mapping a rope

[addk2_cg]

Hi,

I am always wondering which mapping widget to use, when I have a rope bended in the space?
thank you

Re: mapping a rope

None actually...all the mapping widgets won't really work on a rope that bends in space. Your best bet is to use Surface projection and mess with the U or V repeats to get the result your looking for. With that it will bend around and follow your surface

I can't found the complete old thread, because the forum search dosn't work like allways, but here should be some textures for default UV usage.
