Hey guys , take a look at these images

[

Can anyone tell me how to make those textures not look repeated so much like that?

The top is the problem and below is the used teture

- Go to Face mode
- Select your polygon
- Select the Gen. UV command and check the Fit texture size to face option
- Press OK

on jeroen's way your bricks getting probbably too big.

isn't it ?

I wouldn't recommend increasing the texture size to remove the visibility of that tiling. You could either do it Jeroens way or look for a tool that can make textures seamless. The gimp for example has a filter to do that.

I still see a thick seam in your's triplle Razz

(vertically), yes most painting programs have "make seamless" tools, but ussually a brick wall doesn't work with that. best way to do is by hand if your handy with a paint program.

or maybe this?: http://www.seamlesstexturegenerator.com/

Can i ask a question

What does making it seamless actually mean?. How does a program like GIMP make it work in a 3d program, how do they know, that once it repeats, it has to continue looking the same?

Jeroen, i know that, it amkes it too big, because it is one texture, stretched out

tripple, thanks alot, let me try it

Mr.Fletcher · Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 9:56 am Post subject:

It manipulates the texture itself. In fact, it has nothing to do with 3D. It just blends some other part of the image along one side so that when you tile that texture, you don't notice that border so obviously. This may work on some textures better than on others though.

//edit
Making a texture seamless can be done manually too, Nocturn does it that way. If this works out for you, the texture will look even better than with one of those seamless making algorithms.

Thanks

Tested it works

How do you do it?. Please tell us

I a working on another texture, that i used the offset filter, and am clone brushing it to make the seams go away

Please tell us your way

There is no special trick to doing that. You just have to draw the texture with repetition in mind. Make sure all the edges line up perfectly, and make sure there is nothing in the image that will make a noticeable repeating pattern.
