Is there a way, using the UV Project Modifier to project an image to only the visible surfaces of an object? Let's say you have a cube. You can only see max 3 of the 6 sides at a time. Now if you use a UV Project modifier all 6 sides will have the image texture on them even tho 3 are not directly visible to the camera. Is there a way to fix this issue? I could manually create a UV map by going into camera view, selecting everything that is visible to the camera and UV-project from view, but I need it working automatically since I want to use it in a script.

Thanks for your help!

  • Most likely because the Image Texture node of your material is set to 'Repeat' (it's the default), if you set it to 'Clip' it should work fine. Doesn't it? – brockmann Nov 06 '21 at 19:49
  • No it is set to clip. This results in the surfaces outside the camera view being black/transparent not textures but doesn't affect the surfaces that are behind other surfaces in the camera view. Thank you anyways for your suggestion! – Timmethy Nov 06 '21 at 20:18
