I know this problem may be blindingly obvious to you lot but I am a bit rusty and thought I'd ask since tour so nice!

Anyway I made this talking cube, did the animation then plonked a shader on it. When I rendered it the shader didn't move with the surface... How do you nail the texture to the surface or should I have textured it before animating?

im pretty sure you just have to parent the texture node to the cube by selecting it and then shift select the cube and hit p

although now that i think about it, i dont think this works for deformation, only for movement in x y or z

Yup you were right Turbo, it only works for the x,y, and z scenario... although I had forgotten that one user added image

I have tried plonking a file texture on it mapping it to the poly faces but that don't work either... someting apparently so easy is turning out to be a pain in the cyber...

Have a look to see what you think, it might just be my old age creeping in user added image

To my knowledge, you should complete the modelling, UVing and texturing before you start any animation.

I'm sorry I'm not too sure how to solve your problem though user added image

Same thing happens when you use CPS to model and animate. I layed out all the UVs on my finished model, built the skeleton, painted the weights, only to find my texture swimming through the model. Unfortunately I can't remember how I fixed it!
