Texture a mesh?
Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Programming/Texture a mesh?
| ||
| can i create a mesh, texture it, copy it using copymesh, then add it to another mesh and retain it's texture on the new mesh i added it to without using brushes? im using a tiled texture, if i use brushes it will increase the surface count when i use a different frame for each brush. |

| Have you tried PaintMesh()? Stevie |

| yep, it has to be used with brushes though so when i create 2 brushes from one animtexture it still gives me 2 surfaces on 1 mesh with the same texture |

| Addmesh will combine meshes which share the same brush properties but if you're assigning separate frames of the animtexture then it will assume 2 different textures, therefore 2 different surfaces. I'm not sure exactly what you're looking to do. Can you explain a bit more? It would seem to me that you need to assign different uv coords to each of the meshes so that the coords correspond to the individual frames on the larger texture. If you then load the animtexture as a single texture this will ensure 1 surface. Stevie |

I just want my mesh to have a single surface as anymore is a waste. |
