Canon texture packs? - TTLG Forums

unless you've received private messages, I fear your question may have been answered. when you say you may offer up what's already been done, do you mean as additions to your enhancement pack, for players to use? that would be great, some impressive work in this thread.

It can't hurt to try and get more people involved. I've been too busy lately to work on textures, but I'd love to get back to it once I have the time and inspiration again.

Try as I might, I just can't seem to get a pillar image similar to the original, on the web. Anyone have any decent pillar pics?

Actually the r18 texture has been done and is the EP already. Getting ahead of myself there! A careful examination of what's been done and what has yet to be done shall be my brief from here on in. Apologies.

The Angel and Wing textures are from the CATACOMB family, they're based on headstone engravings that are quite common in New England, East Massachusetts. There is a book called From Slate to Marble (James Blachowicz) that might have actual source images, anyone have this or access to it? Graven Images: New England Stone Carving and it's Symbols (Allen Ludwig) is another tome that might yield results.
Anyway here are some similar images to give you an idea.

These are just comparison images.

I believe I made the R18 texture that is listed there. But dude, you found the actual source image! You should go ahead and remake it so it's more true to the original. I just pieced together a bunch of different statue parts until I had something resembling the original texture, and it's clearly off in some places.

Xorak, my pillars are a bit ropey. If you want to use the source image to udate your texture feel free.

Once I'm done the things I've got lined up here, maybe I'll do 30 or 40 textures just as a break from Dromeding for a month or two. I'll try and work my way through fam/Core and see what comes from that.

I think that for R18, you should get rid of the writing in the background. It's too distinctive.

LarryG on 11/4/2013 at 03:02

I agree. The writing should be photoshopped out.

<s>I've gathered together all the textures that I have so far, and put them into an archive.

You can get it here: (link removed)

Edit: Some of the material files are missing. Until I re-upload, you can fix this by getting the material files from (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=140187&p=2150405&viewfull=1#post2150405) here and manually adding them to the .crf.

To install, simply drop the .crf into your NewDark Thief install (no need to extract), open cam_mod.ini, and add the following line to the bottom:

Code:

mod_path EPTerrain

(Or add it to your existing mod_path, if you already have one.)

It hasn't really been tested at all.
Things to watch out for:

* Textures at the wrong scale, especially ones which are half the size they ought to be (this very likely.)
* Textures that don't look close enough to the texture which they replace

</s>

EDIT: I'm replacing this with a new archive that also contains the HD object textures. See below.
