I exported 3d max 2010 file of palm trees into collada and then put them in scene in torque 3d but the textures dont show up. An any one tell me what I am doing wrong or why they are not showing up. Your help would be much appreciated.

seems this is been asked by several people. Sometimes you need to open the material editor with the item just converted still selected. Only then does T3D figure where the textures are, and even then you in some situations need to hand pick the paths...

I use XSI and had problems with the textures showing up also. Here is a link to the thread where I found the solution.

All I had to do was make sure my Crosswalk "collada exporter" was at the lastest version. Its free to download in update from Autodesk. I don't know if the collada exporter is the same in MAX as in XSI but its worth looking into.
