Why are some of my textures in Blender purple?
I’ve deleted the texture, re-added it, loaded a different texture, it doesn’t matter. The surface is stuck purple. If I go into GLSL mode, the texture will show up, but when i go back to standard shaded mode, it’s back to purple city. I’m using Blender 2.49b on OSX 10.6.2.
Where do I find the texture path in OBJ?
The *.obj file contains the mesh data. The *.mtl file contains one or more simple phong material(s) with the associated texture paths. And the good news is Obj is a super simple file format in text form. You can open the files in a text editor and edit them to your needs.
How to create image texture in Photoshop?
Press the little button with a dot to the far right of the “Color” field. In the menu that pops up, select “Image Texture”. Now hit open and browse to your texture. You have now created a material with a diffuse shader and an image texture.

Where are materials stored in an OBJ file?
.OBJ (Wavefront) file itself only stores geometry data, it does not keep anything regarding materials or textures. Materials (including references [paths] to textures) are stored in companion .MTL file/format.
And the good news is Obj is a super simple file format in text form. You can open the files in a text editor and edit them to your needs. When the *.mtl file is missig then there is nothing to import for Blender. No mtl file means no material and no texture available.
Can a MeshLab file be an OBJ file?
Meshlab does support files with several texture files, just by using a separate material for each texture. It is not clear if you are generating your obj files with meshlab or other program, so I’m not sure if this is a meshlab related question. Here is a sample of a minimal multitexture .obj file (8 vertex, 4 triangles, 2 textures)
How do you apply a shader in OBJ?
If you want to apply a shader, make sure the object is selected in the scene tab, and the material is selected in the surfaces tab. Then apply the shader. Both have to be selected, or the shader just doesn’t do anything.
Downloaded a free OBJ file (of a house) from this site: turbosquid.com Imported the OBJ into Blender. I can see the house, but there are no colors (I’m assuming the textures aren’t linked or something). I can see materials listed in the material view, and if I change their colors portions of the model update as well.
