FaronStudio has released PixPlant, a texturing tool that now creates seamless 3D textures from common photos. New features include: create normal, displacement and specular maps, plus the ability to fine tune 3D textures with an interactive parallax mapped 3D preview. PixPlant is a texturing tool that creates seamless 3D textures from common photos. Starting from a photo, PixPlant creates a seamless texture and then generates high quality normal, displacement and specular maps which can be fine tuned in an interactive 3D preview.

Because it works from plain photos, PixPlant adds an unlimited choice of realistic textures for 3D projects: pick an interesting real world image, run PixPlant and get a perfect seamless 3D texture in a few clicks. Available in standalone and Photoshop plug-in versions, PixPlant reduces to almost zero the time and repetitive work of preparing tiling 3D textures and backgrounds. With PixPlant you can quickly turn photos into usable 3D textures, adding realism, variety and value to your projects.
