UVs should stretch texture

Question

I would like to create a fence that is "buckled" (sorry, I don't know the correct translation). The fence should be affected a lot by gravity. If anybody knows how to explain that better, please tell me!

This is a picture:

I thought I would do this with a plane. I thought I should subdivide it and move the vertices around so that the textures will be stretched and shrunken in order to give create such a worn-out fence.

My approach looks like this:

However, when I put a texture onto my model in Unity3D, the texture is absolutely fine, but that is not what I wanted. :-) I wanted the texture to be uneven.

Can somebody tell me how I can achieve that? Thank you!

Before deforming the mesh, UV unwrap and assign the texture. Deform the mesh afterwards and the texture will deform with it. — , Jul 26 '15 at 16:41

Unwrap your mesh before deforming it will result in a good mapping.
Then when deforming the mesh, the texture will follow.

Do you know if there is a feature that would allow me to simply paint in distortions in Blender of the kind that I have introduced? – tmighty Jul 26 '15 at 21:46
