Brick Patterns to a Material

[larry west]

I have 2 brick patterns in jpg format that I have been trying to convert to use for my brick walls. I have been unsecessful in
doing so. Is anyone willing to give it a try for me? email me @ lwest@larrywestdesigns.com (X-1 format.)

Larry, what have you not been able to do....convert texture to materials?

[larry west]

Tommy,
Thanks for responding. I have emailed you the patterns that I am working with.

Hi Larry, I'll look at them in about 30 min. or so. Just got up.

Larry, I had no problem bringing those textures into Chief. The problem is the way the images are cropped. You need to have a grout line on one side of the sides and one on the top or bottom so that it will tile correctly. Have you considered looking at the Acme website to fine those brick textures? They have a large selection to choose from. I have a jpeg with instructions on how to use their program and make an image that will be the same image sizes as what Chief uses.

Thanks, Doug
I am giving texture creator a try now. Is 524 x 524 the size that works in chief? the default for my texture in this program is 256x256.

That I'm not sure of....
Attached is a bunch of JPG for textures Iv'e successfully used in CA. Perhaps you or others can use.
Part 1 & 2 are brick patterns.

Larry, I just tried that program and I see it's not free as stated.......attached is one I've used in the past.
