blending textures? Created 19 years ago2005-02-25 07:02:19 UTC by rat808

i noticed that there is a texture that is blend grass/gravel1001 but i cant get it to blend them? how would i do that?

Create a displacement map with the second tab in the texture window.

Click the 'Create' button, choose 2 or 3. If it's a huge brush, go 4.

Click 'Paint Alpha'

Raise/Lower paints the first texture, Raise To paints the second. The brush size thing adjusts how much is painted, the slider adjusts how thick the 'paint' is

how do i make a displacement map? i just started hl2 mapping.

He just explained it but basically you make a block with grass texture or mud... etc

You highlight it, click apply textures tool, click the second tab on apply tetures box and then click create...

It will have Power 2 so choose a number like 3 and click ok / apply.

You now have a displacement block and it can be altered to have bumps e.g. terrain and to blend you click on the tool called paint alpha (not we are still on the texture apply box)

Then you should have a green circle on your cursor and you click where you want it to blend e.g. if you have grass leading onto a sandy beach left click in middle and it should blend, keep clicking until your satisfied.

Right click does opposite if you did'nt know!

Select the textures you want to displace and go to displacements and create a new one. Then paint alpha. It's just like using a prettier version of paint then.

Damnit! Beat me to it.

Plus i said it in chrerie order
