Hi

I have a problem in 3dc with getting small textures repeat themselves on a large object, I remember we had this option in TSM. I have a small texture (32x32) that i wanna use on a large object, I hope there is an option in 3dc that let me do this.

There is. In the material palette, left clicking on the flat wrap button brings up tiling options. There are other ways; search the help contents for Tiling.

Another option is to use the operation adjust tool (right toolbar) immediately after applying a texture operation.

This lets you use the shift and scaling widget to adjust the texture position and scaling (including repeating if you scale down) by eye.

It takes quite a lot of getting used to but can be very useful.
