I am trying to simulate image deformation effects using textures over 2D geomtries using the ThreeJS library. I want to apply a texture image over a hollow circle (basically, a ring built by the THREE.RingGeometry function) and obtain the results shown at this image: Following I show the results I am obtaining in my scene both for the solid ring and its wireframed version: The problem is that, as you see, the texture is been applied in a radial way, from the center of the ring to the outside. However, what I really need is to apply the texture image on a concentric circle way, as shown in the first image of this question. The idea is to produce a deformed version of the original texture over a ring shape. I would like to know how this effect can be programmatically achieved through Three.js in such a way that the destination shape can be any arbitrary 2D geometry . Following, there is the relevant code I am using to draw my scene: var texture = THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture('./images/texture.png'); var wireRing = new THREE.Mesh(new THREE.RingGeometry(10, 20, 50, 5, 0, Math.PI * 2), new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({map: texture, wireframe: true})); wireRing.position.set(-25, 50, 0); scene.add(wireRing); var ring = new THREE.Mesh(new THREE.RingGeometry(10, 20, 50, 5, 0, Math.PI * 2), new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({map: texture})); ring.position.set(25, 50, 0); scene.add(ring);
