Blended Box Mapping Part 3: Triplanar in Blender Method

[@criko3d]

Welcome to the party!, I left max in 2020 after nearly 20 years, never been happier.

It seems that Blender's blended box mapping doesn't work well with normal maps. I remember it working well in 3ds Max with VRay.

[@ArtOfSoulburn]

Interesting. I always use bump maps, never normal maps, so I haven't run into that yet. Thanks for letting me know!

[@Crazybark]

is there anyway to change what texture is portrayed on which face? like having top be steel but forward and side be the numbers?

[@ArtOfSoulburn]

Not that I'm aware of. What you're describing is a Blended Cube Projection: www.neilblevins.com/art_lessons/art_lessons.htm where you apply different maps to all 6 sides of your square. I haven't been able to find a Blender solution for that yet, but will post a video if I do.

@@ArtOfSoulburn dang, thanks though

[@Crazybark]

@@ArtOfSoulburn nevermind, figured it out, having the name of what it was called helped alot. So thanks again

[@ArtOfSoulburn]

@@Crazybark Could you share what you found, would be interested to know the technique.

[@ArtOfSoulburn]

@@Crazybark Nope, didn't show unfortunately

[@mitchellwoodin6686]

I'd be curious to see if you can work this out for procedural textures rather than image textures. They don't have the box setting!

[@notamore4399]

please tell me how to make the texel be the same on different objects, because I have objects of different sizes and the texture for some reason lies on different

[@ArtOfSoulburn]

I'll post when I figure it out, right now it seems a lot of texture related things prefer multiple objects to be joined into a single mesh instead of being separate.

[@notamore4399]

@@ArtOfSoulburn Yes, I agree, I did it by accident, and I received the same texel, but I would like to regulate this somehow, perhaps this is already a question for the developers, or I need to look for buttons, thanks for the answer.

Noice.
