MaPZone 2.6 Documentation

MaPZone2 is an authoring tool dedicated to procedural textures edition and management. It produces textures based on Allegorithmic's patented FXMaps technology, that can be later on rendered at runtime in any program using the ProFX2 library, saving a huge amount of disk space. It can also be used simply to export bitmap textures for generic uses.
