Assuming that all Away3D primitives’ UVMaps are normalized - the values are limited between 0 and 1 - is there a way to do tiling on them without modifying their UVMap, like some 3D modeler software? The TextureMaterial has a “repeat” Boolean property, but no property for setting the number of repetitions. I suppose that it could be done by a Fragment Shader, couldn’t it? Is there a Method that does this job? |

myMesh.geometry.scaleUV(scaleX,scaleY);

But there’s a limitation in using it: this changes the UVMap and affects all the textures based on this map. In many softwares (Maya, 3DMax, Cinema4D, etc…) you can optionally set this tiling properties at the texture level. Then, when a material references many textures (one used in the diffuse map, other to the specular map and other to the refelxion map, for example) you can set the tiling properties individually for each texture. I think it could be done by some shader. My question is if a shader like that already exists, cause I have no expertise on shader programming…. |
