Title: Fading floor into background of studio
Post by: DrewDesign on February 20, 2016, 10:45:38 AM
For the life of me I cannot figure out how to fade the concrete floor into the background. It is probably a pretty simple thing to do. If someone can explain this to me I would very much appreciate it. Thank you.

Please see attachment as example.

Use the radial gradient map found in textures on the opacity slot of your material - Use planar mapping, turn of repeat and sync then scale it to suit

Wow! What a simple but effective technique. I wish I'd know about this a while ago.
