flexible hose

[Anonymous]

hello everybody I am wondering how i can model something like this flexible hose. thanks

Try some of the web sites listed in Sean's weekly FAQ posting for tutorials on how to make a hose. A simple sweep might do. Then create a new colour and apply a texture to it. The one used to simulate threads seems to be a good candidate for you. Apply this colour to your new hose and you're done.

it might help to use the 3d spline to create the sweep paths "Richard Hinterhoeller" wrote in message news:408686de_3@newsprd01... > Try some of the web sites listed in Sean's weekly FAQ posting for > tutorials on how to make a hose.

Probably the easiest is to model the 3D tube and then use a texture to simulate the hose. Kathy Johnson

Richard; here it is i tried what you told me to do pattern is not following the way i need it to be am i missing something ? any ideas thank you all for the replies "KJohnson" wrote in message news:40868940$1_1@newsprd01... > Probably the easiest is to model the 3D tube and then use a texture to > simulate the hose. > > Kathy Johnson > >

There is a nice tutorial @

I think Charles did the .avi >> works well, and it is adaptive

Make sure the texture pattern is either vertical or horizontal because if you use angles, it will cause the problem you have.

Experiment with texture scale and rotation.

Further to everyone else's responses, you might find you need more than one textured colour. For example, when I texture wood grain, I often have to apply a 0° texture to some features and a 90° texture to others.

I still got the same as Mustafa did no matter what I tried - Vertical or horizontal texture pattern "Derek Sevier" wrote in message news:408691dc_2@newsprd01... > Make sure the texture pattern is either vertical or horizontal because if > you use angles, it will cause the problem you have.
