texturing problem

(jocco) #1

Hey,

I modeled a mesh and I created a texture for it in my painting program. When I add this image as a texture to my mesh, the texture is not visible when I render it. But I can see it in my preview window.

What did I do ?

  1. I selected the mesh in object mode
  2. gave it the default material
  3. added a new texture: type: image
  4. loaded my file (png-type)
    Now I see the result in the preview
  5. edit-mesh-buttons: enabled text face
  6. material buttons: enabled text face
  7. rendering buttons: env map and osa buttons enabled

result: no texture rendered :< %|

can somebody help me ?

I don’t see anything wrong in the steps you describe (although some not necessary), so maybe you can post the blend file (don’t forget to pack data before -> File/pack data, this will include the texture in the blendfile)

how do I do that ? :expressionless:

“tex face” in the material buttons is only for textures assigned in face select mode by uv mapping

thanks

can it be
that the mistake I made
is the fact that I just
made a png file of my rendered mesh
(did not unwrap it)
and just painted it in gimp
and that the texture-image is to small to notice when rendered
cause
when I use that file on a cube
I can see the textures

(my god, do I make sense ???)

be
the
mistake.
