Sand in default condo is.. very interesting

while messing around, I noticed the sand in the condo is very unique compared to all of the other textures.

we’ll use this hula doll for scale.





compared to the sandy rock pile item…

compared to a rock in the condo

compared to a floor in the condo!



look at those grains!

so uh.
why is this?
you can only tell when REALLY zoomed in, here’s some zoomed out comparisons to all the photos i just took.



and as far as the lobby goes, it’s just regular old sand, not special sand like condo.
I don’t have resort, so im not sure if it’s the same there, or if there even is any sand. maybe underwater has some sand.

I’m not 100% sure, but I think they use two textures for their sand. One for the fine details (you can just about make out the gridding of the textures)


and then a transparent texture on top to add the waviness to the sand.

However it was done, great job devs. That’s some dope sand.
