Texture turned out different from Texture applied to cabinet.

Hi,

Here are the images of wood5 pasted onto cabinet model.

Not sure what I did wrong. Thank you

Hard to say without access to the original file or model...

Hi hansmex.

Thank you for your reply. Also many thanks to whoever help me to upload the 2 images. Though I had followed the instructions you shared and copy link from Mediafire website, I couldn't see my images when I did the preview.

Now back to your comment concerning the actual texture and my model. May I know what sort of info you need for the texture? It's not created by me though as I'm a newbie. But I will provide you the information required so I can resolve this issue. Thank you very much for your patience and guidance.

Regards

Hi hansmex.

The wood texture is from Medialoot.
The link is:https://medialoot.com/item/free-seamless-wood-textures/

I kept to the pixels sizes as prepared by Medialoot when I applied it to the cabinet. Not sure if this affects. Thank you

When I apply #5 to a cabinet from the standard models, the texture renders OK.
That means the problem is not the texture, nor SH3D.

Can you provide a link to the model on which you apply the texture?

Your file - v2

I inserted the original models, applied texture #5 in original image format (as a 75x75 cm texture).
Texture applied to individual parts, not to entire model.
Rendered with Sunflow renderer, quality level 4, one additional light inserted.

Result:

Hi Hansmex

Wow! It looks wonderful now as it is much more realistic.

I will need some time to be able to follow how to make those changes and appreciate what you have done. Thank you.

Have a nice week ahead!

Hi Hansmex,

To apply texture to cabinet, I have only used the built-in feature of 'texture' and 'color'. And it was not successful, as I had not reduced the size of the wood5 texture to 75 cm x 75cm to match the physical width of the cabinet of 800 mm. This you pointed out in your earlier reply.

But I noted you have used "Furniture Materials"-'Model materials' instead to do the texture/color changed for the cabinet.

In the 'Model materials' there are 4 colors viz. flltgrey, grey,ltgrey and white. And Shininess set to 'matt'

My guess is you took the 'cabinet model' and do something to it which I'm not sure how it is done. I search but couldn't find relevant information required for me to follow.

Can you kindly explain how to do this as I have a really steep learning curve to climb?

or if there is a detailed step by step tutorial with images on how to do this, can lead me there, please ?

May I know if "SunFlow rendering engine" is downloadable from SH3D site? I don't think I have this feature in my model. Is it absolutely necessary to get to the "right color & texture"?
I try to keep things simple for now.

Thank you. Have a nice day!

I used Modify furniture -> Materials -> Modify
Then I changed one of the parts by clicking it and applying a texture.

The Sunflow rendering engine is the standard rendering engine. You can download a plugin that uses a different rendering engine (Yafaray).
