It would be great if someone could make a video tutorial.

I just dragged the texture onto the object....and whallaa

Can any of you guys explain how to can save a picture of my gmax creation...so I can show it here....Do I export the file somehow? How do I make the jpeg? Thanks.

MaxisBrian, What are some of the differences between Gmax and 3DS Max? I have a 3DS Max quick start guide, and so far the menus look the same as those in gmax. However, I haven't studied the book closely..... Will I find a 3DS Max book useful in understanding gmax?

I still can't get sims to use highways. I put all Res. in one area, and all Ind. in another and made the connection them with a ground level highway and the sims won't use it. WHAT GIVES. The sims would not travel even when I added a Avenue between the two areas. Finally I added a road and the sims used that to get to the Ind. jobs. This makes NO sense. Can someone shed light onto my problem. I have removed ALL plugins from my plugin folder. I have never experienced this problem before. In fact, when I first started playing everything worked fine until I added a ground level highway. I have used the query and it reports "0" cars on the highway and NOW on the Ave. I also have used the traffic volume indicator and it show NO activity. What is going on? Thanks for any help!!

I should have been more clear... I have on ramps and I am using the correct tool In, fact if I bring up the traffic volume graph, I can see orange and yellow on the highway-indicating that there are cars using the highway But, when i use the query tool it says there are "0" vehicles using the highway.

Have you noticed that its impossible to use the query tool on the highway! I cant get a reading for the amount of vehicles using the highway. In fact almost know one uses them-instead they use the avenues. When I use the query tool to see how the residential sims get to work NO PATH IS SHOWN on the highway. Whats going on!
