Cube mapping- wrapping images

vvvv beta general
1

Im playing round and have wrote half a patch to pixel map to a cube, which is the easy part, the problem is how to map a video or an image to the cube, i created a moving ball effect in flash but cheated by creating it so that when the ball left one side of the “folded out cube” a second ball gave the illusion of flow, same with the top and bottom flaps. Is there a way around this using shaders to “join” the edges?
Its hard to explain but the patch may explain more.

maybe the patch at node08.workshop.VirtualArchitecture can help.

you could render a 3d scene 6 times (for the 6 sides of the cube) and then project the images back onto the cube.

if you want to try that don’t hesitate to ask for help.
