Change text in logo ?

[Felix M]

Just doing a trial on Lightwave.
Can someone explain how to change my text in a logo.
I've got a Pre built logo that says " Get them now!"
I need it to say "Get some today !"
I just need an easy way to change the text script if possible.
Can't seem to find it in the trial help me file.

What kind of text is it?

You've basically got three options:

If it's system text, you can simply load that font into Modeler, and then use the Text tool under the create tab to build your text. Once built - extrude it, bevel, surface, and go.

Thenk you've got the option of importing an EPS file. Make sure its saved as EPS 6.0 or lower.

Finally, last resort, use splines to trace over the text image - this is useful for non-font logos - such as custom designs, modified text, design elements, and so on.

I've got a fly in logo pre built.
I just need to change the script.
Just a change of words with out any other change.

Or do I start from scratch and creat the text all over again?

It all depends on how you built it.
If you're changing one letter - then you need to rebuild that letter. There's no "replace font" command or anything. Text is a 3D model like anything else.
