Texture Making Tutorial

by dsfsd · in General Discussion · 05/02/2004 (8:13 pm) · 7 replies

Ok, I was finally able to sit down for an hour and write up as best I could how I did this, I tried to convey the concepts behind it as well as this method can be applied to all kinds of textures, not just this particular one. I included a link to a tag along zip with all the files needed to recreate and the final versions in photoshop & jpg format.

I'm a horrible tech writer and a bad teacher, so I'll try to go back and revamp it somewhat over this week so make it easier to understand. :)

GOOD LUCK Heh. :)

Heh, thanks, if people can understand it, sweet. I had no plan I just started writing so it's not really as concise as I originally wanted, but I'm glad you guys can make use of it. :)

Edited for 3am typos

This tutorial looks great!
I will add it as a resource on the site... here!

Some minor HTML nitpicking: The formatting of the page is really screwed up at less than 1280 x 1024 res, the document is titled "Untiled Document"

I'll have to disagree with you Alex on your last point.
I'm running at 1024x768 and it doesn't look distorted at all.

Good job on the texture & tutorial Timothy!
