Hiya there. I took a little trip to a local mountain and got some great textures with my digital camera, and I found out how to add 2 textures to one object, untilizing a gradient(one texture at the top fading into another texture near the bottom) but I was wondering if there were a way for me to control where the gradient lie's on the object. I want to make it so that one fades to the other closer to the bottom. Also, I was wondering if there was a way to do it with slope. I want the steep areas to utilize a rocky texture and the flat areas to utilize grass or moss. Can anyone help me out here? Thanks! ~Mix~

Virtual Lands has a tutorial on combining textures. Maybe it will help you out. Arleen

There are a lot of things worse than dying, being afraid all the time would be one.

Also, take a look at the Whole Mountain texture under the Planes and Terrains presets. There are quite a few other terrains that use the blending mode you're after. If you need to make those captured textures into tiling textures, check out Infinity Textures (http://www.infinitytextures.com). It's a very powerful texture creator, but also has a nice little extra called Textractor that will let you turn most photos into tiling textures. The textures work great with Bryce, Carrara, Truespace, etc. Jim
