here is a couple of more textures I have been messing around with, Sea Shale & Pebbles, again DDS files and PNG's included if used with sand, sand 2 they blend perfectly.

Screen shots not very good because of the white lines and grey shadow, but you get the idea

UPDATE: added video to see it more clearly

I haven't seen a wave script, but Rolfy has some wave models in the store, and they look great, although I haven't tried them with the new shaders.

added a gravel road, not happy with the texture just yet will upload when I have finished tweaking it, this time I have used slot 1 , 2 and 3 rembering not to touch slot 4 I used that previously for my forest path blend, so slot 1 grass, slot 2 another variation of grass and my gravel in slot 3



UPDATE: added texture upload, its not perfect I'm not really any good at this but you get the general idea

ok something a little bit different, I have merged two textures together, painting carefully gives a good effect



I suppose it is a path and if I modify the texture I could have a continuous path with no gaps in the middle and perfect straight edges

This all looks great because you are limiting yourself to textures that are close together, but what if you have a nicely graded landscape using all your textures, then you want to put a path that goes through areas that have textures from each end of the pallet, that's the issue i have.

My map goes from the shore through a few varieties of sand, then mud, then sparse grass on mud, then grass, then sparse mud on stony ground, then stony ground, and then a few grades of rock. Now if i want a mud path to go from one end of it, as i pass through the grass area from it's fine, but when it gets into the rocky area the number of bands gets more an more and starts to look really bad, that's where we have an issue with the layering blend.

The blend layers are great in general use on the landscape, but there's some areas it just doesn't look good, i don't want all the layers removed and blended across all textures, i just want say the last 4 to be layer free blend for paths and such.

I hear what you are saying and I do not disagree, the idea of this was to help people grasp the idea of using there own textures and working with what we have now, I am sure Lee is going to improve and expand on this base system, you guys have helped and taught me a lot I am no artist but I can get around paint packages. There are a lot of new people here that all this may help them to grasp the more professional users like yourself whom know what they are doing and know what they need from GG have certain needs that only Lee can help with all others users just starting out just need to know what you can do with these new features.

I would like all the textures on the terrain to blend perfectly without all this messing around but unfortunately we don't have that yet but I am sure it will come in the meantime there is nothing wrong with increasing the texture base for the terrain and I quite enjoy trying different things I'm hoping by the end of it I will have a perfect set of 16 textures for my level and then I will work on level 2 and go through the same process so then each level will have its own palette

Is it possible to make path terrains in a format that allows transparencies so that the edges can blend? Wouldn't that solve some of the issues Belidos mentions? Say, PNG, maybe? I was going to experiment with that, but i haven't had time. I thought of making some terrain props to blend certain spots, but I really haven't played much with the new system. Guess I'll just have to grab a shovel and get digging. See what happens.

I bought those wave props by Rolfy a while ago. They're nice.

Thaks, btw, for the textures. Your terrain is developing nicely.

This is what Lee as now given us with the latest update, whatever texture you put in Slot 1 is now a second layer that blends perfectly, the only drawback is you are limted to the one texture for your path so I am afraid you are back to 'gradients' if you want to blend nicely.

What kind of path would you like I'm sure I can put something together for you

Great source http://www.textures.com/

Tried one of the road textures, worked ok when painting textures, but banding was a problem, however, now banding is partially resolved with texture 1 being top overlay, could be better!

Would need some more time and effort which I already get distracted too easily and have you seen the shiny keys!

Oh that's fine. I wasn't requesting anything. just talking. The stuff you have here is looking great so far.

I use textures.com. I can vouch for it. Great site for free textures.

This Block texture can be used with either the EBE or the terrain editor its for SLOT 1 path slot if used in any other slot it may cause banding it does blend nicely with the Mulch texture from early on in this thread

Hi All,
just a quick one, I have updated this post https://forum.game-guru.com/thread/217829 with details of the default palette for the terrain

might be useful if you keep swapping textures, let me know what you think, improvements, mistakes etc ..

These textures are for the EBE, but there is one that can be used with the Terrain, if you use it in slot 1 Blue_Tiles_D.png you can create a lovely swimming pool

Hi reliquia, I am still picking it up my self but yes I will create a video on how I did them, I am trying to do the whole process just in one paint package instead of the 4 currently i currently use, i have had mixed success with paint.net it seems to do the best job.

Once I have it nailed down I will create some variation maps and a video of how I did it, it may not be the right way but it seems to work for me

Hi MK83

the terrain textures go into .\GameGuru\Files\terrainbuild\texturesource (DDS files and PNG's)
for the EBE put the DDS files in .\GameGuru\Files\ebebank\texturesource

Hope this helps I am trying to learn some model making at the moment while it is so quiet around here, I will do more textures and variation how to in the next couple of days

Ok as promised 'Variation Maps', before I begin I am no programmer I just read and try things I have created a little app that will generate a variation map automagically it is very simple to use once you generate the map click on it and it will save in the app folder under\maps (please be aware it will overwrite any map that is already there so once you generate move it to a safe location.

I have created a little video to show the basics (the app must be installed on C:\ the structure is C:\VG\Maps)
this is beta I suppose and I must admit I have not tried the resulting PNG I was hoping you guys would try it out for me.

UPDATED version 02/08/2017 more details in this post https://forum.game-guru.com/thread/218117

This is very basic but can be built upon let me know what you think



for those interested I have used the Ken Perlin Class to create the noise https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perlin_noise
