How do i create a endless plane/Floor?

[leehenshall]

I want to create a floor in a scene that goes on forever so that you cant see the end of the plane. When ever i render my scene i have got to possition the camera so that you cannot see the end of the plane. can anyone help me?

impossible to make really infinite geometry.
make ground plane small enough to cover all areas where shadowcasting will occur and assign useBackground shader. Next find which works better:
A) make imagePlane and assign any suitable env texture. make imagePlane.depth value near farClipping value of camera.
create large enough sphere and apply incandescent shader with spherically projected texture e.g. ramp.

Ground plane will catch shadows, A or B will show infinite environment. Fake.

Yeah infinity cant be done because the renderer must put end to numerical precicion somewhere but the sphere will give thei illusion!

Thanks alot drBlacksnake it worked fine
