Texturing sculpt issues.
tracked
Eagle Himmel
I have been working with sculpts made for the leaves of trees. I was trying to copy the model so I could reproduce what the creator had intended so I could use my own textures. In the SL viewer, I cannot recreate the exact same texture. Scale must be set to H=2 V=256 Repeats per meter = 9, Offset is 0.500 for both H and V rotation is 90, Stitching type is a plane When I am in firestorm and use these options, It comes out perfectly. When I am in second life viewer, it does not work. I have tried everything. I cannot recreate the tree canopy with the sl viewer. I teach a class. I ALWAYS teach for the sl viewer. This is the first time I can't recreate something in the SL viewer. Do you have any recommendations? Why is it I can't recreate this simple sculpt texture in the SL viewer, but I have no problem at all in Firestorm?

Thanks Eagle and Frionil for the extra info!
It appears FS has the boundary on H and V scales set to [-10000, 10000]
This is now tracked here: https://github.com/secondlife/viewer/issues/3784

Just to add to this: it has been perfectly fine to set texture repeats outside [-100, 100] for a long time via scripts and Firestorm lets you do this via the build tool. The wiki documentation for texture scale claims the same [-100, 100] limit, but I recall doing Moiré pattern effects based on very high texture repeats years ago already with no issue either on server- or viewer side.
Even the LL viewer displays them correctly both as the actual texture as well as the values on the build tool - you just can't adjust the repeats values without it being bounded to [-100, 100] again. There should be no arbitrary bounds enforced by the LL viewer either since the server and rendering code clearly can handle much higher repeats.

Hi Eagle,
Are you able to provide an image of the Build floater in FS for us to clarify what you're trying to achieve here?
Are you also willing to send the FS made object to Atlas and/or Dan Linden for us to investigate this further?

Atlas Linden I will send a fs version and a sl version. The fs version will come from my alt Wolfgang Bumblefoot.
