't see a reference to the jpg.

Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? I have been trying this for a long time now ,

thanks a lot,

Jerryj.
