 |
|
i'm trying to find a workaround to repaint multiple tiles.
the idear is to fit my four existing 4k tiles in one 8k tile and repaint them.
but it does not work since i'd have to downscale my uvs exactly to fit in just one tile matching the new 8k map and then repaint.
is there a way to do this in uvlayout?
or is there another solution? |

You should be able to use the "Move/Scale/Rotate" tools to do that. Set the Scale U and V values to 0.5, make sure "Local" is unticked, and then click the Scale button. Don't worry if all the shells turn red, just ignore that because it wont affect the repainting.
One question ... are you wanting to repaint a bunch of tiled maps? It may not be too much work to add support for that (i.e. repaint tiled maps without having to join textures and scale UVs) but if its just this one time, your work-around should do the trick.

scaling works... nice, thanks alot 
but i just noticed that i cannot repaint 8k maps highest is 4k.
yes, i fited original 4 tiles into just 3 and i want to repaint the displacement maps to do texture painting.
but i read in the manual "Currently the Repaint tool only works for single tiles; that is, all UVs in the original and current mesh have to be contained within the 0 to 1 UV space."
so i was looking for a workaround 
as for the feature. yes i guess it's onetime but as multitile texturing is getting more popular it might be a good idea to include this for future releases. |
