Texture Editor

Texture Editor is an application designed to help you edit the texture coordinates of a 3D model that was created using 3ds MAX.

The app displays a user-friendly interface that allows you to load the project in a few steps and view it. With the file loaded, you can explore the 3D model on one side and the mesh on the other. It can also handle bitmap images, process and export them to .X or .3ds files.

Texture Editor is a plain, straightforward application that sticks to the basics to which it was designed but even so it’s a bit rough around the edges. It offers buttons that you can use to zoom in and out, rotate the image and fit it to the screen but in a lot of cases they just don’t seem to work.

It’s also riddled with errors that won’t let you open certain files and if it does, Texture Editor crashes almost instantly. The application can open only one material pe model and if you try to load two mesh files, it will also crash. There is also a chance that the application will cause the file to lose texture data if you load a mesh into Mesh Maker Pro.

Texture Editor can also work with images that are in bitmap or BMP format which is widely spread and easy to open. Surprisingly, the application has some trouble when loading certain files. They are either not displayed or cause the application to crash after a few clicks in the interface.

To sum things up, Texture Editor is not an impractical application due to its design, but it has been left unattended for a very long time and is behind in terms of file compatibility and processing which can ultimately render it completely unusable.
