I recently downloaded a model for a school project, complete with textures. The problem is, when I open it in max. It does not ask me to point out where to find the textures and I have no idea if theres a way to attach the texture map to the model, so it shows the right textures on the right places. My max version is 2014.

Hi.
Your image needs to be located where Max can find it. By default, Max will look for them in the following folders:
yourproject\sceneassets\images\
yourproject\scene\
For external files located outside of your project directory, go to Menu, Customize, Configure User Paths, External Files, and add the directory where your texture map file is located.
Above is assuming your model has Material/Map assigned. Otherwise, you will need to apply a Material to your model then assign Bitmap type Maps to your Diffuse/Bump, etc.
Please review these items to get familiar with how to cofigure User Paths and assign Maps.
