So if for example you wanted to place some writing on the side of a ship, it comes pretty fuzzy looking.
Is there a way around this? |
When you are able to import/export you can do anything you like. You could break the mesh apart and retexture parts of it with a new material/texture (which includes your text/writing).
Another possibility is to create a higher mip level (2048^2) of that single texture and add your writing.
Which approach is best depends on your own needs. You need to take into account how much extra weight you add to the gpu. Both can work. I'm sure there are other alternatives, but I'd ask a 3ds max guru then
