There might be more tutorials as time passes on.

Things you need/have installed:
-DSdevTOOL.tar.gz (PM me or look in the thread "Some interesting tools I found...")
-3dsmax6 (~~PM me~~ or this. EDIT: Don't PM me because I don't think I have it anymore and I hardly ever come online)
-You need to install the 3dsmax6 plugin in DSdevTOOL.tar.gz
1. Create an object. Like a cube. Or import an object.
2. Select the object (left-click)

3. Go to the materials editor (the button on the far upper right that has 4 spheres one is yellow)

4. The button that says "Standard," click that and select "Nitro Standard."

5. Go down and find the "Maps" tab. Select it.
6. Check the checkbox "Diffuse Color".
7. Click the button on the right of the checkbox. Right now it should say "None"

8. On the new window, select "Bitmap". Find a texture that you would like to apply to this object. 256x256 maximum works well for me.

9. When you select your texture, the window that originally showed "Maps" will now show the material properties. You don't need to configure it.
10. On the drop down box above, select the top item on the list.

11. The box that has the sphere that looks like the texture you selected is the material you need to apply. Click and drag the sphere onto the object you want to apply the material. The object may change color (it did in my case).
12. On the NINTENDO NITRO-System drop down menu, select Export with Settings. On the top two text boxes, choose a name and select a place to save the .imd file.

13. Scroll down and select "Export" If you see any box showing up stating some error, you have done something wrong.
14. Now, use G3DCVTR included in DSdevTOOL.tar.gz to convert the .imd to .nsbmd
15. Open a command prompt window
16. Type in: "(Path to G3Dcvtr.exe)" "(Path to .imd)". You can also write relative paths and not specify the path for the file that is in the same directory you're in. EDIT: Don't add arguments. I don't know what they can do.
17. An .nsbmd file should output in the same directory as the .imd. If not, check g3dcvtr's directory.
Done! Now all you need to do to get it into nsmb is to replace a file in the rom using NSMBe's replace file function. For example, you can replace all the files "w1.nsbmd, w2.nsbmd, w3.nsbmd, etc" because they have no animation, and will not cause the game to crash.

The video version is here.

~~3ds max 6 tile texturing. This may work on NSBMD's.~~

I've discovered exporting objects from sketchup will not cause the texture to stretch. Apparently, there's a setting somewhere in 3ds max 6 to determine how big each texture size is, and how it's patterend. It's not in the material editor.

Anyways, I was able to get a simple Minecraft overworld to prove that the textures can be repeated, and can have multiple textures: here.
Don't believe the picture? You don't have to when I've provided the source files.

Animated NSBMD Objects:
I finally got them to work! Here are the files.
Replace w1_tree.nsbmd with the nsbmd and w1_tree.nsbca with the nsbca to get it to work.

I did all like in your tutorial Could be because the texture you chose isn't valid. Happened to me one time. I had to reduce the image size to 256x256 and then use posturize to change the bit depth to 16. Then it works. Use my texture on "Some interesting tools I found..." for an example.

Sent you a PM.

Honestly, I would not write this in a public thread.

Though I dont know, what the PM is actually about.

EDIT: I got an error when installing 3dsmax 6.

I think I will never be able to make this.

The error shows up at the VERY end. Then the installatio rolls back.

Right now, we're not sure what's causing the problem. Create a new thread about this if you have to. Anyways... </offtopic>

First you have to download this.
Place it in your user folder.(C:\Users\"yourname")
Then extract there the archiv. Now go to NSMB editor and extract the w1.nsbmd to C:\Users\"yourname".
Now open cmd (windows key + R, then type in "cmd" and Press enter) and type now in: "nsbmd w1.nsbmd"
Now a new window opens where you have to choose the renderer. Its also in the rar named Screencap.glr. Choose that. Then a new window opens where you can look at the model. Now press "Scroll Lock" on your keyboard and move the camera a bit. After that you can close it. Now you'll have a "screencap.obj" file. Thats the obj file of w1.nsbmd
BUT IT HAS NO TEXTURES!
