Texture Image

I have made a terrain based on my imagination so i am using the Texture image, so when i look at it in game (Arma3) it does not look to great from distance / height - as opposed to a real Sat image.

Is there any way / plugins to get a better quality Texture image or is it back to Photoshop ?

Thanks

Hi psvialli,

I'm very sorry for my slow reply. Could you perhaps post a screenshot of the map in Arma showing the unsatisfactory appearance at distance?

Without having seen the map it's a bit hard to guess how to make it look better, but often the cause of bland output textures is that the heightmap is too smooth. Adding some roughness, such as small ridges and valleys, will make the terrain look better at a distance.

Best regards,
Aaron.
