Beyond3D ETQW MegaTexture article

For those of you still interested in Megatexturing, here's an interview featuring two of our programmers and a bunch of nice screenshots from ETQW's Megatexturing system.
It covers a lot of the more technical benefits and issues of using Megatexturing. Quite an interesting read, I thought!

Very cool stuff! Its a little too technical for me since I don't know what it implies for the artists in terms of workflow. but I'm sure that'll all become clear very fast when one works on a project that uses the tech.

Hito, there were some vids released during the last QuakeCon that showed some of the texturing process, IIRC.

Thanks for the link MoP!
