I wrote another article, this one on combining maps to age image textures within Bryce.

See link for the render of the .br5 file that's included with the magazines CD.

I remember my bricks being like this........always wanted to be a builder so they got used a lot! LOL Great details which really make it look like the varnish has been warn off. Nice one AS :)


Smile, your dead a long time :)

Very well done AS I like the look. Issue #77, Ill be on the lookout for it.

So are you tell me that I have to buy the magazine to get the tutorial on how to combine textures like you have done here?

Erlik ( ) posted Sat, 18 February 2006 at 2:02 AM

Nice looking! That's mixing channels with alpha, right? In that case, Vile, there's a thread or two here in forum. There's a thread with the subject of "Alpha Channel of the material" where I posted some short pointers. It certainly isn't the whole tutorial like AS did, but it helps.

You can just read the basic run through of the technique in the mag at the book store, lol. But to get all the screenshots, the image maps, the detailed notes, lighting setup, LDRI and the actual Bryce scenefile, yeah, you'll have to buy the magazine. ;o) It's mixing textures and also having the base mesh color show through, with alphas and mat lab settings. Not all that difficult to do, I just enjoy playing around with texturing. AS

We have a large WHSmith in my home City, where I've always wondered how many magazines they 'actually' sell.

I'll be one of those who stand in a 'shoulder-to-shoulder' line facing the mag-rack, looking suspicious, and reading but not buying :-D

AgentSmith, that's an awesome looking mat, and if I like your tutorial, I'll be sure to tap the person standing next to me and say "Hey, I know the guy who wrote that!".

The base wood texture is a scan of a hand-cutting board I found in the kitchen. Tweaked of course, to be seamless and look dark. AS

AS, that board is for cutting meat, not hands. :^)

Nothing is sacred in this apartment, if I can't scan it, I'll use my digital camera. One way or another, its all gonna be stuffed into Bryce! AS
