Tiled Sprites

[ivomarel]

As I was (like many others) looking for a solution to create sliced tiled sprites, I noticed that tiled sprites don't repeat the texture but actually repeat the geometry. I wouldn't mind digging into this, but could you tell me why you don't just use a tiled texture and have 2 polys instead of nTile*nTile*2 polys?

Because you can't tile a sprite residing without an atlas any other way. You can tile textures that go from border to border, but sprites do not.
