[3ds max] override uv checker texture tip

afb3d · May 2019

To swap the texture simply rename “UV_Checker” to “UV_Checker_old” and copy your new image in making sure the name is “UV_Checker”.

The folder location: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2018\maps\uvwunwrap

Here's some before and after gifs. Much more pleasing on the eye now.

Hope this helps if anyone's interested.

This was the very first thing I did when this feature was introduced.

Whoever is responsible for the decision to choose that particular map, when they could have chosen ANY map in the world, should not be involved in the CG industry.

They shouldn't be allowed to make decisions...
