Is this possible without tool giving me error alarms ?

I merged another map model i made in 3DS using Import > Merge


Can i export this without attaching the 2 using Edit Geometry > Attach, or Welding some edges together ?

Can i just use the Attach option without gluing the boxes together ?

Or do I need to make 2 separate frame boxes ?

Yes
either link one model to another then link to frame or link both models to frame

Thanks

ok, they are both textured and the IDs and map editors are clashing, can this be fixed without reassigning IDs and going over the UVW map again ?

No probably not
Just use the select by id, then give that selection a new id#

I did just that

I noticed that the merged objects Textures and IDs aren't showing up in the Map Editor

The First Object is from 1 to 18, so i put the other Objects ID Numbers 19 to 25

They Both have a +sky on ID 1 though

and i get a Prompt asking me something about the Default when i go to merge them......

i saw the object there, but when i went to sapien and ran radiosity, it wasn't there

i'm going to make a short youtube video of what i did sometime soon


but basically, i have one .max file that i want to combine with another

so i use the merge option to bring it onto my viewport

there are some options that i had to chose from when i went to merge the files and i went through all of them to see what would happen

_________________________________________________________


So i used auto rename merged material because it's the only one that doesn't mix up the bitmaps





Then i used get material in the map editor to get to this





i dragged that into the map editor and made a new ID for it.





i don't know if this is the correct way to go about merging 2 max files
any help would be appreciated



here is a short video of what i did in 3DS 2009
