Hello thanks for replying, I have applied ['painted'] onto individual faces within 'containers' - groups. I have now manage to adjusted [positioned/rotated/scaled/etc] using the right-click context-menu 'Texture' toolset. But I have not managed to get the right-click context-menu 'Texture' toolset to show up on curves, could you tell me why?

Hello Folks
I am texturing my model and having trouble texturing individual parts
I have edited A in photo package to the exact size of the model part, but the texture keeps repeating. I have changed length & width in materials but it effects B. I have made each textures unique.

Not sure what else to try, any help as to what I am doing wrong greatly appreciated

Simon

Thanks Dave will give it a try over the weekend

And thanks for the tutorial which I have just finished

Thanks Dave it worked

Thank you for the quick replies, have tried again & got better results but not 100% yet as you can see in the pics below

This was after taking Dave R advice & moving the the high side of the profile so it is at the centre of the circle. Thanks for the alternative suggestion Dave, i shall give it a go.

Hello thanks for the quick reply , i will give it a go

Hello folks
I am trying to produce the same reflection in my floor as the one above. As a novice I have just been experimenting trying to produce the same effect but i am not having much luck Any pointers would be greatly appreciated

It is the light reflection coming in from the doors that I would like to reproduce in my model

Thanks in advance

Simon

Thanks chaps, that made the world of difference

Hello Folks

I have spent quite a bit of time, watching tutorials, searching forums, reading manual trying to work out were to place my reflection map.
From what i can work out so far.

1. In material list i create new reflection layer
2. Click into BRDFReflection reflection m
3. In the texture editor drop down list choose TexFresnel
4. Then click into TexFresnel Parallel m
5. In the texture editor drop down list choose TexBitmap
   6.In BitmapBuffer file browse to my reflective .png

Could someone please confirm if this is the correct place for placing the reflection map?

The reflection map is for the floor.

The render comes out to this

Apologies in advance if this reads a load of confused rubbish.

Yes, I had this issue in the past. My problem was that the face (surface) was reversed. Use the monochrome style to see if your floor have this problem.
Cheers!

Hi thanks for the suggestion already tried this.

[questionable]i would say that the moment when a texture is loaded into the vray material editor, it doesn't make sense to edit the texture size in SU Material editor.[/questionable]

the solution, imho, is to change the u/v repeat values in the TexBitmap slot. (so to make the texture bigger, the repeat number needs to be lower.)

Hello thanks for the quick response, this solved my problem

Hello folks
I am pretty new to v-ray. so find my self on a steep learning curve at the moment I am loading a flooring vismat into my material editor & then applying to my material selection which is a rectangular surface. The floor proportions look great until i render then they become too small. Could someone tell me what I need to do to stop this happening?

Thanks in advance
