A quick wish that just came to me… how about a cubic mapper? Sure we have planar, cylidrical and spherical (and lofted and face)… but there are many times when I could really have done with the ability to planar map to all sides of an object – like a building say – in one go, without having to divide the object into north, south east west, up and down faces. Sure, one has IPAS materials and face mapping, but a cubic/block map would be just one more way for 3DS to be even better… Thoughts?
