Texture Space, Theory and Practice.

Some auto-reload textures feature would've been nice indeed...

What I meant was auto-reload inside of wings.

Besides, PS10 left some nasty service from apple which forced to do a full windows install after removing it manually.

[smoth]

that will happen if you opt for the "use external" option.

[rattle]

I don't think wings automatically reloads textures which were changed. I use external images.

This is why i like a dedicated uvmapping and texturing program. As I'm editing the texture, I get to see the result in real-time on my model, as simple as switching from one window to the other.

Which program would this be?

Ultimate Unwrap 3D. I like it quite a bit.

I use UVMapper Pro, which lets you do a Copy-->Merge Layers in Photoshop and see updates on the skin. Easy, and I can update as much or as infrequently as I want. Cheap, too.

You can just make external and save over that file to view the changes in wings.

[rattle]

Well no, that doesn't work unless I reload it in wings, as in Reload from the context menu which can become bothersome when you do it three or four times a minute to get something right.

[SpikedHelmet]

Then I'd suggest a prog like Ultimate Unwrap. :)

[Zpock]

I'm sure it could be done easier in those programs, as in automatically updating, but I don't understand why it's so bad, you just right click on the texture in the outliner and click refresh?

[rattle]

Yeah, well, I happen to mislick on Make Internal, which is right above Reload, a lot.
