What Is 3D Texturing?

  Texture Creation- Basic Techniques There are the following main methods of creating textures: rendering in a graphic 2d editor, for example, Photoshop; creating a texture in a 3D painting package such as Mudbox, ZBrush, Mari or 3D-Coat; construction based on procedural maps; Complex application of procedural techniques of various kinds, 2d and 3d format. For example, if you need to create a brick wall texture, then you need to perform the following sequence of actions: Creation of a plane, search and refinement of the texture of a brick wall. Creation of a seamless texture of a brick wall in 2D programs; a gloss map is created to give the texture of the brick wall a light, realistic sheen; surface roughness is obtained by creating a roughness map; the reflectivity of a brick wall is created using a reflection map. After going through the sequence of these stages, the modeled plane will turn into a realistic natural brick wall. Types of Texturing There are the following main types o
