          I've said it before, but thanks you! 😍

          I think you forgot to say that if you place a folder called BTW_Textures in your plugin folder and choose use Apply material: Rand_Tex it will use all textures in that folder. Here are a few tests I've made:

          [attachment=3:1u96rdu7]<!-- ia3 -->Bricks01.jpg<!-- ia3 -->[/attachment:1u96rdu7]
          Can you spot the tiling? No, because there is none. This is with 10 small seamless brick textures used.

          [attachment=2:1u96rdu7]<!-- ia2 -->floor03.jpg<!-- ia2 -->[/attachment:1u96rdu7]
          This is just one single seamless texture used.

          [attachment=0:1u96rdu7]<!-- ia0 -->tiles01.jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:1u96rdu7]
          This is also just one texture used.

          Pixero, thank you very much.

            A new update. Added two new patterns.

              Thanks you very much for this useful plugin!! πŸ‘
              It works perfectly on Mac & SU2014. One question, the Row2Row Offset for Brick is 0.5 by default when you use mm units, I changed to 50 in line 69 of the rb file.

              @defaults=["Corner","0","Current","Yes","Yes","50","No","No","0","No","No","30","150","50","12","6","3"] if @@opt=="Brick"

              Another question, what units uses the Texture Size, mm, inches or pixels?

                Thanks for pointing that out. Originally I was using a fraction(0.5) instead of a %. Once it is corrected from within the plugin and Update is clicked, that should take care of it.

                What ever units you are using in the model, either mm or inches. The API says inches but mm seemed to work for me.

                  I use metric units in my models for that, I suppose the Texture Size it will expressed in mm, is it so?
                  The Options Window is a bit little on Mac, I changed the window hight to 530 so I can see all options.

                      Can we get something like this as a pattern?

                      Can you show us some patterns to build for you? let us help.

                        That pattern is just a bit to random I think. the closest I could get is a random length, width and thickness using the wood pattern

                          Still after the holy grail, ay Kris? lol. I am trying to figure out how to do a stone wall surface (with SU hole punch components for windows etc.) and make some sort of detail at the corners that suggests the stone profile...

                          That's not bad sdmitch Should keep looking at it!

                              That looks pretty dame good sdmitch... if I had used a better tiling texture it would look better.

                                1. inconsistent grid origin\rotation (tried on simple cube, see pic.1)
                                  By design, the plugin aligns the pattern length with the longest edge of the face picked. In this case, I would undo and redo the face with 90 rotation selected.

                                After 90 rotating the tool takes origins randomly: sometimes it's the upper corner, sometimes the lower one.

                                But the most important: is there place for code optimization? It takes approx 5 min to put 2k tiles (to do it manually would take may be 0.5 min πŸ˜• ).

                                  As with any plugin, if you can do it faster manually, then don't use the plugin.

                                  If you are using Corner origin, the corner closest to the point on the face that you pick will be used.

                                          Is it now 'stable' enough to be added ?

                                            Perhaps not just yet. There will probably more pattern options added in the near future.

                                            Is there a way for me to add it to the plugin store or do you have to do that?
