This is a quite intense EV mapping scheme. Let's take a look at the texture for the spine in the material editor. (mouse clicking) And here's the spine, we'll take a look at that bitmap and what that looks like. View the image, there we go, and here it is. That's the spine split up into all of its component parts, a very familiar EV mapping scheme, in this case it's the only way to get a, kind of a true look at what a spine bone texture would be. Now the important part of getting to this process is that when you bring a scene like this that was possibly made in an earlier version of Max, you have to go through the scene converter process.
