Texturing plane per vertex.

Electricity · Post by **Electricity** » Thu Nov 13, 2008 6:54 pm

Anybody know Petroglyph's Map Editor?

If so you might have noticed that when you texture the terrain it looks like you apply a texture to a vertex of the plane and then they automatically blend.

Im trying to make the same effect but cant find any texture vertex functions...

(bump)

I had to bump this topic to keep it from flowing over into page 2-3-6-98...

It wasn't even halfway down the first page

You might get help if you explain your problem better... Shows some screenshots of what you're trying to achieve, it sounds like terrain splatting possibly. If you search the forum for that you may find some solutions.

Well what i really want is to be able to texture a plane/terrain node with multiple textures which will blend into each other

And did the terrain splatting search help?

Nope... I only found topics about terrain... No splatting...

When i search for 'terrain AND splatting' the 7th, 8th and 9th results look fairly promising....

Ok ill try writing it like you "terrain AND splatting"

Edit: Ok got no usefull results...
Irrlicht supports only 4 textures per mesh?
Anywayz i saw that i need a shader to have multiple textures..?

What's wrong with the 7th, 8th and 9th ones? they do terrain splatting surely...

JP, you are turning into one cruel SOB.

In other words, I am so into you right now.

@JP: They werent any help for me... Only 4 textures and the splatting was done with alpha masks.

I'm pretty sure i've seen terrain splatting in irrlicht with more than 4 textures so you're probably not looking hard enough, try looking further down the page and into the next pages and so on!

Rogerborg... wanna cyber?

I am so hard right now.

EDIT: I would say something useful like "Blend between 4 textures based on the current vertex color e.g. tex1 * r, tex2 * g, etc, and that you can extend Irrlicht pretty easily to support 8 textures if you search the forum.", but that would ruin the moment.

Too far blindside.. that's just hugely inappropriate!

@Blindside: What about an unlimited amount of textures?
