Hi there,

tex_map is documented on page 306 of Jitter tutorial 15. You will find an example of it's use in the jit.gl.model help file.

Mode 2 is sphere mode. It is just another way of applying the texture you've already created. To make it work (as you may have noticed you have to select the tex_map mode before applying the texture. You can alter this the way you would any source (you mentioned magnification?) such as jit.qt.movie. Maybe try a jit.rota? I have not yet tried changing the planemap but you can try it in the jit.gl.model help file.

perhaps wes smiths texplane manipulator patch will help.
send the output of the subpatcher to the gl object you are applying the texture to.
