I was able to turn, twist, shrink, skew, stretch or do lots of things with the texture. it can be positioned, moved left to right, up down, centered. If I wanted it to wrap around a dinosaurs sinewed body shape, I would probably need a third application like blender or X frog, but then again, I haven't delved into it that far.

If I click on the tiling box and change the 1.0 to 2.0 the brick texture will repeat tile 100% smaller, or twice as often and the bricks would get smaller.

This is the result after calculating the size of the cube against the size of the texture. With just a guess and some eyeballing, the closest setting was 0.8

Again, this isn't really answering your question, but it gave me chance to test my bricks some more. I kind of like their appearance on Gmax models. Especially on SimCity4 renders.

You're welcome.

Since this post, been delving into it more. I can skew my textures on purpose by manipulating the models angle against the lighting. Also tried different lighting and positions, but the textures seem to bulge outward or inward, no matter what. Sometimes for no apparent reason when applied, they are jagged in different directions. Even on a flat plane.
