I've just uploaded a 'demo' with some of my improved textures/models for people to look at.
People are free to use them in their FMs, bearing in mind that they are not completely 'finished' yet - I might tweak a few of them some more later, particularly based on any feedback I get.
Oh, and I'll probably be mapping a few of those Txt16 textures to use the standard Txt palette if I can manage that without loosing too much quality.
<s>Enhancement Pack Demo</s>
EDIT: URL removed. Download the demo instead (link found further down this post).
Eshaktaar: I look forward to seeing them. I was just thinking that some of the other levers (flat up/down, BigFloorLever, etc.) are very similar to the one you made, and could be built fairly quickly using the same texture.
R Soul: Those sound good. I'll have to take a look.

Thanks. So far I've got the labeled up/down switch, all the arcing levers, the normal button and the alarm button. What remains is the jump switch (started remaking it) and some of the button variations.
I decided to give the red lever handles a material with some self-illumination (at 25). This should make them about as visible as the old ones without looking odd.

NV, I had an error message from Winzip. :confused:
Was it a demo mission or just a group of objects?

That zip archive seems to be corrupt, I tried downloading it multiple times and couldn't open it. Can anyone else get it?
By the way, these upgrades have been great so far :thumb:. Maybe I'll have time to get to some myself.

The problem seems to be with wdplnks4.gif

Seems like this would cause them to be unnaturally visible in low light. Wouldn't it be more correct to boost the gamma on the actual texture?

25 might sound high, but it's barely noticeable. Nevertheless, I'll do some more checks to see if they are more visible than the common levers in various lighting.

Okay, I re-uploaded that archive. Hopefully it will work this time.
Lady Rowena: It was just the objects and textures.
You could test it by dropping it into your Thief\obj folder if you were so inclined.
Objects included in the demo (I didn't include them all as the filesize would have been to big):
Metal Bowl
Candles (including gold candle)
Wooden chair, old wooden chair
Table, old table
Iron goblet
Gold Goblet (one variety only.)
Wooden Pail
Healing Potion

Has anyone got the zip file to work?

The problem still seems to be with wdplnks4.gif
