Glass tile

[glorybound]

I need to recreate this glass/glazed #9 tile. I have tried almost everything. but I'm not nailing it. Other than manually placing 100's of tiles, do you have any ideas? It needs to cover a large area. I might just render out white glazed tile and cut/past glass tiles in post. A large bitmap would be awesome!

Bercontile with multitexture. Does it in 2 seconds randomly over as large area as you want

I used the same thing to tile a round column with 5 different mosaics randomly
(it also autorotates your maps so nothing "repeats")

I tried multitexture, but the scale was so small; the glass didn't look correct. I'll look into the Bercontile part.

I had a look, and I do own crossmap and wall&tile, but it does exactly what multitexture is doing. I created a wall using the multifloor generator, and I am using a multitexture. Everything looks good, except for the random glass tiles.

use bercon tile
set it to stretcher
set your size of your tile (this looks like about 20mmX20mm or 25mm errrr about 1 inch by 1 inch?) sorry dont have calc handy and tired- its 03:14 AM here

ok set edge width and height (the grouting) to maybe 5mm
soften (none)
round radius 0
round corners unticked
color1 stick in multitexture. In multitexture select your 2 different tiles (the clear one and the opague one) if you have 2 or 3 variations of each it works even better
then in multitexture set it to bercontile

go one level up so you back in bercontile
enable tile mapping and set it to UV fit
set random rotate to 90
tick random flip x and y

stick on mapscaler on your object or UV with realworld scale
done

I will try it, thx

I am trying your method now. Do you drop the same map in a displacement modifier?

[Morne]

except the displacement version shouldnt have a multitexture on it, just the bercon tile
but for that angle and that far away you should be able to get away with a bump?

I personally would just use floor generator script to generate the tiles (can also add some minor tilt/rotation per tile too) and then use the material by element modifier to alternate between different materials on the tiles at random.
