  2. Draw distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draw_distance

    The influence of different draw distances (Higher distances show more area.) In computer graphics, draw distance (render distance or view distance) is the maximum distance of objects in a three-dimensional scene that are drawn by the rendering engine.

  3. Whitewash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitewash

    Lime wash is pure slaked lime in water. It produces a unique surface glow due to the double refraction of calcite crystals. Limewash and whitewash both cure to become the same material. When whitewash or limewash is initially applied, it has very low opacity, which can lead novices to overthicken the paint. Drying increases opacity and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_fill

    For case #2, a path leading out of the area exists. Paint the pixel the painter is standing upon and move in the direction of the open path. For case #3, the two boundary pixels define a path which, if we painted the current pixel, may block us from ever getting back to the other side of the path.

  5. Lime render - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_Render

    Lime render is the first coat of lime "plaster or the like" [1] applied to the external surfaces of traditionally-built stone or brick buildings. It allows the building to 'breathe' – as lime is porous, it allows for the collection and evaporation of moisture .

  6. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    A texture map [5] [6] is an image applied (mapped) to the surface of a shape or polygon. [7] This may be a bitmap image or a procedural texture.They may be stored in common image file formats, referenced by 3D model formats or material definitions, and assembled into resource bundles.

  7. Silicate mineral paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicate_mineral_paint

    The binder is a combination of silica sol and water glass. The organic fraction is limited to 5 mass percent similar to dispersion silicate paint allowing for chemical setting and retaining of the silicate specific advantages. The sol silicate paint allows use on non-mineral plaster. [4] For these the bonding occurs chemically and physically.

  8. Level of detail (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_of_detail_(computer...

    With the advent of 3D games in the 1990s, a lot of video games simply did not render distant structures or objects. Only nearby objects would be rendered and more distant parts would gradually fade, essentially implementing distance fog. Video games using LOD rendering avoid this fog effect and can render larger areas.

  9. Roughcast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roughcast

    Roughcast or pebbledash is a coarse plaster surface used on outside walls that consists of lime and sometimes cement mixed with sand, small gravel and often pebbles or shells. [1] The materials are mixed into a slurry and are then thrown at the working surface with a trowel or scoop.
