Using Real world units with Corona Triplanar map?

[ONO]

Hey is there any option on how to use Real world units with Corona Triplanar map? All it shows is scale there is no option to use real world units

Corona triplanar is by definition working in real-world scale. In fact it can't work in any other way. Scale in triplanar is the same as real-world scale in bitmap. Just make sure that your bitmap tiling is set to 1 in U and V or close to that if your texture is not square and control map scale in Corona triplanar. It's even simpler than with Max's real-world scale, since you don't need to bother with UVs and RW checkboxes.

Thanks romullus for the reply. The issue is the map I'm using isn't square hence the need for the real world scale since the scale provide by the triplanar assumes the texture is square. Should I input the dimension of longer side of the texture in the triplanar scale slot?

In case the texture is not square, adjust tiling in bitmap accordingly, i.e. if texture is 2048 x 1024 set the U tiling to 1 and V tiling to 2. Scale in triplanar should be set of the longer side then, because its tiling is 1. Hope that makes sense.
