Every now and then a user asks why the installer does not come with a voxel texture example.
The reason is simple: voxel textures are HUGE.
Here's an example. It's a CT scan of a tooth (molar). This 256 x 256 x 256 texture is 64 MB!!!
2 shows are included to demonstrate the voxel layer.
BluffTitler accepts voxel models stored in the DDS format. To load another voxel model, choose MEDIA > CHANGE TEXTURE...
We've tested CT scans of brains, hearts, lungs, guts,...and I learned that I have no talent to become a doctor. It made me very uncomfortable looking at those pictures 🥴🥶😳😬 So next to the file size, that's another reason not to include voxel examples. I have no fear for the dentist so this molar does not scare me, but I can imagine this could be different for others. Probably better to delete this article 🤔
