MightyTiles is a procedural plugin for creating realistic looking tile-based textures, like brick walls, tile floors, parquet, cobblestone pavements, and much more. These tiles are created from photos of single bricks, cobblestones, etc. Just select a set of tiles and MightyTiles creates a high resolution texture for you. During render time MightyTiles sticks them together alternating each tile by a set of adjustable random parameters. This saves a lot of memory and lets you create huge high resolution textures made of millions of tiles.

Features include:
- Procedural texture generation based on real photos
- Memory usage is independent from the amount of tiles in the final texture
- Due to the usage of detailed tile bitmaps, large textures can be created
- Textures are created camera-dependent during render time, making mip-maps redundant
- TileDesigner lets you create your own set of tiles for every purpose
- The arrangement of tiles in the texture is controlled by pseudo random numbers
- Randomly modify the position, rotation, size and inclination of each tile
- Tile color can be changed tile by tile via pseudo random numbers
