Hello,
I am currently dealing with a 2d mobile project, and as such, the art assets I received are 1024x768.
I am using 2dToolkit and I’m setting up the background, but since the background is 1024 pixels in at least one dimension, they won’t fit on a Material that is 1024x1024 (which is the maximum for non-retina displays on the iPhone, as I understand) when you take padding under consideration.
To fix this problem, I came up with the genius(?) idea to just split the large textures so they could live on separate materials, and then I would create two sprite GameObjects (basically just planes) and slide them right up next to each other. Problem is that it’s a pain in the butt to get them exactly perfectly aligned (Lots of zoom-zoom-drag-check-nope-drag-drag), and, even if it’s aligned in the Game view, when I push it out to a device, there is a very clear “seam” visible between the two objects!
Having to wait to push to a device (a 5+ minute process on my machine) is just too much to check for such a small but significant thing. There has to be a better way.
I haven’t touched the import settings since 2dToolkit is handling that, so I don’t want to mess it up too much. But is there any other way to deal with screenfilling textures? (And since this is a 2d app, the textures would be filling up the screen ALL THE TIME)
Thanks in advance!
