Posted: 05 Aug 2002 01:50 pm Post subject: How do you reverse a Texture?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How can I reverse a texture with GtkRad ? Can I add the minus sign in front like I did with worldcraft, and if so where? cause I just cant remember how and I'm not finding it in the keyboard commands and I dont see it discussed in the manual. Been trying stuff in the surface inspector without luck.
All I want to do really, is just flip a door texture so the freakin door knob is on the other side so I can have two doors together.
AAAARRRGGHHH !

In GtkRad make sure that texture lock is turned On.
Textures -> Texture Lock -> Rotations
Or you should be able to use the short cut to lock/unlock
rotations: Shift+R
You'll certainly need to use this if you have signs with
text on them in your map, otherwise all your signs will
have to face the same way.

Marmil, you misunderstand the question.
LivingCropCircle, you need to select the face (SHIFT + click) and then press 's'.
Put a minus sign in front of the horizontal stretch, click apply and then click done.

Hey there are no stupid questions if you first look through the resources.
I never knew how to do that myself.
*btw* to select a face hold ctrl+shift. To select multipal faces hold alt+ctrl+shift

Thanks for correcting me. I misunderstood and was thinking entire brush, not face. You read LivingCropCircle's question correctly.

Anytime. Also, remember that when manipulating patches (curves), SHIFT + 's' brings up the patch properties dialogue.
