texturing problem...

josambs · 20-06-2003, 06:20 PM

Hey there,
I have a problem when im texturing a box like object (see pic)
I always get a stretched texture at the sides, although I apply a box uvw modifier. I just don’t know any way to solve this problem. I got a workaround ( I detach the sides from the object and texture them separately) but this method takes AGES and AGES. Is there any way I can achieve what I want in a faster and easier way?
Thx for your help,

johannes

Increase the hight of you gizmo to be about the same as your width and length. (it's not stretching, it's squashing

)

the gizmo IS sized correctly, corresponding the objects width, height and length.

no incatius is saying you should increase the height of your gizmo cuz your texture is trying to map this huge image onto a small surface, therefore you want want to assume that you're mapping a section of the huge image onto that surface.

just try increaseing its height and you'll see what he means.
