ANSWERED: Rotating Textures

skyline5gtr

Hey all, im going through the AKU demo and i wanted to know how to rotate a texture. Lets say for the grip when i apply the bare wood material how to i rotate it so the grain is facing another direction ?

Unfortunately it's not possible yet.

There is a way to achieve the same effect but you lose the "sync" between the different maps meaning every map (gloss, normal etc) will need to be updated manually to match the albedo.

To do it, you need to disable any masks applied to your wood material layer, then flatten the layer so it becomes a real layer (as opposed to a pattern effect). Now the layer can be rotated however you want. Then you just need to reenable the mask. Repeat for all maps.

Hope this help and if anyone has a better method I'd love to hear it!

haha, just wanted to post same thing.
1.6, i'm really curious how to rotate materials such as wood.

Or we have to consider this moment while planning our UV map? It's not always possible when working with outsource.
