Moss Textures Help

Onion

Hi,

I'm trying to recreate some rocks and logs, etc, with moss over the top, I'm using a multi-layered texture to create differences in the items, but it's all looking very flat. Was wondering if anyone had any good tips for moss and making it feel more... well, mossy really ! ?

Thanks

You could try an alpha + normal mapped mesh that overlays your prop. Can you post what you have so far?

It's a work thing, so I can't post those assets, but I'll see if I can put something similar together when I get home that showcases the problem.

And thanks for the suggestion also !

depends what your engine can do...
and how much graphic scard budget you have, but wouldnt a displacement or parallax map be what you are looking for?
or at least try using a normal map in your multi layer texture and mask off the wood?
