Definitions

texture <tilenum> { ... }

Defines a Hightile texture to replace an ART-file tile. <tilenum> may be a number, or a defined label.

The brace-enclosed block may contain these instructions:

pal <palnum> { ... }

Replaces the palette <palnum>. If a palette has no pal definition palette 0 definition will be used. Tint will not be used on palettes defined with this instruction.

The brace-enclosed block may contain these instructions:

file <filename>

name <filename>

Defines which texture file to use. File may be any PNG, JPG, TGA, BMP, GIF or PCX file. This instruction must be supplied.

alphacut <cutoff-value>

Sets the level of transparency at which a pixel in the texture is considered opaque. Pixels with more transparency than the cut-off are not drawn to the screen when rendered. The default setting is 0.32, which is just below the 33% transparency level of Build. If your texture has areas that are more transparent than the default, you can lower the cut-off level to preserve that detail.

nocompress

Prevents the texture from being compressed using S3TC if texture compression is enabled.

nodownsize

Prevents the texture from being downsized.

xscale <value>

yscale <value>

Sets the scale of the hightile texture in relation to the original texture. A <value> of 1.0 makes it the same size, higher makes it cover more then the original tile and smaller makes it cover a smaller area. xscale (aka scale, detailscale, intensity) sets the horizontal scale and yscale sets the vertical scale.

detail { ... }

Defines a detail texture for the texture. The brace-enclosed block may contain these instructions:

file <filename>

Specifies which detail texture file to use. File may be any PNG, JPG, TGA, BMP, GIF or PCX file. This instruction must be supplied.

scale <value>

<value> is a positive floating-point value that'll determine how much your detail map should repeat on your diffuse map (if you want your detail map to repeat five times, use a 1/5 scale : 0.2).

glow { ... }

Defines a glow map for the texture. The brace-enclosed block may contain these instructions:

file <filename>

Specifies which glow map file to use. This instruction must be supplied.

tint { ... }

Defines a Hightile texture tint to simulate palette effects normally used on ART-file tiles. The brace-enclosed block may contain these instructions:

pal <palnum>

The palette number the tint applies to.

red <value>

green <value>

blue <value>

r <value>

g <value>

b <value>

Specifies a color component value, in the range of 0 to 255. Unspecified components are assumed to be 255 and any out of range values are clamped to the maximum or minimum as appropriate.

flags <flags>

Specifies any special processing effects to use for the tint. The value of flags may be the sum of any of these values:

0 = no effects

1 = convert to greyscale

2 = invert colors
