Why is my Texture not displaying on a Plane in Element 3D.

HI,

I recently tried to attach a texture to a Plane I created in Element 3D The texture was downloaded as a PNG file, precomposed and designated to the texture 1 slot properly and when I applied the texture to the Plane as a diffused texture I get nothing. I have tried to designate other textures as well and got the same results. I hope i am explaining this correctly and can get some assistance or suggestions to resolve this. I really want to work with this texture in this project.

Thanks in ADvanced.

Correct answer imeilfx

So you did prepare your texture and put it into precomp

then you put e3D layer and e3D on it and assign your texture in custom texture in e3d settings

after that in e3D settings you assign your custom texture to your pane

And nothing?
Is that what happens? But when you try to apply your texture in diffuse window (last picture bottom right corner) you can see your texture but you can't see it on your plane or you can't see it in settings either?

For me, the duration of my precomposed texture was the issue. It was shorter than my main comp's. Once I extended the amount of frames to match the main comp, my textures showed up again in the preview.

Holy cow I was going mad over this problem! Just made the main comp shorter and everything works now, THANK YOU SO MUCH!

what version of the plugin do you have? I have 2.2.0
I set the texture parameters exactly as in the main composition, but this did not solve the problem, maybe it's the plugin version? or something else I'm missing

Any workaround on this ele3D issue, noticed that the precomp texture does not appear in extrusion (in scene). However, outside of scene, inside the main comp area texture will appear.

Hi

This is correct. What I see on the Plane model is the default (white) texture.

Thanks

Ok. So maby try to import any jpg file (does not matter what) and try to use as a texture and check if it showes. If it works - that meat that Element can see custom textures but for some reason can't see that exact precomposed texture of yours. Then we will look for that reason.
