Thanks guys, subdivision helped, however the client was not impressed by the idea. He's a layman, but he consider himself as an expert, and anyway he's the client...

In order to do a proper hardware-based camera projection, you would need to interpolate the UVs as part of the fragment/pixel shading code. Otherwise, they'd need to add some sort of camera projection texturing mode to the OpenGL standard (assuming they haven't already? I'm not super current on these things.) By subdividing, you gradually converge on a better and better piecewise linear approximation of the camera projection. Like how integrals work. A "trick" I've used in the past is to apply the camera projection to a diced clone of my object, so that I can do all my modeling, etc underneath, on the lower res object. - Andy On Wed, Nov 7, 2012 at 8:59 AM, Andi Farhall <[email protected]> wrote: I've found simple cameramapped planes need some subdivisions to play nice.

I had an image of a room, and I had to build up the room's walls using simple planes. The image is then cameramapped (or projected) back onto these planes. I wanted to show the client the stuff in the viewport, and I was horrified, that the texture of the image was distorted to the point when I decided I can't show this to the client. I had to subdivide the planes about ten or more times to have some decent camera mapping. In render it was OK, but the client wanted to render it with HQV. Any idea? I'm especially interested a solution that doesn't involve too much geometry... Cheers Szabolcs ___ This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.
