hi-res textures (1024x1024)

Post by pmgolf »

Where would someone look to find some hi-res textures? I have yet to find very many of them? Does everyone make their own? How?

Thanks,
Pete

Here's a great place to start Pete. Lez was kind enough to share his textures for these 8 courses.

Hi Pete

You can make your own if you are somewhat knowledgeable with using Photo Shop. The most difficult part is blending the outer edges together to where they will tile together and not show the seams. If you use Photo Shop, I can point you to the process and describe what has to be accomplished, if you are interested. A 1024x1024 hi-res texture will make up a 16' x 16' patch of earth on an APCD plot, so it has to tile every 16 feet. The hardest part for me, and most others, is to create a texture that doesn't show the tiling in the game.
