Where exsactly are those map files. My apearance file doesnt have NO_TEXTURE writen anywhere.

Anyway im guessing first NO_TEXTURE is for bump, second for image and third for decal.

Try typing location of image file instead of those. Like C:\img.jpg etc.

Dear Davor,

I'm trying to apply a texture in pipe spec.

In folder pipe/master_catalog has piping_appearance.map, or in folder graphiclib\graphic-library\color_maps.


I dont understand the logical, but in file graphiclib\graphic-library\color_maps\plastic.map has the text below

"Beige_Plastic"
0.841 0.801 0.715 0.390 0.830 0.690 0.130 0.953 0.956 0.849
0.000 0.120 0.010 1.000 0 90
NO_TEXTURE speckle.tx1 NO_TEXTURE


and in same folder has the file speckle.tx1

Hmm didnt realise you were talking about piping.

Hi Gabriel...

From what I can see, the piping appearance map goes by the rules of the OLD color.map files dating back to Pro/E 2001. I used to have documentation on precisely what went in these files but after we moved to Wildfire 2, 3, and above, I switched over to the new appearance.dmt format.

I've looked through my old Pro/E 2001 files but haven't located a color.map file with textures saved in them yet. If anyone out there has Pro/E 2001, they can answer your question easily by creating a new color, adding a bump, image, and decal map... and saving out the resulting file. PTC used to have an example file on their website but it has been pulled down.

I'll keep looking...
