one last thing, my block isnt a full block, it is something like this, the small block on the corner its 4x4 but is there a way i can make the texture for example 3x3 but without altering the size ?

FAQ

Blockbench: UV Mapping

Definition

A UV map or just "UV" is the information in a model, which parts of a texture are shown on which parts of a model. UVs can overlap and hence cause several parts to use the same area on the texture.

Editing a UV Map

You can edit a UV-map trough the UV window in the top left.
Make sure to have a cube selected which you want to UV map and freely resize/move the selection box in the UV window.
You cannot resize the UV selection if you're using Box UV

What do the value fields below the UV window mean?

Per-face UV: The first two values are the x/y position (with 0/0 being in the top left
corner) of the UV map, and the last two values its width and height.
Box UV: The 2 values are the x/y position of the UV map. The size of the UV map depends on the size of the respective cube.

I don't wanna bother with any of that, just let me draw on the model!:

Select all elements (Ctrl+A) and, create a new texture and make sure to select "Template" as type.
This will create a new texture that will keep already existing texture information, but assigns each element a unique section in the texture.

that or you make it bigger, then adjust the visual size with a negative inflate value (4th size value field)

so like 3x3x3, but with a -0.5 inflate value

basically what the second skin layer on a player does, but the other way round

[broken heart]

ohh

very cool

[broken heart]

with the inflate thingy can i do something like this with just inflate value?

[little void]

no

inflate just visually changes the size of the cube without affecting the size values and UVs (when using box or auto uv or when you generate a template texture)

[broken heart]

oh okay, ty

[broken heart]

i dont think im doing this correctly

the texture looks so weird

[little void]

because you gave it a positive inflation, not a negative one

[broken heart]

i meant the texture UV

i want to do that thing in a single texture but idk if its doable

[little void]

select everything, create texture, remove old texture

[broken heart]

weird

maybe because they are not full cubes?
