Hi Octaners.

I have a beginner question. I have this mountain I made with a displacement. It look great without any texture on. Then I want to texture it with a rocky texture (from megascans), but the problem is, when I add the texture to the plane with the mountain, it’s way to big, so I have to scale it down quite a bit - when I do that, the tiling/repetition becomes really visible, and it looks fake. So my question is. How would you texture a mountain, without all the texture tiling/repetition.

I hope it makes sense. Otherwise please feel free to ask for more info.

Best regards

Hi Nichlas,
have a look at the uvw transform node:

There is also a useful osl projection node, but I cannot find the link at the moment, sorry.

Hi Beppe.

Thank you for the link. I’m in cinema4d with the octane plugin. Is it the same process then?

Best regards
Nichlas

Hi Nicholas,
yes sure, have a look at c4d manual here:

In c4doctane, you can also use a Projection node in Oslo projection mode, and search in the Presets for tiling.osl, or something similar.
