Need help to remap the searchlight's beam
 
Hello,

I would like to create a very long beam for the land searchlights. The problem is that the 3D model of the beam is not properly mapped with the texture. Have a look :





So, I would like the texture to be placed correctly on each rectangle which compose the beam model.



Moreover, it seems that a kind of shadow is applied on the model, and I would like to keep this effect. I have added a blue color in order you can see that better :



About the basis (the small circle on the searchlight's head), it has to be plain white (no modifications to do) :



Anyone to do this little work ?

:)

Thank you for the help, but it's not better. So, I choose a radical treatment, and it's good enough (better than before) :

The beams look better, but it's far from perfect. :-?
