This writing in the sand was taken a bit outside the karka hive on Southsun Cove Island.
Maybe the karka have learned to write?

Normal Maps are image files used to simulate bumps and intricate detail on 3D objects. So the normal thing might be a joke that slipped through the pipeline. I don’t know what a cutout is though.

cutouts would probably refer to a shader of some sort. notice how the letters are using a different material shader than the surroundings.

theyre both likely mistakes, parts of the normal and cutout maps were accidentally mapped onto the final product.

thugged out since cubscouts
