Excellent tutorial. I liked that you went off on sub-topics. It gives us an insight into topics we may not have thought of. The wind was an excellent example of how a clothesline or flag would be modeled.

Hi Desmond.

The way to do this ‘assigning’ is to first create a material for your cloth and then create a texture.

Part 1:Change the type to Lmage or movie. Your image is the UV Grid you have just made in the Image editor. Under Image click that little image button next to the + New button and choose the UV Grid texture.

Part 2: Change the Mapping Co-ordinates from Generated to UV, (so that the size and texture of the Grid matches what you have done in the UV editor. Then click Render.

That is it. This is not a direct one to very easily figure out! It need a bit of experimenting to find it out. Now it is related to you, let’s hope it works! (It worked on mine).

Okay… How do I do that? I just spent a fair amount of time stumbling around the different properties panels, but I couldn’t find anything like that. It’s probably something obvious that will make me feel dumb.

Hi Desmond, make sure you have the texture assigned to the material in the material texture settings.
The preview the multi-texture display mode (default) gives you is just based on what is in the uv texture editor.

Nice tut, but I’m having a little trouble. When I try to make a final rendering of the animation, it doesn’t render the UV texture, so my cloth just looks grey. Any ideas?
