Generic Texture


BEAR

Recommended Posts

Hi, I was wondering if, when first starting a map, any of you use a generic texture to texture everything, only applying different textures once the map is coming a long?

 

I've seen people do that in some tutorials, some using a uniform gray texture and some using a grid star-trek holodeck looking texture.

 

If so, can anyone direct me to such a texture? I'm using the vanilla d3 editor atm (well, ROE really) and the textures I have to work with kind of distracts me from what I want to work on.

 

Thanks!

As far as I remember, the "grid-like" texture I used was some tile texture from vanilla doom's "bathroom" set.

 

Hope this helps,

There is no custom texture as such but I found the best texture for this purpose is...

 

textures/darkmod/stone/flat/smooth/ceramic_tile_tan03

 

which gives a great grid pattern in-game almost like 3D graph paper. See..

Though I don't know if you have access to that texture? I use it now and again for smaller projects too like recently I am in the middle of creating some stairs for a grand hall.

Thanks guys, those are all good suggestions. Those quake3 textures are great and I might make them into workable textures if I get the time, otherwise I'll just find and use a reasonable doom3 texture.

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
