not so much of a problem for the asimov, simply make the rept texture its own map (simply cant afford to do this on b5) and cylinderical uv map it with a rept of 6 add smoothing and voila !

I wouldn't risk using cylindrical mapping.

i still don't see where is the problem with UV maps in this ****ing Ball with a Rod comming out?
THe ball ..man that is easy UV map..ian remeber the GQuian Engines ..now taht it hard ..
As for the BALL..i told you before why i did it like that..

G`Quan engines are easy by comparison. They don't have to be high res. "The ball" does . UV mapping it is easy. UV mapping it efficiently is not. If I use seperate files for the repeating textures the problem is goes away but of course that's less efficient. Making a texture repeat 6 times over 16 polygons when that texture is part of a multi map is however... not fun. I will either figure it out or give up and do it the obvious way Cpt White suggests. Either way it will be done.

you either change the number of repts (sounlike the original) , the number of polys (much work i presume, + adding more poly probably), or you do it the way I suggest, I dont think its too much of a problem if we only do this when we need too

I plumped for the repeating texture. LOD0 is uv mapped and I'll be handing it over to KMN tonight. The others will follow.
