I created a poker table, and when I applied the felt texture to each piece it stretches differently due to different dimensions.

I have attached the two ends, so I would like to apply the texture as one piece to all of it if there is a way.



Thanks

Use the paint bucket or duplicate the object but you can't apply the texture as one piece because they are two separate objects

Where is the Paint Bucket tool? 

Can the object be exported as 1 piece and reimported as one object so a texture could be applied to all of it at once?

Thanks for the reply

I found the paint tool, that worked, but doesn't look as good as a texture. 

I am waiting on Reallusion to answer me on the price to upgrade to export ability; I think once exported as a single object this would collapse it so a texture can be applied.

If you used standard (built-in) props (which you seem to do), then 3DXchange Pro would be sufficient.

If your table consists of a prop with other props attached, there will be an option to merge them into one with the prop (I've currently a project loaded into iClone, so I can't show you).

My thought is you're suffering from UV maps with inconsistent texel density.

INSERTED...
Normally I direct people to the Substance Painter "texel density" video.  I just ran across this video, and the beginning explains it pretty good, I think.  I haven't watched the whole thing yet, but from about 1:12  to 1:40 it gives a pretty good indication of inconsistent density.
Also see 6:17 to 6:55.  You want the "squares" to be close to the same size all over the item.  If not, you get inconsistent stretching and inconsistent blurring across the model.

Now back to the original post...

Here's a video that explains it pretty well.  You don't need to be a master at it, but it's good to have an understanding of the issue.

Thanks all for the replies. I have to go for my run before it gets hot, but I will watch the videos when I get back.

I think it may be because it is early, but the Density thing sounds complicated. My brain needs to wake up before I try and comprehend that.

DJ, if you used 3 pieces of primitives... (let me guess 2 arcs and a cube?), then indeed, not much you can do inside the iClone to have a single texture applied to all 3 pieces. You can attach one to another, merge, but you would still have 3 materials. In this particular case you can play with tiling for the center piece (in appropriate direction), until it matches the density of the corner pieces. Depending on the texture flow direction, the border line between pieces might, or might not be visible. And for education you indeed need to watch the video by JAV to see how the UV maps relate to the shapes and forms of the object.

Here is quick video I put together showing a possible solution inside of the iClone (depending on your texture it might look better or worse):

Thanks for the great video. Actually I used a box and two cylinders and scaled them down.


Had I known about the existence of an object called an Arc, I would have used an Arc.
Before I forget, where is the option to create an Arc? That might actually work for my other question which is how to cut a Torus in half. An Arc is already a semicircle, that sounds like what I need.

I will look at the tiling option. I tried a couple of attempts at resizing a copy of the texture to a few different width proportions and it didn't work.

I am awake now after an 8.2 mile run (with a half a mile walk drinking a gatorade), so I will try all your suggestions.

Thanks

I found the Arc, and a bunch of other Props:

Thanks, I only knew about Create > Primitive Shape, this gives me a lot more props.
