Softchecks is just a variant of the archetypical checkerboard texture. Two enhancements to Impulses original Checks texture allow you to specify rectangular shaped checks (instead of being forced to use a cubic lattice) and the ability to add a soft gradient between checks. This added transition is very useful in reducing the amount of jagginess in the line separating the checks. You can also make neat blurry effects by making this transition very wide.

REQUESTER TABS
- X,Y,Z Check Size:
The size of the checks.
- Transition Width:
The width of the gradient transition between the checks. A very small value (perhaps two percent of the check size) is useful in making the check boundaries less jagged. A wide value makes a neat blurry effect.
- Color RGB:
The colour added to the alternate checks.
- Reflect RGB:
The reflect value added to the alternate checks.
- Filter RGB:
The filter value added to the alternate checks.
- Fade Value:
This parameter allows you to control the strength at which the texture is applied to the object's surface; a value of 0.0 applies the texture at maximum strength, whereas a value of 1.0 makes the effects of texture invisible.
