Hi! So as the title says, I'd like to know how to create a custom texture for a mesh without any of it looking way too stretched or distorted. I use Windows 3D Builder to create my meshes, but it seems the way to texture on there is pretty horrible to use. Any advice please? Thank you! -𝓧

Just get a hold of the texture for a mesh, through the texture ID, viewable in studio. Then, you save that image and open it with an image editor, edit it as you please, publish to to ROBLOX as a decal, put that link in the texture ID in studio, there you go. I did this for the first time a week or two ago, and it isn't that bad; https://www.roblox.com/library/743689819/zz

P.S. I use ##### and the texture was for some apache rescue pilot helmet.

Okay, but I have created a mesh of my own; not someone else's mesh, but my own mesh, which means there has been no texture ever created for it before. So really, I need to know how to create a texture from scratch. -𝓧

My friend textures all of his meshes himself. He does it for me. I honestly don't work with that, but he's really good.. I don't know why I am saying this, because he's an "in the closet" developer.
