    anyone knows how to apply a grill texture so that it maintains the shape of the texture instead of stretching them and having that small white space?

    • UVW Mapping? Use the BP UV Edit mode in Cinema to create outlines of the object, then recreate the texture according to the outlines. Like painting-by-numbers.face_melter
    • Or play around with the material's projection in the Tag Attributes - Cubic, Spherical, etc.

    • thanks face_melter, I've watched so many video tuts, but it always seems I do not have the same C4D version or something always is missing :/GeorgesIV
    • btw: that chamfer plugin, it was more than helpfulGeorgesIV
    • Yup, the different versions of Cinema is a ballache to navigate. Simplest appraoch would be using the tags - that's one of C4D's more powerful core systems.face_melter
    • Also, you're welcome :) There are a few free and useful plugins which fill in the gaps of Cinema's toolset - AutoID is a godsend in my line of work.face_melter
