                     Io Base Orinda     This project turned out better than I thought it would, but not as good as I as I wished it had. All necessary files are included with the exception of some ships and the Prelude II Base which is a requirement. I wanted to create...

Well, to make a long story short, I was eating a hotdog while I was working on this skin, and some of the mustard fell and landed on my hard drive!!:rofl: Actually, it is another project I am working on, and I am just trying different textures out to see how they look. One vote for the "Mustard...

I thought this logo was pretty cool, so I placed it on the Prelude II Base. Hope you like it.    stevcast

 As per amansfield's request, the European Space Agency's Prelude II Base skin. More to come.   stevcast

Nasa skin for Prelude II base. Thanks Dansteph.

I tried increasing both values, but the meshes still disappear when zooming out. I even tried to increase size to 8000 but I still have the same problem. Does anyone know what the underlying cause is with this problem?

I am currently working on a new project base, and I notice that the meshes/textures that I am incorporating do not show up when zooming in until a few miles out, and they disappear at the same point when I zoom the camera away from the base. Are there any corrections for this problem? stevcast

I appreciate everyboby's help on this, as I am basically very new to computer graphics, texturing, etc. I am not familiar with the reference to a ramp and dithering, but you state that DXT1 with a 1-bit alpha channel might work well. I am going to try that approach and see what the results will...

I used DXTBmp, and I did save it as a DXT5. I'm going to do it over again, maybe I hit thre wrong button, but I was certain I saved it as DXT5. Did you try to feather it, and did it work? I'll try again and get back to you.:cheers: stevcast ---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ----------...

Sure!! Here is the start of my tile. There are more layers I need to add, but at the present time, if I can't get it to look right, there is no need in continuing with it. Let me know if you come up with anything...Thanks!! stevcast

I guess what I was trying to do is emphasize the fact that I've tried every possible solution I can think of to acheive an adequate feathering effect without having any success. After using paint.net feathering tool, I end up with a very small feathered edge (barely noticable), which does not...

I saved it in DXT5 form before converting to .dds. I've tried feathering the edges in DXT5 format, in .dds format, .png format, .bmp format, the only "mat" I haven't tried is floormat, but I am tempted. If anyone has any insight as to why this is happening, please advise. stevcast

When I was working on my Hellsgate addon, everything about textures etc. was all hit and miss. I basically learned as I went along, trying one thing after another until I achieved the desired effect or results. I have gone over all the tutorials I can find, but I can't find an answer to a...

Thanks Goth. I got the problem resolved. There was a conflict with the aero display in Windows 7. With terranim8or, it now runs in windows basic display, and it works fine. Thank you for your input.:thumbup: stevcast t

I recently purchased a new laptop with greater memory and capacity, and I am running Windows 7. The problem is that on my old laptop terranim8or worked perfectly, and now on my new computer instead of a blue work screen, I get a blank white screen. I have searched the internet for any...

Actually, I have gone through your walkthrough and found it very helpful! As I have stated before, I am far from being an "expert' in any way shape or form when it comes to computers and or addon development. I basically get an idea for an addon and keep at it until it either semi works or...

Thanks Orb, I'll give this a try!!!

I stand corrected. I meant to say power of two. I have tried every tile level from 1 to 9. I am going to get some sleep for now, and try it again in the morning. There has got to be something I am missing somewhere!!! Thanks for all of your help, and I will keep you updated here as to my...

Thanks orb. This will definitely give me something to work on! ---------- Post added at 10:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ---------- Well, I did the calculations with the formula, and I went back and did the same calculations wtih the surf tile calculator, and I came up with...

I placed the tile in the brighton beach lunar tiles, and it showed up just fine. Question.... Using the lat. and long. coordinates from the delta glider and trial base, what figures or formula do you use to determine the tile location on Io?
