 ==== Setting up brushes for sculpting ====
   * You can refer to this guide for setting up brushes. {{ :ig.guidelines:sculpttexturesetup.pdf |}}
-  * Blend file with ready-made brushes that can be appended to your current blend file : [[https://nextcloud.intelligentgraphics.biz/index.php/s/kMDgfPDxEgapMki]] or added individually as a texture you can download from [[https://nextcloud.intelligentgraphics.biz/index.php/s/AgemeEKeJ6pc9px]]
+  * Blend file with ready-made brushes that can be appended to your current blend file : [[https://nextcloud.intelligentgraphics.biz/index.php/s/kMDgfPDxEgapMki]]
   * Guide on how to append data : [[ig.guidelines:modelling_geometries#appending_data_from_other_blend_files]]
   * **Note:** If you find your brush not working properly try changing the Mapping found in the Texture settings of the brush. Most brushes work best the Mapping set to Area/ View Plane or Tiled. See the Blender documentation for more infos.
   * If your brushes still have unpredictable behaviour check if there is any scaling applied to your mesh.
   * Blender Doc for textured brushes [[https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/sculpt_paint/brush/texture.html]]
+  * You can also download the individual brush textures from here : [[https://nextcloud.intelligentgraphics.biz/index.php/s/AgemeEKeJ6pc9px]]

+==== Chesterfield Pattern ====
+**Note:** This works best on meshes that have not been subdivided yet as they are easier to control.
+  * Make sure the topology fits to your desired patern size. Select the entire area the chesterfield Pattern should be modelled at.
+  * Click 'Select' -> 'Checker Deselect'
+{{ :ig.guidelines:chesterfiel1.jpg |}}
+  * Click 'Vertex' -> 'Connect Vertex Pairs'
+{{ :ig.guidelines:chesterfiel2.jpg?nolink |}}
+  * Optionally Bevel the selected Vertices using Bevel with restricted Affect on Vertices.
+{{ :ig.guidelines:chesterfiel3.jpg |}}
+  * You can now add a Subdivision Modifier and further fine tune the pattern.
+{{ :ig.guidelines:chesterfiel4.jpg |}}
+==== Tree Trunk Tabletop ====
+  * Create a base recangle with the desired measurements, make sure it has enough subdivision on the edges you want to deform.
+  * Add  Displace Modifier and set the Direction to the Axis you want the trunk shape to be at.
+  * Create a new Texture.
+{{ :ig.guidelines:trunktable1.jpg |}}
+  * Head into the Texture Properties and choose 'Cloud'
+{{ :ig.guidelines:trunktable2.jpg |}}
+  * Play around with Size and Depth until you find a shape that fits to your Tabletop.
+{{ :ig.guidelines:trunktable3.jpg |}}
+  * Adjust the Strength of the Displace Modifier until you get the desired shape and apply the modifier.
+{{ :ig.guidelines:trunktable4.jpg |}}
+  * Add Bevels and Sharp edges where needed, and check the measurements again in case they need to be adjusted after applying the modifier.

+==== Switch UV Map Order ====
+Sometimes Data gets delivered with the wrong Order of UV Maps.
+To switch them , simply head to Attributes, click on the UV Map that should be at the bottom (usually the Normals UV)
+and click 'convert attribute'
+The selected UV will now be at the bottom.
