This is just a simple test map i made too well uhh test things...
Anyways ive got this model of a desk i made in blender UVmapped made a simple texture, it looks okay in blender, then i export as .ase and import into UDK
make a simple material just using Diffuse and this is what it looks like, Can anyone tell me what they think? maybe i mapped it wrong? I have no Clue. i am new at this. Any tips? thanx!

U might need a specular map

Your normals are inverted, you can see trough your desk. I'm not familiarized with blender but you should look for reverse normals.

A quick fix would be to set your desk material to two-sided. It's not the best solution.

U might need a specular map

How is this relevant?

Thanks! i made it 2 sided and that worked. I will look around in Blender and see if i can find anything about reverse normals, Why exactly is a two sided material not a good solution though? Just seems like it would be a good thing to know.

thanks again!

It's better if you reverse normals on your mesh for the best lighting results. Two-sided is used for hair/fur, vegetation, windows, FX's, etc.
