extrude pixels around uv seams?

Sa74n

heya.

i'm curious. i know there are ways to extrude pixels around uv chunks so that you dont get those ugly mipmapping artefacts

heres an example of the effect. peppi send me a photoshop filter but thats not really the effect you can see on the pic below. it blurs too much and thus isnt accurate enough.



anyone did that stuff too? does it need a 3dsmax plugin or is it a function hidden somewhere?

plz

theres an option for 'edge padding' in the render to texture dialog in max. bump that up how ever much you want it.

Remember: the rtt image that you see in the render window is NOT the same as the one that gets outputted to your 'save to' folder.

I made a Photoshop action that does this. It blurs the skirt but if you want you can just disable those blur steps. RTT does it too, but I don't like the streaky edges. Besides, a PS action allows me to do it after (or during) painting. Also this one adds the new edge to its own layer, so you can kill it if you don't like it. Just make sure have a non-antialiased selection of the empty areas, before you run the action.
