Adding to clusters

[ob1]

Hello folks, lets say just for example.... you are texturing a truck and you are creating different clusters for the top texure side etc and after you have applied a material and a texture you realize you have missed a few polygons, is it possible to select them polys add to the cluster apply the material and the same texture so it blends seamless with the current textured truck?

Yes, select the cluster, select the polygons you want to add, (using either SHIFT or CTRL) right click and choose Add To Cluster.

To add polygons to an existing cluster,
Select the polygons you want to add,
Open the Explorer, find the cluster,
Select the cluster with shift key,
Do MCP > Edit > Add to Cluster

For the texture mapping you will have to rescale the Texture Support to include the newly added polygons (if you didn't freezed the Texture_Projection).

If you edited uv coordinates in the Texture Editor, you will have to make the new sample points fit the other ones, as the sample points of the newly added polygons will probably be detached from the others. This is an example where the Heal function is useful.

Hope this helps
