-IC-Wedge 0 Posted March 9, 2009 Is it possible to have a plane with the same texture on both sides?? If i explain...... I am making a metal gang/walk way. I have created the texture in Photoshop with correct alpha channels etc. In 02 the texture works perfectly...ie i can see through the holes in the metal floor. However..... I cannot seem to find out how to repeat the texture on the bottom of the plane keeping the transparency. I tried cloning the original plane and flipping it but then you cannot see through the transparent sections again because the bottom of the plane has no transparency. I hope this makes sense to someone. Sorry if this has been asked before i used every term in the search function to no avail :-) Thanks in advance Wedge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-IC-Wedge 0 Posted March 10, 2009 not quite sure what you mean..... Is it not possible to do it with a single plane??? also how do you invert?? Many thanks Wedge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProfTournesol 956 Posted March 11, 2009 If i understood well, you should : (1) Select the plane already textured (2) Copy and paste. Keep the copy highlighted (selected) ! (3) Go to "face", and select "reverse" (or hit "W"). (4) Go to "structure" and select "optimize". You'll have a two sided plane with transparent texture on each face, and thanks to the "optimize" function, only 4 vertices. I've just checked this and it works well, but maybe it isn't what you want... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
