Prevent texture to seem streched?
I have two cubes. One works as a floor and one works like a wall in a 2.5D plattformer game. I have added a 512x512px texture to a material for floor and for wall. On the floor I have the tiling x:3 y:1 and the wall x:1 y:3. I am trying to prevent there beeing any streching in the textures. Are there any "best practices" to prevent streching of the texture? Specialy when one material is focused on the Y axis and the other on the X axis? Any suggestion?
You can use independent textures for both objects, suited to fit the objects.
I have one texture for wall and one for floor, but still with tilling etc. it´s hard to make it match. So what I am wondering is if it is a good way to solve it?
You can make a "Cube" in a 3D art program and use UV unwrapping to make a texture that fits around the cube.
Not sure why you are tiling the texture placed on the cube? The tiling is what is stretching the Texture.
The simplest way is just to make a Material for each one and do the math. If you have a 15 meter long, 3 meter high, Cube-wall and want the texture to repeat every 1/2-meter, tile it 30 times on x and 6 on y. Can be a pain, but you can copy a Material through the top Edit button.
The "Pro" way might be that walls won't be cubes -- they will really be models with smoothed tops, jagged sides, little bends. Then, as per BStonemans 2nd comment, the modeler would unwrap them in a way to pre-tile it (so the Material would always have tile=1/1 but would still tile on that wall.)
