hmmm, i preferred the first one you had, the contrast is too much here. try making the sky lighter also, because there would be glow from the city lights off the clouds, and it's as good as an excuse as any to make it lighter :p Yeah I know , so I c...  [Read More]

bear in mind that this traffic has to flow nicely and it has to flow with the skybox, i would say a few long lines of distant trafic moving over about 4 frames for each texture Hey , just to post a screen from in the game . The stars keep bugging me...  [Read More]

Ofcourse thats useable ! @GM : the size of the texture is 1024x4096 => so that makes 4 nice seperate peices of 1024x1024 :) . The only thing left to do is cut the big one up and make a matching UP-texture . About the trafic , I think we could...  [Read More]

i think grey with generally, like gun-metal or similiar, with cyan, yellow and orange for the lights on the buildings. you want to go for something realistic enough to be believeable but not too bland. quanon, might i suggest shading in the top areas...  [Read More]

That looks really cool. The Jedi Academy GUI confused me at first. I've not played the game and thought someone had modded that, as well. The texture looks really cool, though. Its a damn shame you can't get KOTOR to read the files. It seems a lot o...  [Read More]

Quanon: i notice you're making skybox textures but would it not be better to use stock photos of real night skies, or sunsets? after all, this is a non-commercial venture and i know a number if places where you could get that sort of thing. it would...  [Read More]

Hey , a mini-update on the skybox texture . Do mind it is still a very huge and long one-piece picture ( 512px x 4096px ), it will be seriously downsized for the game , but working this way gives great quality and a good looking texture. ( Like the...  [Read More]
