Arlington 2015

This is one of my best tracks so far. I used Alpha Splatting on this track to make it cooler, and I think it came out pretty good.

Because this is alpha splatting, I can't just resize a texture and make a material file. So, if you experience low FPS on this track, go into the Arlington2015.material and Arlington2015FS.material file, search for CBSdirt.png and in that section of the material file:

{

receive_shadows on

technique

{

// base pass

pass

{

lighting off

texture_unit

{

// we use the metal plates texture as the base, other textures are blended over it

texture CBSdirt.png

scale 0.07 0.13

}

}

// leaks pass

pass

{

lighting off

// blend with former pass

scene_blend alpha_blend

// only overwrite fragments with the same depth

depth_func equal

// alpha map for the leaks

texture_unit

{

texture Arlington2015Floor.png

// use alpha from this texture

alpha_op_ex source1 src_texture src_texture

// and colour from last pass

colour_op_ex source2 src_texture src_texture

}

// detail texture

texture_unit

{

texture leak.png

// the scale is set to 1:1 because we don't want this texture to be tiled

scale 1 1

// alpha blend colour with colour from last pass

colour_op_ex blend_diffuse_alpha src_texture src_current

}

}

// lighting pass

pass

{

ambient 1 1 1

diffuse 1.05 1.05 1.05

depth_func equal

scene_blend zero src_colour

}

}

}

Raise only the red bolded numbers but be sure to always keep the ratio the same (A 6 number gap between the numbers)

This will work for anywhere in the material file that you see CBSdirt.png or CBSdirt2.png.
