I'm a poet and I know (humbly) it, but all my poor tries of poetry are
in french.

... was remembering an "old" saying that goes something like:
You're a poet and don't even know it, cause your feet show it. They're
longfellows.

It is the fortuity, some strange encounter. Maybe am I a poet, maybe you

I think I have the solution! Make the floor a two-triangle mesh. Use the mesh
camera to bake an sslt texture for the ground!
I've been playing around with the mesh camera for my tcrtc entry. It's the best
thing since sliced bread!

Coincidently, this pun is /exactly/ what came across my mind when I read
the title :-P

Simple procedure to follow for /all/ sslt imagery:
(1) Figure out how large your scene objects are supposed to be in real
life. Set the scale (mm_per_unit) accordingly.
(2) Do /not/ mess with the scale or the size of your objects from now on.
(3) Tamper with the materials (especially the translucency) until they
look realistic.
