Repeated Texture

On a primitive mesh, how can I get a texture to repeat itself all the way along when the Mesh is scaled?


i.e. A cube created with CreateCube and a square texture. I want the texture to retain its dimensions and just be tiled when the cube is stretched along one axis.

Is this possible with single-surface meshes?

Yes, but you can't use a portion of a texture and repeat that. Just multiply the UV values by the scale of the object.

Or use ScaleTexture to scale the texture down in one direction. Although this will make the texture look weird on the ends of the cube as you stretch it.

Ahh got it. I just added a ScaleTexture command. Hmm too much or too little caffeine? :)

You can never have too much caffeine ^^

Ohh it dont look right actually...

Its actually a cone (so I know its gonna look strange when it tapers, but that will be far from the camera.) I just wanna get some detail to my laser beams.

I create the cone, rotatemesh it, then stretch it into the distance.

The faces that are stretched look like the texture is also stretched along.



UV values means nothing to me haha and how would I multiply them???
