There is a barstool I want to change the seat color for but it is one image.Therefore adding texture to it makes it all the same color.
I only want to add texture to the seat and keep the base as it is.

So i looked at the cached web image of the stool and downloaded it. But when I open it in photoshop etc all I see is a flat image with the barstool in pieces.

I tried to add this image to a trigger box to see if it would somehow reshape to a bar stool but nope is shows as a flat image.

My question is this.

How do you shape a flat image with those stool pieces into a 3d barstool? and more importantly how does it know which part goes where on the stool.

Im stumped! is there a 3d mesh im not seeing?

Any help would be appreciated..

Yes it is in there and I solved the issue. Ive now learned about maps and covers. and have done what I needed to do.

A big thank you to member LUNA who showed me how easy it was to do as long as you have the template.
