Hi All!

I'm working on a house object and trying to add a corrugated aluminium image map
 to its roof.

I'm using Forge (an absolutely indespensible tool! :->) with Essence stripes and
 then generating a repeating brushmap which I map onto the roof in Imagine 2.9.

The problem is because the corrugations are so close together and repeating, whe
n viewed from any reasonable distance (i.e. anything other than super closeup) t
he repeating identical nature of the stripes creates a moire pattern on the roof
 that looks really dumb!

I've tried turning off anti-aliasing EDLE = 255 and turning it to maximum EDLE =
 0.  Neither really fixes the problem.

Any Ideas??

P.S. I'm also finding that 2.9 will about every 8th frame mess up the brick map 
on the walls and instead render the walls white.  ERK!
