Load a bitmap into the OSL Bitmap lookup node

[Jakob.Degler]

Hello
I am new to 3ds Max and I have a stupid question:

I replicated the steps from this description:
https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-shading-lighting-and/adding-multiple-decal-materials-using-ar...b

Now I am stuck on how to load a bitmap into the OSL Bitmap lookup node. I tried everything in the node material editor but don't succeed.

How do I load a .jpg or .png into the node? 

Do I have to convert them into an .osl file? How do I do that?

Thanks for Your time and help

Jakob

Which Max version are you using? If you drag and drop an Uber Bitmap in 2021 an Open window will appear to load the bitmap. If you are using 2020, then you need to click on this button

Great, thanks!

It worked perfectly

All the best
