struggling at a basic and probably dumb issue here. I want to use a generated texture that's supposed to create new texture instead of stretching the existing one. With a uv texture I'd know how to solve the problem, but how do I do it with procedural textures? When extruding in edit mode it does exactly what I want but then stretches after I go back to object mode.

The setup is just what you can see, only a musgrave texture with generated coordinates.

  • $\begingroup$ Well obviously that would work, but the texture I'm working on uses a multitude of textures and node groups all using generated coordinates. I tried to do that some time ago already but the result I got did not look like it did with generated coordinates, even after hours of tweaking and comparing. Is there no other way to make generated coordinates behave like object coordinates. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ then try to use the Scale values in the Mapping node to correct that? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ As I said already, I have tried that, and it does not work well for what I am trying to do. $\endgroup$
