    Things you need:
    - A computer
    - 3DS Max 8
    - BrawlBox
    - Da Script

    Start:

    1.- Create .dae and export your MDL0 File
    2.- Import .dae
    3.- Load script and fix Ais import
    4.- Hide unselected
    5.- Click on the polygon you want to edit the UV
    6.- Go to modifiers, then UV, and finally Unwrap UVW
    7.- Click on edit
    8.- A window will appear, click on maps, then choose the texture
    9.- MOVE THE UV POINTS TO YOUR LIKINGS! you can look at the scene to see how the textures map
    extra step.- Remember to save your UV edits  Wink
    10.- Right-Click, then rotate
    11.- Select all and then rotate them 180°
    12.- Look at the number next to the texture map
    13.- In brawlbox, open your model, then go to UV Points and then export the one which has the number you found before
    14.- On the script, change the export options to Texture Cordinates
    15.- Export? select the UV set you extracted before
    16.- Select the MDL0 File you extracted before
    17.- VOILA! the uv should display correctly on brawlbox, if not, adjust them until they do.

    which version of 3DS Max are you using? at which moment does it crash?

    Will this work for max 10 since we can import the daes into that as well?

    it should, as long as you can import and fix the model on 3DS Max you´ll be fine

    im using Max 2009, OpenCOLLADA 3.0, and it crashes whenever I try to import the DAE into the brres. Im using the 65v of Brawl Box, and it'll import PMDs without crashing, but it screws the texture up royally

    I can't get this to work. I edited the UVs then rotated them 180°. Exported verts (texture cordinates selected), selected the UV set i wanted to replace, then the MDL0 but when I preview it it looks the same. Any idea of what I may be doing wrong?
