The Miss ing Map Coordinates dialog is displayed
when you attempt to render one or more objects
with materials whose maps use a
map channel
(page 3–1060)
other than channel 1. (C hannel
1 is an exception because channel 1 mapping
coordinates are automatically turned on when
you assign a mapped material to an object.) Only
maps with Show Map In Viewport toggled on are
listed as missing.
To use other map channels, you must assig n a
UVW Map modifier (page 1–905) to the object. In
UVW Map, set Map Channel to match the va lue
used in the material.
If the material has multiple maps that use multiple
channels, you must assign a separate U VW Map
modifier for each channel besides channel 1.
If the object is a
NURBS sur face sub-object
(page 1–1179)
, you don’t need to use UVW
Map. Instead, set the map channel on the su rface
sub-object’s
Material Properties rollout (page
1–1150)
.

, which lets you browse for the missing files.
