How's life @ Spring RTS

btw forb I am not taking away any of the type maps, that is part of what the players like, not my place to take that away. However, that doesn't mean I cannot include an option for it buddy .

In which case, I love you! <3

Ive got some bad news. The texture attached by Ice in the previous file is not the original. It has already gone through mapconv, the compression artifacts are highly visible on it

[smoth]

that is fine. Make a new texture. Seriously, I don't think ice will mind.

B-b-but i love that texture

That's only partially true. The only place any artifacting is visible is on the sea floor. Smoth is enough of a PS expert to mitigate that really easily.

I (maybe) have some good news!
I did found a bryce install on my old pc, and it does have some files from deltasiege. I dunno if i have the highquality heightmap, have to check/start bryce. I will as soon as possible.

If the heightmap is somewhere... i probably can make new renders, with new materials.. and optionally, edit them in PS, for example a snow map.

In case this works.. what kinda texture map does the community want? snow the number1 favourite? Or dry/stone/desert? or alien? or moon? or? Just gimme the best idea, and i'll try to make it!

Actually, I love the old texture, it looks very awesome. Snow will be achieved through lighting anyway.

Any chance you could dig up the old texture? Uncompressed?

(i just saw a remake of DSD wich a kind of mirroring and 8 rocks thing... sweet).

haha thats me ! nice to see you here.

You dont really need the old textures, just regenerate the lower miplevels again. i dont think the quality gets much worser since they are compressed after all.

Don't comment on stuff your totally clueless about. Tiling compression is extremely apparent on dsd.

Who said anything about tiling compression? Don't comment on stuff you're totally clueless about?
