EEEK! Urgent! BEEOOOW!

[Mr. Jaqe]

I'm doing this thing for something at school, a small landscape with a house. All I'm missing are roof tiles... I've tried searching the web and creating some myself, but what I make suck and the images I find are useless... 'elp please?

 

PS. They kinda need to be black.

What kind of tiles are we talking here? If I had a photo reference I could probably do it... Email me, because I'll hear the email come in, and I won't be checking the forums.

I kinda need regular, flat tiles, a little bit like the tiles on the image below, exept they have to be black.

 

PS. this was the closest I got to crafting black tiles out of red ones. As you see, it didn't work out very well...

 

iGeek: my mail claims that your mailadress is invalid.

Emilios Sweeper/duplicator could probably do that real quick.

[Mr. Jaqe]

how? create one "slab" and then duplicate it along a lot of paths?

[iGeek]

Yes. That should work. Also you could just use copy and paste. It will go up by powers of 2. Sorry I wasn't able to be of more help. No idea what's wrong with igeek1@mac.com. It should be working. Of course if time runs out just use a decal of the shingles. I imagine that for a school project this is way beyond anything anyone else is doing anyway. They'll excuse you if your model isn't straight out of PIXAR's renderfarm...

As a solution, I used a .mat with cales and some others sassy stuff applied. However I got a delay on it since I ain't really all happy with it and now another problemo has appeared: I used the hair-grass tut on my grass, but now the color won't stick on the grass, the decal won't color the grass, but the ground It worked, but then I had to remove the mat and apply it again and now it doesn't work. I've tried resetting everything, but I just can't seem to find the biggie.
