Particles, emission by images 2004-04-08 - By Raffaele "ThE_JacO" Fragapane
Back
The semi-modular nature of XSI means that, to re-use assets, projections
sources and images are separated so that they can be combined in a lot of
final results without redundancy of the originating data.
This also means that simply linking an image would leave XSI in a WTF state
about what projection it should be associated with and viceversa.
To remedy to this (it's a rare occurance that you want a projection and a
picture to be bound to each other, so you don't want it to be the norm)
there's texture maps.
I'm sure we could all righteously ramble about hundreds of things about XSI,
but this is something they got right I feel :)

Dear soft,
rant on\
why oh why can't we just use normal image texturing to do this sort of
thing?
