How to Unwrap this Simple Building?

mrgesy

I know this is something simple, but I'm having troubles.

I'm trying to unwrap this tapered/slightly-stylized building piece so I can apply a tile-able brick texture. The texture tiles straightly on one side but bends away on the other side. I need the two building faces to be seamless because bricks continue to the other face of a building. Here's a picture of the divergence.


If I make it completely straight, it causes distortions, which don't look good on brick walls....Thanks guys!

Looks like you have UV Layout, why arent you using that?

Open uv editor, polygon mode then select all, then mapping-->flatten mapping (put 55° with 0.005 spacing)...then custom stitch in edges mode...where you want/don't want the seams
:poly124: Am i right?

Are you planning to utilize tiling textures on this at all in whatever game engine you're putting this into?

@pmiller001 I made that unwrap in UVLayout...it doesn't make any difference in making it straight but undistorted

@macoll: I just tried that but it's giving basically the same result. The bricks are straight on one side but they are rotated by around 10 degrees on the other side.

#JadeEyePanda Yes I'm planning on utilizing tiling textures but they would look strange if the UVs don't match
