Basic Texture Question

Jean_Luc_Picard

<div class="IPBDescription">BOY do I feel dumb</div> Ok, I have NEVER figured out how to apply a texture to only one side of a brush... how is this possible?

If you are using hammer simply press Shift+A. This opens a new window, here you can choose which texture to apply and how the texture will be scaled.

And in the 3d window you can select any face from a brush to change the texture on that face. (ctrl+click to select more faces)

<span style='color:gray'>shift+a is the 6th tool from the top in the left menu btw</span>

But... when I click on a face it selects the ENTIRE brush... 0o"


ALso, how do I un-group things that are grouped when I've saved and closed the map, then re-opened it, with them grouped? It doesn't seem to let me do that...

The_Cheat

You have to use a certain tool in order to select individual faces. Once you activate this tool, its window with all the face properties must remain open or it will deactivate automatically.

I attached an image to show what the button looks like in VHE.

NetBent

Once you have that tool open you may now click on seperate faces and adjust the textures there.

Once grouped you just do the same process as grouping except you choose ungroup. Is it possible that you grouped it more then once? If you did then it acts like a stack, where the groups build on top of eachother. Try selecting the objects and using the ungroup command 4-5 times and see if it works.
