Is there any way to apply a material to only a single face of an object ?
or does it have to be the entire object ?


convert the object into an editable mesh. then, select it.
from the right menu column, select the "modify" field, and in that field you can switch your selecting method between Vertex, edge, face, polygon and element (red icons)

select the "face" icon, and you will be able to select faces by clicking on them.

select all faces you want, and simply apply the material to them.

the material will now be applied only to the selected faces.

Note: you can also apply modifiers to the selected faces.


THANKYOU!!!!!

I have been trying to figure that out for quite a while, i even gave up for a few months, so thankyou sooooooo much, i'll try and get my completed model textured then get it ingame and post it for you guys to see my first attempt at ship creation Smile

THANKYOU!!!!!

Hey everyone, I know it has been a while, but i'm finally done with my first model, you can download it from the following link, I will be placing any future models in this folder aswell and i will be creating a thread dedicated to my ships as soon as I have the time...

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS SHIP IS IN .XSP FORMAT AND YOU WILL NEED CYCROWS SCRIPT INSTALLER TO ACTIVATE THIS SHIP!

Ship Information:
Name: Talon Fire v2.1
Ship Class: M5
Speed: 100 - 350m/s (after tuning)
Guns: 3x Gun Mounts (20 second energy recovery to 100%)
Sheilds: 1x 5MJ Shield
Hull: 5000 Units
Cargo Hold: 10 - 200 Units (after upgrade)
Cargo Type: M Class Freight

Download Folder for ALL ships created by me:
http://www.mediafire.com/?q59gn857orw45

Please provide feedback ASAP everyone, but bare in mind this is only my first model and it has taken forever to complete as i have run into loads of problems with the export process however after re-creating the ship several times i have finally developed a working ship, therefore i am eager to hear feedback!

p.s. I haven't figured out the engines effects properly yet so if anyone can give me a hint... Very Happy
