I tried the tutorial Gearsawe put up (http://www.joe-brown.net/SecondLife/SculptTut/SculptTut.html) and all seemed to go well until I imported it into SL. I got the same 'The following elements do not specify a Target Map slot' with my sculpt listed as others have posted getting (with no solution in those threads), but the render went through. And in SL most of it is perfect, but it seems like the front center vertices went haywire and drug through the prim. This is my first attempt, so I'm sure I did something wrong, but if anyone can give me some pointers I would really appreciate it!

Attached:
1- prim from the front with the center vertices creasing and pulling off to the right
2- prim from the side showing the pull and shape
3- screenshot of the render window and settings, with the framework in the back

if you look at the image in Photo shop or something. Do you see a black line along one of the edges of the sculpt map? if so that is a good indication the that UV are not properly aligned. This can be hard to see in SL when you enlarge the image.

Ah, yeah, there looks like a darker line along the left side of the targa and a lighter one along the bottom. Is there any way to fix that or should I just retry totally?
