| Post subject: | patches warp/stretch textures |
 i'm sure this has been discussed before, but i did a quick search and couldn't find any posts. when i make dome-shaped structures out of bevel patches my textures always get warped, like above. when i try cycling through all the texturing options, they are all warped in different ways. does anyone know how to solve this? a step-by-step answer would be greatly appreciated. thanks, pat |

At world origin (0,0,0) place a 128X128 brush(128X128X8) and place texture/shader on it w/axial in surf prop. Then lay patch out above brush like you would uv a mesh then cap the bezier until it matches brush texture, then bend it however you want too! --edit as for your pic you might want to use 8 seperate 3X3 patches |

I was going to suggest ase the geometry. Then re UV the texture in Blender, or what ever modelling app you use. |

In good old Q3Radiant202 there is a (patch) texture tool plugin:   You can set the vertices exactly by pixel. And/or clone textures from a patch onto another. If you don't have this great plugin, you can do it this way: 1 create a flat version of a single side of your dome 2 set texture as cap (maybe hit CTRL+SHIFT+N until the right projection direction appears) 3 bend your patch 4 make a copy and rotate your patch by 45° 5 in vertices mode, hit CTRL+G to snap vertices back to grid 6 rearrange your vertices

That bezier patch mesh UV map adjustment tool was so useful, and unfortunately didn't return in later variations of Radiant.  Need better tool support for such patch meshes... hmpf. |

I agree. I did not ever work with q3radiant, but this tool seems to be useful |
