I downloaded an obj tree model from 3D Model world. How do I get more than one material so I can have seperate colors for leaves and bark. I opened the model in UV Mapper but when I use the map it makes, the colors don't stay where they are suppose to be(The branch color ends up on part of the leaves). Thanks

I'm also wondering about this for some jewelry I made in 3D Max. When I import the jewelry model all I have is one material.

Well hopefully the obj is not one solid mesh with no sub objects. If it is your pretty much in a bind. If they made it really user friendly the leaves will be one sub object and the tree another. If this is the case, in UVmapper go to the edit menu >select >by group. If there are multiple groups you are in luck. Once you arrange the template like you want it save the model and template. If you don't save the model your template want work. I'd also sugest assigning each sub object to a material group. Even if you use the same texture map you can adjust the high light color and trans pareniecs seperatly in poser. Of course you can assign material groups in Poser with the grouping tool. I do this a lot because its easier to comprhend what your looking at in 3d. Hope this helps.
