View Full Version : Bump maps wont scale?!!

I'm having a rather frustrating problem. I have an orange slice, nicely textured with several images and a bump map. Renders fine.

I now want to take that orange slice into a scene with a character, which means I have to scale it down to almost .1 as it was modeled at 8 SI across. When I do this, the image maps scale fine, but the bump map gets screwed, the bumps get HUGE.

Whats causing this? I'm sure its user error because I've never experienced textures not scaling with the object in any other software - but we're new to XSI.

Help please.

Hi.
You can insert the object into a model and then scale the model or if you scale the object directly go to transforms and hit freeze scale.

use a null, not a model. Models are for other things.
