Common Issues

Edition: Core and Pro unless stated otherwise.

Create Guides is disabled

Select the intended polygon mesh, then click Select Mesh. The tool expects valid UVs on that mesh.

Create Control cannot run

At least one Step 1 guide must exist, and the stored mesh/guide objects must still be present in the scene. Return to Step 1 if the mesh or guide was deleted.

The texture does not move as expected

Select the slide control and adjust its Precision attribute. Lower it when the control moves too fast; raise it when movement is too slow.

Build Final fails

Confirm that every main texture row has a real selected file path. Check the Maya Script Editor warning, verify the source file still exists, then rebuild. Texelator captures the previous material input and restores it when the build fails.

The wrong placement method was selected

Use Step 3 Revert, change Projection?, and click Build Final again.

An image sequence does not animate

Enable the sequence checkbox only when the filename has a numeric block before the extension and matching files exist in the same folder. If the pattern cannot be detected, adjust the selected source or inspect the script-editor warning.

Pro child layer behavior is unexpected

Check the child's Control? option. Enabled creates an independent control; disabled means the child follows its owner. Review Mask System.
