I was making a scene the other night with the Vue cubes. I inscreased the height on all of the cubes to make them look like pillars. I then applied the stony moss material on them. The pillars had the material on all sides. Here's the problem I ran into: I positioned one of the stone pillars on it's side horizontally, as if it was fallen on the ground. When I did this, the side of the pillar facing up to the sky had lost the moss effect. It looked almost plain actually. Why did this happen? When I turned the pillar so it is vertical, the material goes back to normal. Is this because of the azimuth and all of that nonsense that I do not care about? heheheh If so, I did read a short tutorial around here to someone's site that showed a graphic of all the azimuths but that was a bit confusing. What i want to do is have that material not change when i turn the pillar on it's side. Any ideas/suggestions? TIA!
