Does anyone here have experience working with the roblox forcefield material

I need someone to tell me how / help me make the wall on the right with the hole in it, have the same effect as the other walls.

File;
WallDemo.rbxm (12.3 KB)

If anyone solves my issue I’ll give you 10k Robux.

Unioned parts with the ForceField material may not render properly if you overlay a texture on it.

A small workaround you can accomplish is by converting that negated wall into a mesh, and inserting your texture through the TextureID property once you import that mesh into studio.

Simply go to the negated wall in your explorer,

  • Right click the union
  • Find “Export Selection”
  • Save it to anywhere in your computer

Click on the Import 3D button in Studio.

And you can do the rest from there.

You will be given a MeshPart, and set it’s material to ForceField and put the texture in here:

Hope this works for you.

The UVs seem to be too big for the wall:

You can fix this in Blender:

  • First set your view to ortographic so that you see the wall head on (use the gizmo)
  • Then select the mesh and go to Edit Mode
  • Lastly select all faces and UV-unwrap them with Project from View (Bounds):

I don’t have blender installed. But if you can send me a file with the issue fixed the 10k is yours

I don’t really need a payment since it wasn’t too big a task. Here’s the file, I made the wall use a SpecialMesh so it also has a glow like the other walls: Forcefield_Wall_Hole1.rbxm (3.1 KB)
