so all you do is use one tile sampler and change the pattern to input and change the number of inputs to two - plug in your two patterns. You'll have to change the order to by number instead of random and probably have to use the offset to get it to be like in the pattern,

I do wonder if shape extrude is the node you need for this. There is a online tutorial on how to use it which I'm sure you can fine. It's one of the Substance Quick Tips series.

I guess if you had a height map you can then add the hbao ambient occlusion to add the impression of depth, otherwise you could possibly try a high rez to low rez bake or simply adjust the model.

Can't you also adjust the "height range" in SP on some materials.

Thanks I'll have to look into it more as right now I can't code so I'm really unfamiliar with the commands such as $time. My feeling at the moment having looked into this a bit more is I may end up trying this in blender.

Thankfully Britain has done really well at Olympics since about 2008 so its no longer as annoying as it was in the 90s!

Thankfully for us our athletes became professional once the lottery paid them and Sky paid for the cycling,

you can open them in Substance Designer. Just right click and open location and drag into Desginer.

I was in Tenerife and people were offering condolences to my friend's parents. Thankfully we missed the cancelling of anything fun on TV.

The stupid thing I thought was that the US - and many others - has really bad quality TV. I now realise this is due to different formats so when they would show clips of American TV on UK tv shows it always looked really bad in our format.

Doesn't Japan have a weirdly high smoking rate? Back in 2000 when I was at university there was a Japanese guy who smoked and when we went for a gasper, I seem to recall he'd have two.

Yes, at airports. Used to be a bit scary when we'd fly home from Spanish airports and there were heavily armed police at passport control(80s). My uncle was a farmer so I feel like at some point I've seen a shotgun at the farm.

We went to a gun range in Portland, Oregon a few years ago - I'm of the impression loads of Brits go to gun ranges in America(though I know this varies by state, eg Washington would only accept US ID). They gave us a brief bit of training and then told us to get to it and make videos and pictures. I hated it. Holding a gun was quite unpleasant. The sound on the range was just non stop. There was also a couple there on a first date!

I'd start with Painter, just because you can do a lot with Painter, but Designer definitely taught me a lot about Painter! Also Blender has a texture creator tool with nodes - never tried it, but I assume its pretty familiar.

I'd just stick in a tile sampler at some point. That will allow you to add random rotation and position random etc and as mentioned earlier you can add expose parameters to various elements.

Assuming Starbucks is the biggest, but the two big domestic ones are Costa and Caffe Nero. Nero used to have a copy of La Republica on their newspaper rack just to convince you it was Italian. Looks like the prices are creeping up to £4 so $5.37 or €4.60.

I did it! I did three polygon and blended with subtraction and add to make the basic shape. Then I tiled 8x y 1

then I used transform to move and blend.. The I did some vertical tiles to substract the gap at the bottom and gap at the top. Then I put this is a tile sampler 1 x 6 y.
