thank you it works!

Would someone be so kind as to post an example of the blending TGA? I cant seem to figure out how to use it to blend the two textures.

Nevermind! Got it working! Thanks to everyone for this terrific shader! Definately makes terrain look 150% better. Will post some customary screenies soon

...a quickly hacked together terrain multitexturing editor i did a while ago...

-> terrain_editor.zip ~ 3mb

(shift+) cursor keys - fly around
rmb - rotate camera
(alt+) lmb - draw into the blue channel of the terrain macro map
s - save macro map
1 - display alpha channel
2 - display blue channel
3 - display multitextured terrain

because of a bug in pixel_to_vec i don't have the necessary control over the alpha channel so the tool is buggy and quite useless!

Wow ! The editor is too great !

Thanks , Vent , you are the man.

can anybody export a working multi texture terrain with geforce 3/4 compatible shader and all textures, with source ?
it would help me to understand how it works.. i cant get this thing working :-( all my tries failed..

ill give 5 stars for this!

Did you look at, or use, the terrain shader that is on the wiki pages? It is the same as what is talked about in this thread.

I have a link to some textures I used for the shader as well as a basic TGA that can be used for testing to see if things blend for you. In this thread:
web page
The files are still on the server.

You have ps.1.1 or higher support from your card??

What are the problems that you are facing?? Is it error codes?? No blending??

I have no basic terrain project built right now. Should you find that your card supports these things and you remain totally frustrated, make a post and I'll see what i can do.

thanks for your reply, i tried it like you explained it in the linked thread, but it still doesn't work. i have to paint in the red,blue,green,alpha channels of my last tga skin, to set the blending thing, right ?
do you have a terrain file with your skins and alpha ? this would really help, you'll get 5 stars!

Could someone please post the complete code snippet to use with 3 textures and 1 alpha map. Sorry to ask this but I can't figure it out from all the post above. Thanks for your help.
