Texture Blending On Models

[gamecreator]

I am interested in blending two textures on a triangle in my modeling application (a lot like how the terrain editor does it) and then importing that into Leadwerks. Is this possible and if so, how is this best done? I assume this has something to do with using two or three texture slots and/or a shader but I'm not sure if it's possible.

Well it depends on how you are planning to do the blending inside your modeling app - by a fixed amount or via a mask/map. Based on the pics you posted, I would assume you will have some sort of mask/map that determines what texture is visible? If so, its a fairly straight forward shader where you draw the two textures based on the color of the mask texture.

 

EDIT -- if doing a mask map, here is a quick version of a model shader that blends two diffuse textures based on the mask map's alpha: blend.zip

I think this may be exactly what I'm looking for! I'm going to try it tonight. Thank you macklebee!

 

I haven't done it in a while but the link I posted in the original post shows Max's blend material (half way down under Interface section), which I intend to use to visualize this in the software before exporting.

This is also exactly what I'm after. Thanks!
