Hi,
my problem was, that grass texture of large areas are not looking good. Problem: I can get a high detailed forground per high res map, but the background show the repeating pattern or looks to homogeneous. Yesterday I found a solution: I take two images from a wide grass area and create a top-down 180° image from it. Horizontal viewangle is standard digital camera wide angle. After some retouch work it's seamless endless.
I create a diffuse ground material with texture type "environment" and horizontal repeat 9. And here the result: detailed foreground, variation at the background and the grass look match at every viewangle. Important: it works for human eye view renderings only, not for bird views.
"
If somebody like, try to create own textures of other ground types and post it here please.
An other way to get environment textures could be to use high res panorama shots from flickr.com and create seamless endless texures for views in all directions.
Best regards,
Micha

PS: Do somebody know a resource for high res bird view textures of large areas like fields, grass, sand and stone areas?
