Re: Procedural Textures Gaming's Future

Even kkreiger, with its not-so-complex textures, took quite a bit of load time to render them all out. I do see the point though… -

Ahhh... one of the developers explained that they render on the GPU, then compress to DXT and pipe that into VRAM. So... faster than HDD>VRAM. Anyhow. Generating quality textures using only procedural functions can be difficult. You generally can't get specific shapes other than pure geometric ones (circles, lines,…
