BGE Tutorial: Texture Mapping

In this tutorial, we are going to work with the blender game engine to create a simple scene. Eventually, we will create rocks, trees, and water for our scene. In this episode, we are going to begin working on the terrain and texture painting.

The reason it doesn't look like crisis is that first, we didn't spend years making every asset look perfect. We are merely popping textures off of the internet and using them. Second, we spent roughly 30 minutes to get it working. I'm working on the tutorial where we create some of the assets, like trees and rocks, that will make it look better.

La razón de que la gráfica no se parece a la engine crisis es que en primer lugar, es que no pasamos años haciendo cada cosa activo se vea perfecto. Sólo estamos haciendo uso de texturas  de la Internet y  uso de ellos. En segundo lugar, pasamos solo 30 minutos para conseguir que funcione y ese es el error. Estoy trabajando en un tutorial donde la programación y el uso de shades es la clave para crear  activos de gran calidad gráfica, como los árboles y las rocas, que hará que se vea mejor. Crisis al igual que otro engine comercial hace todo el trabajo fácil sin tener que programar nada, en pocas palabras es para gente Noob por que los desarrolladores de juegos siempre crearán sus propios scripts y esa es la clave de un juego original. Saludos.

If google translator is working properly here, it doesn't look good because it is missing trees and grass? Yeah, we haven't made trees or grass yet. That is for next week, along with rocks and water. This tutorial was to create the ground itself and do some texture painting.

I like your tutorials a lot. You did a great job! Unfortunately I can't figure out how to use the dirt mask correctly. When I set up the mask just like you do (24 min) and tab in to the texture paint mode blender switch to the grass texture on the UV Editor. When I change this to the DirtMask I can paint in the 3D view but for each dot I get a pattern of dots on the gras. Maybe you can figure out what I'm doing wrong? I'm using blender version 2.73.

Yes, but that wouldn't make for a very good tutorial. I'm just giving you techniques that you can take and apply to your own projects. Then some day maybe you and your friends can make it look that good. Although, while I love blender, I don't think I would recommend it for making a full size game. There is a bit too much overhead/padding, and python (I love it too) is a bit slow for running in games.

Can u help me???
Whenever i press play, my mesh shows backface culling (totally change the appearance of mesh ) so how to fix it??
U can see it in GLSL thing that is in right property tool
What ever i do (check or uncheck background culling )it appear differently so plz help me...

[Pluestyle]

i know :), but i love ur tuts, cause theyre awesome, and detailed :)and il ove blender too :D

[ETCWilde]

Ah yes. Okay thank you for the tip. I'll keep that in mind next time.

[ETCWilde]

Thank you. It isn't perfect though. There are still a few too many polygons in the ground mesh. Using a normal map would help with that though.

hi.thx for this great tutorial!.
i have a question..i made exactly the same things you made and it's all working great.when i play the game by pressing P i can see the grass, the dirt-paths.but when i open the file.blend with blender player i only see the grass.How can i fix this?thank you very much again!

[leatherandpoemscharmyman]

My Blender Auto-Closes when I have the Settings: Game Engine + GLSL + Textured on. The Moment I click on Textured the system closes. Anyone have a fix for this?

[dwebeasy]

Any chance for a Blend4Web tutorial? :)

[hell]

I export the game and the textures are GONE! Why and how to fix this?

[snakey]

It wont let me paint the dirt on, Blender keeps telling me Missing texture detected! 

[hubertherbert]

Hey what do im wrong if i paint the sand and its Sampling? I cant find an Option. Thanks

[Pluestyle]

oh, okay :D, sadly :), you should take more peeps in your project, than you can work 1 or 2 years on it, till it looks so good :)

[HristijanJovanovic]
