We've put together two new texture packs at www.leadwerks.com, a UT2004-style sci-fi pack, and a terrain texture pack. Both are available in high-res versions (1024x1024).

I finish what I start. If we get 10 people to put the money in for 3 months of subscription then I will deliver media each month as promised.
One of the benafits of being a subscriber over just purchasing packs is that you will have some say in what gets made. Right now i'm thinking of something along the lines of users nominating and then voting on what they would like to have created. Ultimately it would up to me or josh but input from the subscribers would play a big role in what get produced. There is more reading availible on the leadwerks forums.. leadwerks.com
People won't be able to sign up for 1 month at a time. Only 3 month subscriptions are available.

Quote:Your comment about texturemonk are perfectly right.
What I want to explain is that in a customer point of view, it is not really easy to pay for some future content, because your don't know if it will fit your need.
If the subscription give access to all existing content, most customers will only subscribe one month, grab the content and if their are happy, come back 6 or 12 month later for a new 1 month subscription.
By the way, I will visit your website regulary, your current work is very nice.

Yes, I realize everyone won't use everything. That's why we are letting users have all our existing media, plus everything that gets made. Even if you only used a few texture and model packs, a subscription would still be less expensive than buying them individually...and you get to request what you want us to make! Not only that, but having a regular income means that we can make a lot more media in the first place, so you have more of a selection.
Of course, we aren't going to make textures for a "Japanese air-hockey Care Bears" game, but if you have a theme you want, that is reusable for other people, we can do it. When we made the latest sci-fi pack, I just sent Alec a bunch of textures from UT2004 and said "make something like this".

We're now beginning production for the month of May. Members can access a private forum on the Leadwerks site and request themed model and texture packs.

Posting reference matierials is great, but they should have been posted in their own thread rather than within Josh's.
