Description

DISCLAIMERS

  1. This mod will cause a drastic increase in Vram usage. If you have tessellation turned on and too many bricks loaded, you or clients on your server might crash
  2. For changes to take effect, you must restart your server. Blame Badspot for restricting fxDtsBrickData.brickFile.

@Trinko That is as a result of an error in brick rendering in the game engine. Nothing I can do.

How come it doesn't put tessellation on plates/baseplates?

@Kniv Too much surface area, too many quads
