Hello !

I have an image - for example a picture of a cat (.jpg)

And all want is to put this Image on a Wall in my Project and then perhaps resize it a bit. How can i do that ?

I found Tutorials about Materials, Textures, Decals and so on … But I only want to put a Picture on a Wall … When I create a Material or whatever from this Image it allways fills the whole Object with 2674682746 repeating Images …

Thank you.

Hi stuartew,

You mentioned that you looked into decals. This would be the best way to approach what you are doing. The material applied to the wall vs a decal can be seen below.

Follow the below tutorial on how to quickly setup a decal in your level.

It’s normal for materials to tile like this, it’s actually a feature. Look up ‘tile-able textures in games’ for more info.

The other option would be to create a single plain and apply a material to it. Take a look in the Reflections demo on the Marketplace for an example of this in action. The posters in the level are done this way.

I hope this helps.

Thanks, TJ
