Hi, I read how I can paint a surface with a brush, but everything gets "painted". How can I only paint a certain part of a mesh? I'd like to paint the mesh at the spot of the character on the mesh Thank you!

You could use the VertexColor command. That should do the trick :)

If you mean to paint a 'Brush' on an individual triangle, you would need to assign that triangle to a surface which has been painted with that brush. If you want to paint new detail onto a texture map, you would need to find the UV position on Texture map and write to the TextureBuffer() at the specified point.

Thanks guys. I'm a little bit overwhelmed by this :) I hope I can find another solution

Look in your 3D Samples folder under Birdie. It's called texpaint. Probably be a step in the direction you're looking for. Doggie
