Hi, I have made a small test building (interior) in Deled. The building itself is alright, but when I apply a texture to th walls from the texture manager, it tiles them 4 high, and the length of the wall, I want the texture to be tiled 1 high and the length of the wall. I tried making the texture image itself but it just shrinks to the same size and it looks the same size. I also tried making the walls one fourth the size, but that just compounded the problem. Could some one experienced with deled use please give me some assistance.

Thanks very much,
Sam

DeleD uses the vertex positions to come up with UV coordinates. You were on the right track when you made the walls 1/4 of their size. If you want to tile 1 high, do this:

* make your wall 1 high and set the correct lenght
* apply your texture
* now set Lock UV to true in object properties
* resize your wall's height

I realise this is a bit weird way of doing things but it works. DeleD will be improved with texturemapping manipulation routines in the future so this proces can be done easier. Of course, you can use other programs to do the UV mapping for now.
