Title: Trim texture rotation on vertical edges
Post by: Allan Chesney on January 14, 2008, 11:12:11 AM
Would it be possible to adjust the window and door trim so that the texture can be rotated on the vertical sections? As the image shows it currently has a nice mitred corner but really is useless as the texture does not rotate with the frame. This means are limited to just a flat colour (which doesn't really need the mitre anyway).

I agree it is sorely needed....

may be best done automatically....but even a fall back workaround to do it manually would be OK and would allow for more control.

Um, this is same reason I 'rolled my own' doorways for FP.

TurboCAD let me sub-divide the 3DS shape to take correctly aligned 'grained' textures.

Alternative is full UVunwrap-style texture mapping, but that might need OBJ and mtl support...
