The definitive ultimate texture contribution thread

[thadiusofx3]

Listen up guys, we need all of the textures in the texture pack replaced with ones that look similar.

Here are some guidelines for textures:


1. Try to make the new texture the same resolution (size) as the old one. ex. if the old texture is 128x128 make the new one that size too
2. Try to get relatively close to the same design as the old texture with the new one. We want stuff to look similar but no exactly the same.
3. Some textures like bauul.png will need to be replaced later when we make the models for it. So skip those right now.
4. All submitted texture need to atleast be in PNG format. If you use photoshop or something similiar, also upload the RAW format image to make it easier on Karl to edit.
5. NO COPYRIGHTED OR LICENSED MATERIAL! Either find completely royalty/license free textures or make them yourself. We don't want any legal troubles.

Once you complete a texture, upload it to the ftp server in /3d modeling/textures/replacements/ folder and make a post with the new texture image in it, and also the name so I can change the list to reflect progress.


Red = Incomplete
Blue = Complete

[Karl G.]

I'd just like to add that if you use Photoshop or other image editing software to make the images before exporting to PNG, please upload the raw source images, too. For example, the grass textures are all linked together (grass alone, over dirt, etc.) and it would be much easier to edit if they're available in a layer-based format.

Also: please note that many of the images are actually four different images composed into a single texture. When replacing them, please consider each quadrant to be a separate image and create the replacement accordingly (no overlaps between quadrants)

[thadiusofx3]

a few textures: http://poorserver.no-ip.org/projectvolu ... lacements/

more coming soon

[Karl G.]

I've got a BUNCH of good replacements

Also, it might be good to add to your post a "no copyrighted or licensed work" I.E. everything must be FREE for commercial use (no license or royalties whatsoever)

edit: also, if you make the textures higher-resolution that's good too. Every texture can be up to 512x512

[thadiusofx3]

all of mine are either non copyrighted or I made them myself

I could make them all 512x512, I just thought 256x256 would be a good median between quality and size

[Karl G.]

we can always offer separate downloads

Thadius.. those skins look awesome..

[Karl G.]

Here are a few more:

[thadiusofx3]

Theres just one problem with exactly replacing the originals - The ones that are 4 tiles in one are really really hard to work with in blender.
They really need to be separated and made into their own textures.

[Karl G.]

ah, gotcha--we can just split 'em up

[thadiusofx3]

cool thx

[Necromadon]

I'm in love with your overlapping skull texture. I'm gonna put it in Xen and see how it looks.

[Necromadon]

eh, cuz of resizing it doesn't work well in xen but I like it.

[thadiusofx3]

uploaded some more

[thadiusofx3]

new address and gallery for the textures directory

if you upload an image to it, it will automatically display it on the page

http://www.projectvolucris.com/files/3d ... lacements/

[thadiusofx3]

changed the page size to 3x2, changed image preview size to 256x256 so images aren't distorted

[a_link_to_the_past]

I enjoy looking at those skins... the purple in photo 13 might be a little harsh... thats just my opinion, and in photo 7 (the tree skin) I don't know how I am feeling about that camo look..

[thadiusofx3]

It shouldn't look camo-ish ingame.

for the purple one, I have the stock gray one without the purple that I can upload and you can mess with it to see what you can come up with if you want to

[thadiusofx3]

uploaded

[a_link_to_the_past]

neato... I will see what I can do

[a_link_to_the_past]

Perhaps this might be too dark.. but this is a quick lil thing I did to it
