Can someone show me how to get a good Splatting effect? About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011.

Can someone show me how to get a good Splatting effect? // Roundtable 1  |   Order by default Post by Eagle // Oct 9, 2008, 6:09am Eagle Total Posts: 221 Can someone show me how to get a good Splatting effect in TS7? I have tried everthing I know and I'm out of idea. Is there anyone here that knows how to get this effect? Would you teach me how? Thanks!

I think that is what you're after :) Link to it: http://forums1.caligari.com/truespace/showthread.php?t=5233 Post by W!ZARD // Oct 9, 2008, 4:00pm W!ZARD Total Posts: 2603 There is the Splend DX shader made by Dele.

You can make your own 4 colour masks with it. It's not strictly Splatting does the job. Dele is Da MAN! Post by Délé // Oct 10, 2008, 2:10am Délé Total Posts: 1374 I just uploaded a new version of the Splend RGB shader. I learned how to write some HLSL so now you don't have to press a button to separate the maps. It will do that on the fly and is more efficient than the previous version. ;) http://forums1.caligari.com/truespace/showthread.php?t=5233 Vickie: The Splend RGB shader will work to blend textures in tS similar to splatting. It doesn't use chunks when blending so it's not quite splatting, but it's similar. It will allow tilable textures without tiling the alpha map. I currently don't know of a way to allow painting the alpha maps in the 3d space unfortunately. So that's something for the future I guess. Now that I'm figuring out some HLSL, I've got a few other ideas brewing too. ;)
