Hi Kim, << Basically my question was comparing using a face mapped material in leiu of detaching the faces, applying mapping coordinates separately and then applying a mapped material. >> When comparing these 2 alternatives, note the picture of the GSphere on pg. 9-67 that was face mapped. In this particular case, detaching faces/applying mapping coords/reattaching would give you more control of the result over face mapping. However, note the cube and the cylinder that was face mapped and the result is satisfactory. << And how does that compare to mapping during lofting and then applying a mapped material. >> Please review pgs. 6-98..6-101 for additional insights. jonas[adesk]
