@Beack5 Ha thanks. The pie slices + radial clone is an updated technique, it's even better + faster

i tried that, but even with a texture selected it just is a multi coloured mess of colours with no texture. i try to select the pie pieces, but they dont change their texture, and they stay the same. i still can do everything else, like the u and v texture boxes, and the segments and make the pie hollow and into a halfpipe, but not change its texture.

@randslider123 Does it texture normal blocks correctly?

[randslider123]

how do you get your view to be 3 screens instead of 4? also, how do you get the pie to be that texture at the start. mine just ends up multi-coloured. (btw, i have 1.0.6

[perishingflames]

@randslider123 it just uses whatever texture is active. and you can customize the layout of the program by clicking on the little dropdowns in the top left of each section.

all the other blocks and shapes ive tried have textured fine.
