Yes, I've read those threads but my understanding may be limited. It just dawned on me that there are two ways to go about this, namely adjusting the texture area / orientation of specific surfaces versus adjusting the texture to fit the unwrapped surfaces. The latter will produce a texture with an "exploded view" of some adjacent surfaces.

Until now I've made the best out of straight side view textures--while I've used TCE to adjust the texture area for troublesome surfaces I haven't thought of tailoring the textures to fit the mapping. Does the proper use of LSCM involve re-editing of the texture?
