I don't know if anyone tried this before. The trick is to use a ring uv unwrapped as a square, with vertex paint on. portal_circle { translucent noshadows deform turbulent sinTable .001

Here are some links to places in Gdańsk (Poland) where some of the textures come from. There is more, but this is what I was able to find. I took pictures in 2007 / 2008 so before Google Street View w

I don't think the brick+wood textures are useful, unless the player never sees them close.

 

It is apparent that the bricks don't line up with the wood, and nobody would put bricks into such a wood frame, anyway, as they are way to heavy and would excert too much force on the wood frame.

I thought they looked a bit odd to, but I guess it is done.

 

 

 

However I imagine that it's purely cosmetic and the wood is actually outside the bricks. I don't think the wood is there to hold the bricks.

 

Umm, I type that and THEN look at the second pic...

The question is how deep the bricks go, or if they are only a very thin shell around the inner parts of the wall. The second picture for instance looks like if it is seen from the side like this:

Timber edges look better when they're not mathematically straight, and also gaps between timber and mortar adds to organic look in that reference picture.

Otherwise - nice textures. :)

Very good, these will come in handy for sections of my mill :)

Thanks :) I made another one:

This one's a collage of a plaster and few stone textures from TDM base.

 

Cool, although I associate these plaster more with modern buildings :)

 

While you are at it, could you please make brick textures that consist of:

 

* single rows of bricks without interleaving (1 x 16 bricks is enough)

* brick arches with different diameters

 

? These would be very useful for making arches. I can do some mockups if you want.

I'd like to see some really good cut stone textures.

 

Much like the red bricks Tels wants. Just a row of stones that tiles vertically. Would be really nice for making arches with patches and not having to try and align vertically to work around splits in bricks.

 

I'd also like to see stone base textures that match the bricks to use on matching pillars or bricks made with the clipper.

      So on a regular basis I try to start building something in Darkradiant but very quickly I loose interest and give up.
      I tend to
      create a room, position an ai in it (or first ai, then room, probably better) put a light in it Put some stuff in it test the room in tdm Now I had this new idea:
      Start of with a gigantic room. To skip the importance of sealing for the time being and to think broader than one room. Then just use ground without wall, just to visualise the structure of the level.  Then just use prefab walls and other elements (arches, etc.). Just building area's that aren't enclosed. I can always close them at a later point. Maybe this is all very logical from a mappers perspective, but tdm is the first game where I have done any kind of real mapping and I always stop at the start. It just takes too long to make something exciting.
      I want to build something at some point, because over time I accumulated lots of ideas.

      It would be nice to have a link to the forum thread of a mission in download section, rather than having to search for it manually, like on Thief Guild.

      Anaglypta , floral and damask wallpaper look great in older homes 
      It’s rare to see anyone using “shader not found” wallpaper in their house

      Terribly difficult juggling map designing with work, but I'm still alive and chipping away at something very special. I'm actually making a collaboration of sorts with a friend, I make the map itself and he acts as my "Chief Scope Creep Consultant" that checks in every so often to make sure this project isn't getting out of hand. It's a good system!
