The wood floor textures might be implemented in future in the ./lua/lib.terrain.multitex.lua. So that it will be counted as one of the multitexes of Iris 2. That would be a sum of 95 ids. | The wood floor textures might be implemented in future in the ./lua/lib.terrain.multitex.lua. So that it will be counted as one of the multitexes of Iris 2.

We introduced a new system in order to make texturing floortiles easier and making the use of textures more understandable. Therefore we implemented the mdl_basefloortile.mesh which uses the tex_basefloortile.png. You can use them to see how it looks like. | We introduced a new system in order to make texturing floortiles easier and making the use of textures more understandable.

| - | This is a more complicated matter. Because in UO they don't accept ID which are higher than 0x4000 in Hexadecimal. Therefore just type in Google 0x71f4 - '''0x4000''' in order to get the ID you can use. In our case it would be 0x31F7. | + | This is a more complicated matter.

| - | The advantage is that there is no reason anymore to give every til an own model. The implementation is easier and everyone can work on the same texture style. This is more important for more complex textures and models like walls oder arcs. | + | The advantage is that there is no reason anymore to give every til an own model.

| + | If you want to test it on your own then just copy the texture in the ./data/custom/texture folder and just insert the additional line in ./lua/filter/filter.art. That's it. | ||
