That would be appreciated. Emilian already reminded me of the normalmap feature, so it'd be interesting to compare the two and see which one I prefer. I don't know if Emilian gave you the notion that these would be competing options or not, but the notion isn't correct. You're not

[Flightgear-devel] Grain texture for models - a demo

2013-06-25 Thread Renk Thorsten
Since the idea hasn't really caught with modelers yet, I've tried to get a more practical demo of the virtue of a grain texture and tried to put a grain effect on the Vinson flightdeck (I've always felt that the homogeneous grey color doesn't justice to the details of the model otherwise).

Interesting! Any way we can see this example live? I'd love to experiment with it in the 744's cockpit, but that'll have to wait till after next weeks exams... I'll be happy to let you have the files - but the Vinson can't go to GIT because it doesn't really work due to the uv-mapping,

Hi Thorsten I can also give you the extra lines for the Citation Bravo with hires stains That would be appreciated. Emilian already reminded me of the normalmap feature, so it'd be interesting to compare the two and see which one I prefer. But don't hurry; better not send it to me before
