      @pixelcruncher To my experience, cube mapping aka box mapping, may solve the majority of architectural texturing. What may make it easier and more intuitive, and may speed up the texture mapping, could be a "virtual" box that sets the origin of the texture and its dimensions are the same as the texture tile. Rotating, scaling, and moving it may change the material's origin, rotation and scale.
      This virtual cube (maybe just a grayish wireframe box) could work similarly with procedural textures as well. This way the Tri-Planar would be an internal job.

        But that is exactly what has been available in Rayscaper for several versions now—triplanar mapping. Or am I mistaken, and you’re referring to something else?

          Yes it is there yet could be more intuitive (IMO) maybe like what happens in 3Ds Max mapping modifier (UVW map Modifier)

            It was nice having Animator with Rayscaper, but the plugin behaves so strangely that I’m getting fed up. I’ve wasted so much time and haven’t managed to achieve anything. Nothing but unpleasant surprises—it’s completely illogical.
            Perhaps if I get some help on the thread dedicated to it...
            And yet, I had intended to use it quite seriously.

              Can you share a file that reproduces the error? That would be helpful for Fredo

              When dealing with many objects and nested objects in a scene it is easy to 'wrong-pick'

              I watched your video but it's not clear to me what it was you were highlighting.

                thanks Rich for helping desperate cad user !
                I have already attached the project that was previously causing issues in the thread about Animator. In this version, two of my small animations have become inactive: specifically, the "clapet monte" translation and the "aiguilles" clip.
                The "clapet monte" translation is active in edit mode, but the "aiguilles" clip is out of order.
                there are two films.

                    Is the intent to exclude ALL movement types?

                      Actually probably wrong thread to discuss this since its Rayscaper Release

                        That’s a joke!
                        It’s like that classic scenario where someone calls a repair technician for their washing machine, only for it to turn out they hadn’t even plugged it in.
                        I absolutely refuse to look ridiculous! Why was this option disabled? There must be something that turns it off automatically—I just don’t get it!
                        Many thanks!
