- [Instructor] In a very similar manner
we can also change the texture of the ground.
Now, first I want to turn on my ground,
so I can just navigate to the Render tab
and over on my right-hand side
I have a number of ground options.
First I can click on Ground
which will activate or turn on the ground
and here you can see my ground consists
of just a DS logo.
This is actually the DISO Systems logo
and most likely you won't want that in your projects,
so we'll take a look at how to change that.
In addition, we also have some other ground features
such as grid, mirror and shadow
and we can turn those on or off as we please.
Now, in this case, maybe we'll turn off grid
and mirror and just leave the shadow.
So, now if I want to change the texture
or the logo on my ground,
first I'll just need to select the ground
and then change the properties.
Now, there's a slight change here
as if I just try to click on my ground
you might notice it's not actually selecting the ground,
it's selecting the background.
So, there's one additional step we'll have to run through
in grabbing the ground
and since the ground's just a collaborative actor,
I can just navigate over to my Collaboration tab
and the ground is held within the Environments dropdown.
You can just open that up
and find my ground.
Once selected on the ground,
now you can see my ground is highlighted
and now of course I can change
whatever properties I would like for this ground.
So, I'll just take a look at the ground texture
in this case and you'll see by default
we have the ground texture set to the DS
for that DISO Systems logo
but of course I can change this
just as I did with the actor textures
and browse to whichever texture file I'd like.
In this case I just have a simple ground texture
and I can say okay
and now you can see that that texture
has been applied to my ground.
There's a number of other properties here as well,
so of course I can scale up or down,
change the colors and so on
or if I'm just happy with the way it looks now,
I can hit escape to jump out of my ground
and maybe I want to jump back
to my Marketing Camera View
and update my existing marketing view.
