A detail map is used on an environment model to create up-close high-frequency details. It is combined in the shader with a regular color texture, with a higher amount of UV tiling so it makes smaller pixels, and it fades out at a medium distance to the main texture to hide any tiling artifacts.

Detail Map

A detail map is used on an environment model to create up-close high-frequency details. It is combined in the shader with a regular color texture, with a higher amount of UV tiling so it makes smaller pixels, and it fades out at a medium distance to the main texture to hide any tiling artifacts.
