Dino's random google search request in IRC showed me a methodology for procedurally tiling textures, thought it'd be interesting enough to share it here

well, true

Oh, cool. I've used this before, though I didn't know what it was called. I thought it just seemed an obvious solution. I didn't use it for texturing, though - I used it to procedurally generate a world map. I rotated pieces a lot, too. Looked pretty nice.

I'm also using this as one step in procedurally generating Sonic levels - and now I know what it's called.
