Well I'd say mipmaps are really a matter of personal preference rather than absolutely technical. I'm usually a sharpen 5/7/10 type of guy as it keeps my hand painted textures crisp at a distance. The effect will definitely be more pronounced the larger your scene is, grass looked basically completely different when I…

This is a project I finished last year. Modeled 100% in ZB. I used many ZB techniques on the project.

Players will be able to buy one of a limited number of chisels to improve their tapping strength. An iron chisel - 10 times more powerful than the default tap - costs 59 pence. The diamond…

Watch out anyone with similar inventions. Beware the broad sweeping patent.…
