Herringbone Floor Pattern

[Nattyr]

I am trying to create a floor pattern that has a herringbone shape like the attached (a photo I found from the Internet). I have the material floor that i want to use but the direction of the planks is stripe. How do a get it to be a herringbone shape? There is a herringbone floor pattern option in Define Material but when I chose that it does nothing. Any help would be appreciate. HDP 2014.

Nattyr, if Kat's response is not what you need you made have to import / add it as a custom material. Try these if the other does not work.

Here is a link to a tutorial about making seamless textures for use as a custom material:
