Photoshop - Digital Anarchy - Texture v2.0 Plugin
Texture Anarchy is a suite of three Photoshop filters for creating textures and borders. Create a massive variety of
seamless, infinite textures that range from realistic and organic to bizarre and surreal.
three filters in the suite
The three plugins in this suite are Texture Explorer, Tiler Anarchy, and Edge Anarchy. Tiler Anachy creates
procedural textures that will seamlessly tile. Edge Anarchy wraps its textures into customized edges and borders.
This means that plain old math is used to generate, extend, and output an image. Users of Bryce or similar 3D
programs will be familiar with procedural textures, as they are used extensively to create the textures that make up
rocks, grass, sand, and other surfaces.
common, cool features
Each of the three Texture Anarchy filters provides a different output of seamless procedural textures. But all three
filters have similar functions and interface setup. Once you learn one, the others make more sense. Here is a list of
some common (and very cool) features in the interface, tools, and concepts.
the lighting editor
An important component of all the Texture Anarchy filters is the lights. With the Lighting Editor, you can add up to
four Lights, change the lighting direction, adjust highlights, set shadow colors, and more. Itâ™s a very
sophisticated, versatile lighting model.
You work in pseudo-3D space; the textures arenâ™t really 3D, but the lights create a bump map, which gives the
appearance of depth.
How to use Photoshop plugins
A plug-in is a software module, which is used with some other applications to enhance the capabilities of that
application. Adobe Photoshop
comes with pre-installed plug-ins. These plug-ins perform different type of effects on images.
To use plug-ins in Adobe Photoshop we need to install them in Adobe Photoshop's plug-in directory.When we install any
plug-in it will ask you to give the path (some automatically finds Adobe Photoshop). Select the Adobe Photoshop's
plug directory. When Adobe Photoshop will run it will automatically read these plug-ins. These plug-ins will be
included in the Filter menu.
To use any plug-in, open the image on which we want to use effects. Then go to menu bar and select Filter and then in
the end of this menu list select any of the installed plug-in. The plug-in window will open
