Terrain Textures

[Spetsnaz]

Some of the terrains in the GeoControl galleries are simply breathtaking.
Is there anyone with some really detailed desert textures (rock, sand) who wouldnt mind sharing the wealth?

In the alternative, is there a program that will create realistic terrain textures based on height?

Thanks.

P.S. Is that part of GeoControl 2 and I just missed it?

Textures are part of GC2. You'll find them in the render panel.
But of course, a high detailed desert texture has to be created in the final render application.

Good to know. I've bought GeoControl 1 and my demo of GC2 just ran out. Is there a way to get into the beta perhaps? Or buy an early adopter version if I promise not to complain :mrgreen:

As we are making a game, our final render application is the Torque Game Engine Advanced. Textures are painted onto the surface with a brush.

I was hoping that perhaps the people in this forum might have some highly realistic desert textures they wouldnt mind sharing. Of course there are resources on the net for such things, but I've never seen anything that compares to the pictures in the GC and GC2 galleries.

Be patient, the new build will be online today.

The GC gallery images are rendered in different applications. Not all of them are able to export a texture map, and the result would not be the same in the game engine.
You need special textures.

Really really great work. Thank you for your dedication.
