Working on both the tank and boxing map, along with creating our own soda was at first stressful for me, especially since I'm working on a web based software completely different but similar to the one we're supposed to be working with. Ingressing materials in Clara could be slow. We start off by either making our own material, or finding one that we could actually use. We digress slowly into importing those files in Clara. Up on the right corner, we see render. Clicking on it leads to other substitutes that could help us. First one to pop one is materials, pressing that one leads to different types of export materials you would like, such as standard, physical, etc. Since these were my first time importing textures and such, I used standard. Side note, there was a MultiD substitute you could've used to add multiple materials for one object, though this feature never worked well for me, which is why I stuck with standard. Continuing to this, a little green ball will appear on our explorer tab to the left of the screen named standard. This is where our imported files from earlier that included our materials come in handy. Pressing that little green ball leads to these commands on the right part of the screen, I followed through and first named what the material was. For the box, I had different sides such as top, side 1, bottom, etc, so of course i'm naming them in the order I exported them along with how I made the object in which i'm putting the material in. I made the mistake of making my textures transparent, which gave me a problem. I would recommend actually just cutting up your own material, cropping, etc without making any changes as to how it's shaped and so on. Forwarding on to importing the material, look down and there's a ‘select image’ button on there. Bingo! Put the desired image of the material you want, and it is automatically already a material. Go ahead and drag your desired object to the material, and there it is. Clara did glitch lots for me when doing this, stretching skins, and not getting out in the right place for this. I just closed the tab, along with detaching separate faces, from the object I was working with.
