Very nice, thanks!

The tessellation has called me back from the land of the so called "Real life".

I want to know if these will work with the 125% studs I have...so will they?

They also have a custom bottom texture.

Only bricks that are individually modeled.

For the 6x plates, I'm not seeing the 6x24 tessellation on it, although for most of the 6x plates it does.

the bricks are individually modeled to have tesselation
some bricks dont because they dont have a .blb set for it

I don't really understand these sort of things, so pardon me for asking this.

What is brick tessellation? Does it improve performance or something?

It basically takes specific bricks and makes the studs on top pop out and bevels the sides so that the bricks now have 8 sides rather than 4

Here's a video demonstration of them

So wait, the 3d model is placed on top of bricks? Meaning it won't work unless someone makes a custom model?
If so I hope there's a way to change the custom model of the top, so we can also have 3d lego studs along with the 125% stud.

Tessellated bricks do not use textures and only perfectly cubic bricks have tessellation applied to them.
You can simulate the 12.5% stud by modifying the prefs.cs inside the zip file.

Code: [Select]

$brickTes::TopDepth = 0.125;
$brickTes::TopInset = 0.125;

Oh thanks!

But are Lego studs even possible? Then again I doubt they are possible unless you make some modifications.

The current method of tesselation takes 5 quads per stud to render the effect. Lego studs would take 11 quads per stud and with that many quads it can only be rendered on a brick with a top surface area of 22 studs or less.
