High res terrain textures

by Jeff Raab · in Torque Game Engine · 11/14/2004 (11:17 am) · 5 replies

Well, we were working on applying custom terrain textures, which are high resolution(i think 1024x ) but when we looked at it, the texture was very much enlarged on the terrain.

how big can the textures be when adding the textures to the terrain by default, and how can i change this if need-be?

For TGE terrain textures must be 256*256, and it isn't easy to change that. TSE is another story I've been told.

It's rather easy to change it for TGE, but you will suffer from performance issues. I stopped working on it after Ben said it would be fixed in TSE and that it wasn't trivial to fix the blender.

There are also other community members who have done this, and I think the blender too.

We had a thread about it ~7 months ago. Can't find it though :S

The current TSE terrain implementation supports arbitrary terrain texture sizes. The new implementation will also be scalable, too.

Are there any plans on modifying it for TGE or are you only doing it for TSE?
