How do fix stretched UVs on pitched roof model

Hello,

I am new to rendering and UV unwrapping where I am having issues with my pitched roof model UVs being stretched and distorted from the moment the pitch starts. This is currently happening on all pitched roofs on this scene. I have been using automatic projection for most of this scene.

Here are some screenshots to show the issue I am having:

Thank you for anyone helping in advanced!

I would try dividing the mesh again at the top into tri's if you have to. Then just add in it's Uv's layout ontop of the squared Uv's. Also I wouldnt count on its automated map (just for that roof part- assuming theres two so you'll do this twice --->I would trying using planar mapping & adjusting from there. Hope it helps.

You still have the default UV map, you need to start with a simple Automatic mapping and watch more UV mapping tutorials.

Best Regards.

Hello,

Thank you, turned out I forgot to use automatic unwrapping.
