1.1 Alpha Details texture not functioning correct or docs are wrong.

by James Brad Barnette · in Torque 3D Professional · 12/15/2009 (2:18 pm) · 1 replies

regarding terrain materials the Docs say:

"Detail Size: How often the detail map repeats per meter. "

If so then a value of 20 would mean that the detail map would repeat 20 times in one meter and a value of 1 would tile once per meter.

But when I try this I have found that a value of twenty seems to tile once about every 20 meters and that a value of 1 seems to tile very finely maybe once per meter.

I dont have a problem with either way but one needs to be picked and stuck with.

Good catch... its a bug in the docs. Originally it was as it described... repeat per meter... but we changed it to the size of the detail map.
