turned on xy tiling and it's now appearing in the render. However, any tips on producing a stone type material would be welcome as at present it doesn't look that brilliant...
For reference the stone is a hard gritstone covered in lichen.
TIA

Hi
Thanks for the tip deadalvs. I'm more or less copying settings from the Arroway sandstone. Seems a reasonable way to learn.
One problem I'm having is when I load a map into the editor I get this
For some reason the map isn't showing right in the editor.
Any ideas?
TIA

Adri...
Make all your maps RGB (yes even the greyscale ones like your bump map..)... and all will be fine..
hope this help..
