| I would like you to please explain to me is UVW, the textured 3D model. I think that U = X, V = Y, W = Z, but this applied to textures, am I right? |

| U = the vertex's X position on the texture, measured from 0.0 to 1.0 V = the vertex's Y position on the texture, measured from 0.0 to 1.0 W doesn't do anything. If you try to set it anyway, it will just reset itself. (It was intended for future expansion, but the relevant feature was never implemented.) |

| ok Thanks. |

| Oooops wait sorry. W doesn't do anything - in Blitz3D. In other engines it indeed corresponds to a texture Z coordinate, as long as the engine supports 3D textures (that's pretty advanced stuff though). Sorry, for some reason I thought this was a B3D-specific question and answered accordingly. Obviously W does work in other engines. |
