Hello guys!
Sorry about the stupid and newbie question, I´m not a modeller, I just know the basics of the basics in Blender. The problem is that I´m building a simple model of a Terminal for a flight simulator´s scenery and I´m using the UV Image Editor to apply this texture to the side-faces of the terminal:
And I want blender to do this with the face:
But instead of repeating the texture in a Tile-style, Blender is actually stretching the image all the way over the face like this:
What should I do

I use blender 2.36
Regards!

Hey I don't really know if you can do image clipping for texture but if you can, I would create a new material, clip the image to the pixels you want and it should do the trick.

Merci Pierre!
I don´t have much idea how to do that, but I´ll try to mess around and see if I can figure it out!
By the way, Quebec is a very nice city!
Cheers

either:
a) split the face into three [the new n-divide works nicely] and uv map each face with the whole of that region
b) make that ITS OWN IMAGE, and uv map the face to go the entire height, but 3 times as long [stick off both sides by the width of the texture]
trying to do repeating sub-regions of a texture is not the correct approach
