Re: Bump not able to interpret UV Wrap?

Turn off 'clamp' in the Bump Generator node in the Render Tree. Also make sure 'wrap UV' is turned on in the Texture Editor. That should fix the problem. On Thu, Jun 26, 2014 at 6:43 PM, John Richard Sanchez < youngupstar...@gmail.com> wrote: > I don't think I have run into this before but I was
