scaling textures in newest versions

Hey guys,

In the newest versions I can´t find the option to scale textures in the material tab. In the old versions it was easy to change the size and scale of the materials, whereas now the option seems to have vanished. I´m sure it´s still possible, but I need a quick hint on where to find it!

thanks guys

you can scale the materials by clicking the option "UV Transform/2d Transformation"

You can scale it in the x or y axis now, as well as translate or rotate, so it is much more powerful. Now scaling works in the inverse of before, so you actually would lower the value if you want the pattern to repeat more.

Also you can now change the UV type, so instead of using UV's that came with the model you can change it to box/spherical etc in the options. Very useful!
