hi guys,
i recently upgradged to DBP, and i am making a matrix editor. The reason i am posting in here, is because i have come to the texturing part and it has ground to a halt. I asked on the DBP forums and no one seems to knwo, mainly becasse everyone uses terrains now rather than matrices.

anyway i was wondering if you could help, ive got all the code sorted so far, i can texture tiles witht he click of a button etc... on thing is though, there is the checkerboard look :


how can i blend the tiles together making an attractive looking matrix texture, anyone know?

ok i now have a theory on how tod o this:
if i get the image at every tile and get the image of the 4 around it, then i blend these images into on, and then set the tile as that image. This should work. (i think)
is it possible to get the image at a tile?

Thanks, but u couldnt use this.
what i mean is its so the user can texture the matrix and then the program can blend the textures in, if i used that then i would have to make loads of images etc.. and then have individual buttons for it etc... unless there is a way do do this in the code, work out which tile is where and then which angle it should be at etc...

nope, cant blend textures on a matrix unless you premake the images like chris suggested.
