What's New?
Here I've created a new 3D grass which is accessed by /grass 1

Grass Texture Path: Sandbox Folder > Packages > Textures > (Replace grass_kurt2)

Authors Notes: This is still a WIP, I plan to update it more =]

[siimvuss]

no offence but i like the before more

[Chaze007]

i like it. but please dont do:

>>Grass Texture Path: Sandbox Folder > Packages > Textures > (Replace grass_kurt2)

use the autograss command instead or change / edit the cfg's files.

offtools.

of course, but this would be easier for replacing anyway, to add your own just name the grass I made and use autograss in the yourmap-art.cfg

I decided to tweak the alpha channel to more match the grass' colours, there seems to be a bug in the engine where the colours average out in adjacent pixels, causing all sorts of odd discolourations, mainly to what the alpha channel's is

so I present to you, a near identical images with the above issue fixed

grass with a dark to light green gradient (chaze described this as the summer meadow effect)

with a dark to light gradient in the transparent regions

grass with a constant colour for transparent regions

with a constant colour in the transparent regions



PS. if the screenshot adds a horizontal scroll bar, you should consider getting a new monitor

XD
It adds vertical to me

[Chaze007]

It doesn't look as shiny D=

[Hirato]

eihrul tells me this "blending" thing is due to mipmapping incorrectly sampling and multiplying the values, and he might do something called "pre multiplied alpha" which he claims would fix the issue.

so consider my versions only a temporary workaround
