materials error

Quote: --- Original message by: bobbysoon
for each mesh in your scene,
1. select it
2. Under the Selection rollout, select Face mode, the red triangle between Edge and Polygon
3. click Unhide All in the same rollout
4. de-select Faces mode
5. press m. In the materials browser dialog that pops up, click Pick
6. pick the mesh you're working on

7. for each Sub Material listed in the Multi/Sub-Object
7.1 click the Select By ID button in the Surface Properties rollout
7.2 enter the ID and click OK
7.3 click Hide

when you've hidden all faces with IDs listed in your multi/sub, select all (edit menu). If you've selected anything, those faces need new sub materials in the multi/sub, or their IDs need to be changed to one(s) that are in the multi/sub
If no faces were selected, move on to the next object, from line one, above

thanks that worked. but a soon as i made the collision geometry i got another error

Couldn't read map file './toolbeta.map'
### ERROR failed to create intermediate model 'kzcm\scenery\albatross\albatross'

it might have something to do with the model having the ramps linked wrong ill go ckeck it.

do the model command again then import the nameofobject.wrl and look to see where the problems are.

Sounds like your running an OS with UAC (vista/7) there should be some form of capatibility view button so you can see files that UAC is messing with (idk what exactly the button says since I never use UAC, but it should be top right area in windows explorer when your in your HCE folder)
