how to stick texture on objects even after cloner is made editable
I made a grid array of cubes using cloner then added a random effector. I want a texture to stick with the cubes so I used Tags>Generate UVW coordinates. But in order to this I have to make the cloner editable. However, doing this would make my random effector’s animation useless. How do I stick the texture without the random animation removed? Im following greyscale gorilla tutorial
but the difference is I don’t use the dynamicfloor tags
thanks

Hey Manny,
Exact same issue here… Did you ever find a solution to this?
-
probably you just need to use Fix Texture in the Cloner/Object tab
-
Guess I should have been clearer- My issue is how to preserve an effector’s animation after making a cloner object editable. I’m still pretty new to C4D- hope the answer is not too obvious…
-
if the Fix Texture switch in the Cloner works you won’t have to make the cloner editable at all and the animation is preserved. Does it work that way? Otherwise you’d have to export the cloner to alembic and bring it back it (unless someone knows something better)

Awesome! The fix textures switch worked. Took me a minute to get it. Thanks Brian.

hello! same problem here…
how exactly did you make the fix texture switch work?
cause it doesn’t make any difference here!many thanks,

From the Help – This method works with every projection type, except for UVW, camera and frontal mapping. So your material meeds to be something other than UVW (probably).
