I have just recently "sort of" got the hang of 3d modeling, enough so that I can create my own characters/ weapons and structures. I think I also kinda figured a way to texture them. (at least in 3d canvas). Basically all I did was edited some textures in photoshop and "pasted" them onto the faces of my model.

What I want to know is...keeping in mind I know almost nothing about texturing...how to create the thextures that are combined with the .x file to go into the game. I dont want a plain white character in my game, so how do I create the targa file or whatever that is necessary?

My model is already textured but like I said it doesnt seem to be a seperate file, its just stuck to my .3dc model.

How are the textures I see in the default FPSC characters made? It seems complicated.

Do I have to start over and re texture it with a different method?

Duke,
