that really helps thanks! u seem like a really smart guy...can u help me with this:www.renderosity.com/mod/forumpro/showthread.php

the verticle edges of the keyboard look bad. the lower one i photoshoped a layer (made it worse). But ya see the blockiness above the keys?  i think the answer may be in a shader, but not sure. i've tried to change the shaders for the keyboard but they only seem to effect the horizontal surfaces. where ever there is a sharp verticle plain, the rock shader looks awful. it would be nice to be able to match the terrain shader, which i thought i was doing by cutting and pasting the entire hierarchy of shaders from the terrain to the keyboard, then editing it just a tad. thanks!
