Re: UV mapping? 2005-04-08 - By Mike Moir

Dean,
When you are in the Vertex modeler, I would select only one shutter if all
the shutters come in under the "shutter" object and delete the rest. Then
in the texture room use flat mapping in the Shader room and apply the
texture map to the appropriate side using the box mapping icons. You should
also shade the sides or edges of the shutter using the Flat mapping too. I
would then duplicate this shader in the assembly room and place them
wherever you want them.
Good luck.
Mike
