Here is a texture that I've done for one of the hospital buildings of were I work . ok I did the texture free hand yes. The only way I can get this to texture right is by object front and only this side like shown ubove. I tried to flattin the building so to texture all sides of the building and heres the problem when I make it a tiff file in Photoshop and render in bryce the all side texture I did only shows at the top of the building, I tried doing the texture in the diffrent formats in bryce but nothin works any Ideas let me know. Thanks in advance.

Ok I figured it out. Kind of stupid actually. First the 3d model in this pic the walls must be ungrouped then apply textures to each wall,Individually to get something like this. Sounds so simple but yet can be lengthy but,as I found out,this is only way this can be done. " hmmm maybe I should make a tutorial,lol.

I wonder if things would be easier if you make the building of 6 flat planes? If in the destination picture you can see only 2 sides, maybe just add 2 walls.

Here's another tip.. You notice how in your original tif, the letters are crisp and in the bryce render they come out fuzzy, it's because you don't have the same resolution on your tiff as your end product.. What that means is, do the texture tiff at 72 dpi and you'll get crisp letters at 72 dpi render... If you do 300 dpi texture and 72 dpi render, you get fuzzy letters... :)

This is one of five buildings, in a large area of were I work. With this updated pic I got rid of the painted on fences, and made my own in amapi. and I also updated the model with the platforms and fences.
