Texture aligning help Created 16 years ago2008-09-27 16:35:04 UTC by Striker

Hi all . I have a relatively nooby problem ...
I searched for a tutorial I was sure I saw about 6 months ago on some site , but I didn't find the damn tutorial .
So I'm reqesting your help .
Here's the result I want to have without having to rotate the texture manually . I know there's a method on aligning the texture by using some technique ...All that I remember is that you have to select the top texture :And then the interior texture :And there was a technique on how to align the top texture after the interior texture .
Thanks in advance . Hope somebody knows

I don't know if it will work for HL1, but try selecting the interior face, then Alt + left mouse on the face to align.

Nope that isn't working ...

Scroll down a bit.

Hah, thats my mapping tip.

And Spike is right, thats the way its done, you're just doing something wrong, i guess. Read that mini tutorial carefully and it'll work.

Oh I wouldn't thought it was there the tip

Thank you very much .

then Alt + left

while in your mini-tutorial says
Alt + right click.

Umm, because the tutorial is pretty useful , I took a little from my time and compile the tutorial intro on big image :So I can see it if I forget about this tip again .

yes,my fault, lol

I wanted to say left

a cylindrical vent? thats a new one.

wow striker, thats original. and i never read that tutorial. i applied my faces using rotation etc lol

A cylindrical vent? thats a new one.

It is? I see them all the time in the real world.

But yeah, I saw that guide a while back and I've used it ever since. Very useful.

i meant like for half life, you always see those rectangular ones

Ah ok. Well I'm featuring cylindrical vents in some my maps too. (depending on the area.)

What's so special about it ... it's ... cilindrical
