Title: ground with tiled textures
Post by: mike2d on May 14, 2013, 05:30:41 pm

hi,

this quite a simple question and i think most of the game use a big plane as floor but they divide the texture onto it.

i'd like to know the best practices to do that.

is 2d toolkit of any help about that process ?

thanks,

Use a tilemap if you need variation to the tiles, and use a tiled sprite if you just need to repeat one texture.

Easiest is the tiled sprite.
1. Create > tk2d > Tiled Sprite.
2. Select your sprite
3. Increase dimensions to get it to tile.

Random note to add what you were saying - I, too, have been receiving Unikronsoftware emails in my spam folder in Gmail. I was wondering why I hadn't been getting beta release emails.
