  Issue with texture on text extrude

  Posted by Kasper Nyman on April 14, 2011 at 11:51 am

  Hey
  I have this problem that when I put textures on my text, which is extruded, it only put it on front surface, not all surfaces.

  Ps. Its not converted into a Spline.

  What should I do?

  Let me see if I’m following what you’re saying. You have text based off of some sort of spline in an extrude nurb. You apply, for example, a red material. Only the caps of the letters turn red?

  Sorry for my bad english, I can understand it might have sounded pretty strange. Here how it is set up on my stage

  I took a text, typed in the word, add the Extrude Nurbs, and then when I apply a texture it seems to only react on caps and front surface. I tried download some pre-made texture, they look great, but one only worked on the extruded surface, and some only worked on front and the caps. I have not convertet it into a Spline (c), should I do that?

  I also used a SUN for light, cause it worked out best for me. Is that a problem also?

  Hope you can help me, or guide me to a place that I can read/see/learn what to do.
