Resized Terrain Texture.
Tips and Tricks
Most all Terrain Textures are going to be repeated and tiled. Because of
this, there is usually no need for a very large original file. When going
through CGTextures and accumulating textures, the smallest size is
usually sufficient.
Step 16:
Paint with the texture. With the terrain selected, choose the Paint
Texture tool in the Inspector panel. Click the newly imported cliff-side
texture (it will highlight with a blue bar beneath the swatch). Use a soft-
edged brush (one of the first two in the Brushes section) and paint areas
of the terrain that would be cliff side (
Figure 6.19
).

Tips and Tricks
Note that in order to paint with any Terrain Texture, that texture must first
be selected in the Terrain section of the Inspector. It's a powerful function
to be able to swap back and forth between multiple Terrain Textures.
