uvw map with bump question

mga sir, di po ako natulunga ni google kaya sa inyo po ako magtatanong. how to separate bump map from diffuse map with uvw map mod? kapag nag stretch po kasi ako sa diffuse map sa uvw map mod, affected po pati bump map. is there a way to control the uvw map without affecting the bump map? TIA

under edit poly mode -->> go to edit geometry, tick the box for Preserve Uvs

If I read you correctly you want a separate control for the bumps right? So if you edit the UVW you want the mapping on the bumps retained, is that correct?

Well there are many ways to do that. One way is to copy the same UVW modifier and change its ID to something other than 1 (assuming the UVW ID of the first modifier is 1).

Then match the UVW ID of the bump map to this value.

THat way, whenever you edit the UVW of the first one, the bumps will still look at the scond UVW map and remain unaffected.

Ronel's suggestion was a solution to something else.

you're right. thought it was his problem. thanks sir V for the head ups.

thanks sir onel and sir v. correct sir v, that's what my problem is. i will try it later. thanks again.
