Have run into a strange problem.. and I just cant get it right.. I wanna put a bump onto a button made in wings.. Its just a square and the only bump on the modell so I dont Uv map anything just makes a squarish bump map that should fit.. I choose the bump and set bump to 100.. works fine in the lab with a vube and everything but when I go back to the real set nothing happens.. have never run into this problem before.. anybody knows how to get this working?

Not sure what you mean by it works on a cube in the lab but not on the real thing. Could you post a screen shot of the lab settings you're using on your wings model? One thing I can think of, is if the third box in the lab doesn't have any bump texture, like if its a solid grey then you won't get any bump no matter what number you set the bump to. Same if the dot isn't in the right channel. but without a screenshot I've got no idea :(

For the oment Ive ignored the problem and rendering at the moment.. What I meant was that in the lab, everything looks good on the preview on a cube or cylinder and so on.. I cant prewiev on the "real thing" because its quite small.. but when I go back to the real set no bump is working.. infact if I choose to use it as a texture it doesnt work either.. have a clue that it has something to do with the sixe of texture Ive tried to change to alot of diff. sets. but nothing helps...

Are you using the parametric mapping mode? With mesh imports parametric mode is a UV mapping mode. Trying setting it to object or world space and see what happens.

I'd agree with dan...bet that's the problem. parametric never works on anything I bring in from wings...I always go to object cubic.

Jeppz.. thats it.. I knew it when you told me.. was through the same problem with my octo when I textured that one so.. so thanx alot..
