Align 3D texture on door leaf?

naomihansen — Mon, 26 Sep 2022 20:56:19 GMT

Hi,

I'm not finding any way to control the 3D texture alignment on a door object. I'd like to get my texture to align with the wall texture around it (the idea here is to have the door disappear in the wall by aligning the siding and minimizing the trim). Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Naomi

I had run with a similar problem

Check The GDL Guide COOR (and it's versions)

PS: Coor must be put after the the script snippet that defines a body

Yes I would say that COOR is what you are looking for.
Because it is a door and they are scripted in the X-Y plane. you will wnat to adjust the X & Y values i should think.

Here is a script I use for adjusting tiles on the top of my bath hob.

material hob_mat
prism_ 5, hob_height,
	0,0,15,
	0,b,15,
	a,b,15,
	a,0,15,
	0,0,-1!,

VERT 0+tile_fill_origin_x,0+tile_fill_origin_y,0 !Origin
VERT 1+tile_fill_origin_x,0+tile_fill_origin_y,0 !X direction
VERT 0+tile_fill_origin_x,1+tile_fill_origin_y,0 !Y direction
VERT 0+tile_fill_origin_x,0+tile_fill_origin_y,1 !Z direction
COOR 2+256,1,2,3,4
body -1

I also have an editable hotspot set up for the tile fill origin that I can drag around in 3D.

Thanks for your input!
I'm not savvy enough with GDL to make it worth my time to figure out this COOR thing. If this door were more important to the project, I would, but in this situation, it's just not worth the time I would need to put into it. I'll just wait for the wish-list item to become a reality.
However, I wanted to thank you for responding, and will now figure out a way to get notified when people answer my questions (since it's taken an embarrassingly long time for me to thank you).

coor{3} 2,
	4 + 8 + 16,! + 32 + 64 + 128,
	WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[3], WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[4], WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[5],
	WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[6], WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[7], WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[8],
	WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[9], WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[10], WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[11],
	WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[12], WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[13], WALL_TEXTURE_WRAP[14]
body 1

Any idea how to detect when a custom texture origin has been set? Toggling flag 32 changes texture alignment between local and global.

IF WALL_SKINS_PARAMS[1][12] then				!skin 1, fill orientation
		FLAG = 	4 + 8 + 16
	else
		FLAG = 	4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + 64 + 128
endIF

Thought this might work, but it does not appear to do anything...
