Did you folks really find and squash the IFF mapping bug? I received a
disk from you last Thursday that I assumed contained the bug fix. Sorry to
say, I still get the mirrored images when mapping brushes to objects. I'm
following the instructions you gave me back in November but to no avail.
To reiterate: I create a sphere of size 100, add an axis sized 200z 320x.
Place the axis at -100x -100z and 0y. Select brush coloring under
Attributes with the axis selected. Load the brush image to be mapped to
the sphere. Group the axis as parent to the sphere. Cluster the
axis/sphere so the sphere takes on the properties of the axis. Set brush
wrap to wrap x wrap z.
Create another axis called spin, set the story on spin so that it turns 360
degrees on the z axis over the life of the animation. Group the spin axis
to the brush/sphere group with the spin axis as parent. Back out to the
film strip, create 8 frames, set the key cell as source, use story, all 8
frames as target. Under options, set zone to render only the sphere to
save time, use solid modeling instead of ray tracing to do likewise. Make
Scene. When the scene is finished, load movie and view…… the IFF
image mapped to the sphere looks like this. imageegami
