@ Rick_D - thanks mate! @ sltrOlsson - thanks man, I hadn't realized some of those were pen. I'm kind of in a hurry, but I guess haste makes waste applies here. I'll get right on that, and sharpening the cracks a little bit too. Cheers! @ AlecMoody - thanks man! We are planning on just using realtime lighting along with… -
Re: Environment Showcase - virtual texturing plugin for Unity 3.x Pro
This VT system integrates seamlessly with Unity's own texturing system. You can still use regular texturing for non-virtualized channels, e.g. semi-opaque surfaces, self-illuminated, light maps, etc. At the moment, due to some streaming limitations in Unity, only Diffuse (rgb+gloss/alphaTest) and Normals are being… -

We will be releasing a free version with support for 32K x 32K virtual textures, for non-commercial purposes. Only one caveat: it requires Unity Pro. -

Very cool stuff, guys. I saw the Unity VT stuff before but wasn't sure how properly useful it would be. Especially as you don't get to stamp stuff on a-la idTech5 :P Do you guys just get to use diff/spec/normal/alpha? How do you cope with stuff that needs things like self-illumination or gloss values? -
Re: Environment Showcase - virtual texturing plugin for Unity 3.x Pro
so, it's been a while since the last update because we've been very busy finishing up this. All buildings are now modeled and textured and there are only a couple of props left to texture, so we are mostly done apart from final tweaks and last minute additions to the asset list. here is a small sneak peek at what it is… -
Re: Environment Showcase - virtual texturing plugin for Unity 3.x Pro
Started texturing one of those buildings to see how it all will work out in the end, and the results are being quite satisfactory. I'm using six 4096x4096 textures for these two walls in order to get as much unique/high res detail as I can. The graffiti at the bottom is just a place holder I used to see how it would look… -

Re: Environment Showcase - virtual texturing plugin for Unity 3.x Pro
This is looking pretty cool. When do you plan on having it running in engine with light mapping? Are you just going to bake the lighting down into the diffuse or will it get a second channel?
