Few oddities in the Nautical folder

[Springheel]

I was uploading a bunch of new models and noticed that there are some really cool models in the Nautical folder that I would never would have expected to find there. I think pinkdot just put all the parts of his galleon into that folder, but some of the models, like the ship lantern, window models, and a very cool winch model, I would never think to look in the "Nautical" folder for. Any objections if I move them to more appropriate spots (window to windows folder, lantern to lights, etc)?

Yes, they would be better in the standard folder structure types. Don't think I've even seen the winch that I recall. Sounds like it would go in mechanical and yes, light nautical is better than nautical light.

 

It's likely the only map they would break is the galleon one.

Same thing with some of the textures used on that boat. I find them very usefull even though I'm using them in non-boat related activities.

Ok, I'll go ahead and move the models.

 

The texture issue is a separate thing...there are lots of fairly generic textures in the model folder that could also be used for brushes. That would be a nice organizational task for someone who is looking for something to do.

I dimly remember already posting about this and I even created one or two material shaders using model textures (for wood), but I didn't have the time to go through all of them.

There's two I'm not quite sure where to place:

 

cannon (mechanical or weapon?)

 

metal grating (mechanical? window?)

[Fidcal]

I would put cannon under weapon but wherever it goes the mapper might not think of it. This is why I want cross-referencing or bookmark links in mechanical and also decorative.

 

The grating I would put in mechanical with a link from windows and waterworks as a drain. Also in dungeon.

[Springheel]

I don't know, those cross-referenced links have the potential to create a huge mess. We'd quickly have more of them then we would actual models.
