is there -any- way to get around the texture warping on cubes whose tops have been sized down (making them tetrahedrons and the like)? I just made an octagonal floor, only to find that I cannot properly texture it as the textures warp hideously.

Check out these two threads:
Robin Sojourner's Inworld Texture Tutorials Lex Neva's Hexagon You'll find that Robin's Photoshop actions are wonderful time-savers for exactly what you're trying to do. Just keep in mind there is no perfect solution though. Offsetting half the texture to counter the distortion causes that half to be a different resolution than the other half. As a result, while it will line up right, it will appear a bit fuzzy. _____________________
