Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to guarantee the ordering of textures when exporting a POD file from 3DS Max? Or is that completely dependent on how Max serves it up to the exporter? ---

Hi, At this time. there is no way to specify the order textures are exported in PVRGeoPOD. Regards, Joe ---

Hello Joe is right but there is an extension , during the export to use “User Options” and provide your specific custom data , see the file called example\_script.ms for a good start sample start then you can store wathever you want coming from the rich 3ds max script api. i use it everyday 🙂 regards david
