Title: Need Some Criticism
Post by: Soldier8Boy on 05 Apr 2003, 21:23:42: Alright, check out the ground textures, and please be blunt.

I like them, cept I think I need to have them darkened and a tad of brown added. What do y'all think?

I darkened it up and it looks stunning in the game. Does anyone have any good forest ground textures that give off impression of leaves fallen on ground? My texture artist isn't sure he can handle that but is giving it a try. I'd like to have a few options to choose from though.

Post by: Leone on 06 Apr 2003, 05:20:17: I know this might sound a bit obvious, but what you place on the texture will make a big difference. By this I mean, you say that these textures are for forests, to give the impression of leaves fallen on the ground, etc.

Take a couple of pics of the texture under a forest....that's where you are going to use it afterall?? It doesn't look right just being in the middle of a field....where would all the leaves come from. It's not just what the texture looks like, but the context of where it is. Make sense? :-\ :)

Post by: Soldier8Boy on 06 Apr 2003, 07:06:19: For the pics, copy and paste into browser.

Yes, I was planning to use a texture with fallen leaves, twigs, etc. for forests. I got it already on computer. I also got a pavement/gravel type texture for the city.

Title: Re:Need Some Criticism
Post by: Soldier8Boy on 07 Apr 2003, 02:58:26: I'm starting to agree.

One thing.. is there a way to change a texture path back to original? I aint doing select all as I got a shitload of fields out there and stuff.

Post by: Leone on 07 Apr 2003, 05:16:16: Not that I know of...maybe hexediting? But I really don't know. There's no REPLACE function for textures :'(

Post by: dmakatra on 07 Apr 2003, 18:12:34: Hey man... Have you got another pic from Arnhem? Not from the church. I wanna see some kinda street or sumthing. Is that OK? Thanks.

And yeah, looks quite cool actually, work on the grass though. Remove those white areas.

Post by: dmakatra on 09 Apr 2003, 16:01:45: Very nice but, look, I havenÃ‚'t been in Arnhem myself but it looks very compact and neat. Try to make it look a bit more nature. You see what I mean? ;)

Look at the buildings in Arnhem on this link (click on "Places of interest") http://www.holland.nl/go/arnhem/uk/
