Is there a way to alternate "flip" the coronapattern on an object? I.e. the way floorgenerator plugin works where it can flip boards randomly. So every now and then, my panel would flip on x or y axis to give more randomization?
I found the rotate function and set increments, but it doesn't give the result i'm after. I'm trying to do something like these facade panels (attached). Could probably get the effect I want by dividing the object and flip the UV mapping in some areas, but it would be very tedious and loose the flexibility coronapattern offers.
Also, I can't seem to get the "auto-gen caps" function to do anything (example attached).
And I'm having issues with seems. The object it's "scattered on" is fully welded in the corner, but I still get this result (attached)
Hi,
Generating caps works just like as if you used slice, and then cap holes modifier. Maybe it is capping, but you have shell modifier and it caps just the shell/thickness part. If you have the patter as a volume (rather than as a sheet of metal), it should work.
For flow/integrity of the pattern - as probably you have different faces at the intersection, the "cut" at the corner is expected, unless you play around with the height and offset of pattern to make it invisible. Another option will be to make a little chamfer at the corner (to smooth the transition) and check the UVs of the chamfered part.
Hope this helps.
