Building texture pack

by Berndt Garbotz · in Game Design and Creative Issues · 02/14/2005 (5:59 am) · 3 replies

Hi,

we are on our way to produce a fine texture pack with european buildings and city elements.

First pack will contain older buildings. It should be a mixture of tileable and non-tileable textures.

You should be able to construct different buildings with this pack. In general first floor ( shops, doors ) and the rest will be separated, so you can combine as needed.

Content could be
- front
- backyard
- shops
- roofs

it could look like this, which is just a first very raw test:

this one is more advanced:

Our goal is to make a pack, we would like to buy ourselves and did not find so far.

It would be nice if you could tell us, what you need in such a pack, what kind of city building, Elements ... or whatever could help to make a pack that you want.

Thank You

Berndt and Simon

Thats some really nice textures there. What size are they (in demo page)?
Looks pretty high.

Berndt - This pack would be extremely useful for the project I'm working on. We are building a european town and could use these to supplement the work we've done already. The most useful thing for us would be lots of different windows, doors, tiling walls (brick, plaster), tiling or non-tiling detail textures like pipes going up the buildings, wooden window sills and window frames, etc. Here's hoping this gets released!

Hi,

thank you,

@Nauris, we try to make the size for the raw files as high as possible ( after image processing maybe around 1600 *1200 ), the power of 2 sets for game apps should be between 1024 and 256 in lossless quality.

@Jeff, please send me a mail, I think I can help you with something, as the release will need some time.
