I need help with CG fragment shaders. I have one big texture which holds all the tiles. I really don’t know where to start with this one.
Now when quad/sprite goes over certain size i would need to repeat texture as it was one single texture.

It describes retrieval methods and contains some useful cautionary info about filtering/mip-levels
At its simplest, imagine that you have two textures side-by-side in an atlas.
Instead of reading
tex2D(sampler,UV)for the first texture, you would do something liketex2D(sampler,float2(frac(2.0*UV.x),UV.y))
