Similar to what you can find in Minecraft, there should either be user created, or ROBLOX created texture packs to choose from.
I could see user created packs be either even worse, or use copyrighted content which would be a bad day for ROBLOX, so ROBLOX created ones would be better,
Why?
Because some people think the grass color is hideous, and same goes for some of the other materials. It could also lead to the creation of more types of materials.
I mean, come on ROBLOX you have more kinds of BLOCK MATERIALS than you do terrain.

Why not just make your own blocks with your own textures (using decals or solid modeling)? If your looking for random generation, it is still possible to script.

Because smooth terrain and blocks are totally different ways of creating terrain, it's no where near as easy to build smooth terrain with blocks as it is with the smooth terrain. Also, decals will appear fuzzy when viewed at an angle, and smooth terrain or roblox created textures are exempt from that. |

I could script it myself for 2.3k robux when my computer is fixed.

You could never achieve anything close to smooth terrain with blocks, for example the reflective realistic moving water.
Or the clear textures, since decals are always blurry when viewed at an angle. |

I've been scripting since 2012. Trust me, I can handle it.

When did scripting get brought up? Do you not see the limitations of ROBLOX?
There is no possible way to get realistic reflections like smooth terrain water and clear textures on a block. |

Its called an union generator. I could script it in aprox. 150 hours total.

why the hell would we need texture packs for terrain that are supposed to be realistic? Keep in mind smooth terrain is relatively new.

For the last time, you cannot achieve realistic reflections on blocks like you can with smooth terrain water, and you cannot put decals on blocks without them looking blurry when viewed at an angle.
I don't care if you can make the shape out of unions and scripts, you'll never get it to look as good. Therefor, that's why "Texture Packs" would be a great idea for smooth terrain. |

ROBLOX created texture packs for smooth terrain would give people options on how they want their smooth terrain to look.
It would still look realistic, but maybe the grass wouldn't be a dingy green in one texture pack as it is now.
And maybe the stone color and texture would be darker and have more depth in it in one than another. |

I never said they were?
I said the water in smooth terrain cannot be replicated due to the realistic reflections.
And I also said that you cannot just put decals on a block and expect it to look as good as a ROBLOX created texture to due off-viewing angles making the decal super blurry. |

I agree with this suggestion, but to others who are not getting the idea:
I'm guessing he wants to be able to choose from different looks of terrain. He may not want the stone, ice, or grass, etc. that ROBLOX gives for smooth terrain, but maybe something that looks more bright, more dull, more unrealistic, more like his old house in TeeTee village, etc.. If the colors or textures of the standard smooth terrain doesn't satisfy him because he wants something that fits the theme of his game, he could just change the textures without having to sacrifice the smooth qualities of smooth terrain. |

Because this isn't Minecraft. |

If only people knew that ROBLOX isn't as limited as people think it is.
You've only seen a small portion of the possibilities.

Roblox is pretty limited, and other games have features Roblox needed by now. I'm pretty sure OP meant reflections that render everything everywhere. |
