question for Blender/3dsmax users
Permalink  
 


take a look :

testjq.jpg

(A) is the texture I want apply on the mesh (B)

Go back to 3ds max, so I have my Arch and I put the texture on it,
But after several tries with the uv'mapping options, I can't find a way to apply and deform a texture along an arc.

Do you know how make that with blender or Max ?

the result would be something like that (the texture follow the arc of the mesh) :

I never tried to UV map a mesh like this in Blender, but from what I understand... You would want make the side of the arch one UV "island" or group. Then adjust it so it isn't an arch, but a rectangular shape that matched the texture's shape.

When i do anything like that. I would use a rusty metal material on the curved part and use the material you have on the part that can be aligned.

If i remember there is a metal in UT2k4. Abbadon pack that matches the one you are using.
For the rusty metal i mean.
