I'm trying to recolour a 2t4 conversion, but when I change the texture of the table these odd seams appear. (There's a coloured stripe in that area on the original texture so it's not noticeable there.)  So far I've tried fiddling with my graphics settings, making the bump and specular map blank & deleting doubles in that area on the "normal" and shadow LODs. (I've gone back to how I set up the package originally since then, but can upload those other files if needed.) Here's my current package & blend. I'd appreciate any help figuring out how to fix this as I'm stumped! |

hi! I removed doubles and there were some still there to fix. So i'm assuming that it should fix the issue. Change to solid & smooth shading so you can view things better. turn off "limit selection"  In plane selection, hover with your mouse the lower part and press L to select. Then do the same upwards so you have selected all that is shown in the image. Then remove doubles. Also, if that doesn't work. You might want to reduce the scale of the middle part in the UV that is giving you trouble.  |

inabadromance thanks for your help! I tried both things you suggested but the seam still won't budge. I got bit fed up with the whole thing and tried making those sides of the table into one big face, which fixed the seams, but also introduced a weird problem to where no matter how straight my new uv map is, the stripes on the table show up crooked only one side. orz

You probably need to re map those parts to fix that. I'm not sure what steps you made, but from the selection i showed in my last screen you have to press supr and from the little menu select "dissolve edges". That will create a full and clean plane (you have to do this on each side individually after you've removed doubles. If you still see inner edges it means that you haven't removed doubles properly. After you have those two planes, select each one and head over to the UV tab and unwrap the uv by selecting the "unwrap" option under "uv mapping". You'll need to move each uv part to their correct space.
I've noticed you have sync on in the uv screen, i would disable that.

inabadromance thank you so much! I'd made the mistake of having both sides of the table be same shape on the uv map, but they're actually sightly different from each other when unwrapped properly. Everything looks great now. c:
