About this asset#
Fine beige grit surrounds scattered light stones in this rocky ground texture. Its relatively quiet color variation makes the spacing and size of the stones easy to judge.
Where this material fits#
Try it on a dry footpath or a cleared patch beside a building. Compare stone size with shoes, steps or a path edge. Keep larger isolated rocks in geometry when they need to break the ground silhouette.
Included maps and resolutions#
- Base Color
- Normal — OpenGL
- Roughness
- Metallic
- Ambient Occlusion
- Height
The product listing specifies 4K, 2K and 1K PNG maps with seamless tiling.
Material setup#
Use the texture-resolution guide to compare the surface at the actual terrain viewing distance. The normal-map troubleshooting guide helps distinguish shading detail from relief that needs geometry. The listing includes a Metallic map; its presence does not make the wood or soil a metal.
Follow the ground repetition workflow to establish texture coverage, compare path and verge materials and inspect repeated landmarks from the final camera.
Compare related surfaces#
Choose Rocky Ground PBR Texture — Stone Fragments when larger fragments should dominate the terrain, or Soil and Dirt PBR Texture — Organic Debris when the surface needs more soil and fewer visible stones.
