hmmm, and you could use this method to get 'chunks' of texture projected
onto the particles?

 

don't suppose you have a scene lying around?

Hi,

 

Done it before by grabbing the texture projection in the Ice tree & then
calculating the fractional UV values needed per particle using their
position etc...

 

Forgot how I piped them back ,  via custom attributes into the rendertree
sounds likely.

yes and no, that was for procedural fractal noise on a billboards

 

this time i want is basically a xz planar projection on box particles, so
they have texture on them, NOT just colour

 

if it's any consolation, it works in maya ;o)

regarding method (and no luck searching the archive)

 

have a grid of box particles emitted from points on a grid.... and we want
to project a texture onto the particles, rather than just inherit emission
colour from texture map...

 

so if the image projected is a photo, each box has part of the photo mapped
on it.....

 

anyone?
