Match two textures identically

Hi! Im trying to match the texture of a smaller surface with a bigger mesh exported from the blender/google earth workflow
But when i try to adjust it it seems there is always something off. The mesh has a surface mapping with a perfect square image, instead for the smaller surface i tried applying a planar mapping from top and grabbing the exact size of the bigger square but it doesn’t quite match the texture bellow, i attach screencaps from the different texture mapping settings

Is there a way to simply project the texture below to the surface on top? Thanks for any help

Hi Daniel - planar mapping should work - apply the same plane to both objects. Apply planar mapping to the larger object - assuming that is actually what you want - and then MatchMapping the smaller one.

Thanks for the reply! applying planar mapping modifies the texture on the bigger mesh and that one is the one i want to keep, i actually want the smaller surface to adjust to that projection and match the bigger one! Running the matchmapping command doesn’t return any effect on the smaller target surface

Hi Daniel - something of a shot in the dark but try applying the larger mesh as a custom mapping object to the smaller one.

Returns this very strange result :frowning:

Nevermind, managed to import the original image to rhino and matched it to the bigger mesh so i could use the size of the image as guide for the planar projection. Thanks still for the suggestions!
