    Hello,

    I am trying to use frontal mapping with a stick texture tag on a flat model of earth(like a map). The tag makes the texture stick perfectly during any deformations it goes through. However, as soon as I move my camera the texture slides off the model. How can I make this texture stick while the camera is moving as well? When I try to use UVW mapping it maps the texture to the sides of the model, instead of to the faces where I need it.

    I don’t think Stick texture with Frontal would work, try Flat mapping

    Set the tag to frontal, then right-click and select “generate UVW coordinates”.
