Texture Studio is all you need to produce professional quality textures for use in games and tiled backgrounds. Texture Studio includes a set of integrated tools, all extremely useful for creating high quality seamless textures. Texture Studio is so easy to use, a photograph can be converted to a smoothly tiling, seamless texture with a single click. Alternately, you can adjust settings to fine-tune the look of the results.
* Makes an image seamless with an single click, although every aspect can be fine-tuned
* Perspective correction can "extract" textures from a photo, even when the camera is at an angle from the texture.
* Contrast and sharpness adjustsments can transform a dull, blurry image to a crisp, colorful texture.
* Shadow correction removes contrasting shadows that cause noticeable patterns when seamless textures are tiled.
Revisions:
Version 1.14
The memory access violations that were occurring on some computers are now fixed, thanks to Troy Robinson (aka. "Pongo").
Version 1.13
Added the ability to load images from the commandline. This also allows files to be associated with Texture Studio, and for files to be dragged and dropped on to texture studio to load them. Also changed the image load function to CopyRect the pixels from the loaded image into a blank image, possibly fixing the reported memory access violations.
Version 1.12
Fixed a bug in the seamless texture algorithm where some "garbage" pixels would appear in some cases, in addition to improving the algorithm slightly.
Version 1.11:
I made Texture Studio more CPU efficient, so CPU power is efficiently shared with other applications currently running.
Version 1.10:
I significantly improved my perspective correction algorithm by eliminating the "blocky" look (with linear filtering added). I also slightly improved the Open and Save dialog by making them remember the last path used so loading and saving textures from other paths is not so tedious. A few misc. changes were made to the tutorial.
