I begin GMAX yesterday.
I try to tweak a bit ship MOD parts .msh.

I can't solve a problem that... anyone can help me...

1. I converted IMF-format TGAs skin1o.tga, FloorM1.tga, etc. to TGA-format by IMFViewer.
   There names keep skin1o.tga, FloorM1.tga as same as IMF ones.

2. I converted one .msh (in example Hull1.msh) to .3ds by MshConverter.
   UVmap 0 -1 1 -1 and "limit 10 letters" enabled.
   I named Hull1.3ds.

3. I imported Hull1.3ds to GMAX.

Then meshes and faces displayed on 4 windows top/right/front/perspective view.
But in perspective view, material TGA texture isn't displayed. only gray face.
At Display Color option, check Shaded: "Material color".
When I open Material Editor, no material is there. all gray spheres.

What a problem I have?
or it's a feature?

How to do I see material textured .3ds, and edit UV mapping.

You have to load the material into the Material Editor then apply it to the model.

--- Assuming GMax works in a similar way to Max.

Thanks your advise!
I missed click "Show Map in Viewport" button.

Then

I see basically OK.
But here is multi textured model.
IJNCVGeneric's DeckNOver.msh.
center area is skin1o.tga.
around deck, there is FloorM1.tga.
and wind breaker wall is FloorM3.tga.
