[Texture] New brick texture

[Ludsky]

I like all texture, it's so good ! Thanks !

[fraang]

Good work, fraang. Think you could do some retexture work on the canyon? I've always found the painted desert beautiful http://pencilsharpener.org/travel/Roadt ... desert.jpg or http://d1vmp8zzttzftq.cloudfront.net/wp ... 0x1066.jpg. Doing a search for painted desert I actually stumbled on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfi49DErMKE

You mean the canyon track from the addons repo, right? Sure I will give it a shot.

Another texture, the acid_lake.png from the XR591 track:

Old texture and screenshot:

New texture and screenshot:

It's currently a JPG file, maybe we should convert to PNG?

Btw. if someone has a texture in mind which needs some love, let me know.

Thanks a lot, committed!

Yeah, that's the track I was referring to. It has a lot of potential and it's the only track I know of that features a really good downhill section. Great work on your next green texture for the alien planet. Maybe you could retexture the alien's eye from the picture you uploaded? Personally, the biggest things I'd like to see improved are the skyboxes (from certain levels) and karts.

Hi again.
I have a new texture for the alien in the acid lake:

Nice !

[antoine]

Look great. I can't wait to see more of your work.

[Funto]

We would get a better idea of how this is an improvement if you also post screenshots of the state before your modifications...
Otherwise it looks good as a whole, though I woud incease the greenish lighting around the lake, and maybe introduce some transparency.

[samuncle]

We however cannot use this animation. We already have what is needed to make animated water in-game, so instead the track should be re-exported to use the tools we already have

Now we can .

But it's still WIP ^^

[fraang]

@ Funto: The two screenshots are taken before and after the new texture for the alien in the acid lake was applied. Btw. I am only doing the textures at the moment.

Here is the comparison of the textue itself. Screenshots are in the post above.


Here are two screenshots of a new Tux model and his kart I am working on :




Feedback is welcome.

[Arthur]

jooost has already made a new Tux and kart which I think is likely to be featured in the main game. Just saying.

[Funto]

And in case this happens, I think it gives even another good reason to consider the icon that has been proposed in the mailing list...

[fraang]

Hi again,

any word from the devs about the acid lake monster texture? Do you think it is an improvement?

And another texture which I think needs some love: purplenebula_[bg|ft].jpg from the startrack:

Textures:
Old (512*512px)


New (1024*1024 px, If it is to large I can scale it down.)


Screenshots
Old


New




I hope you like it.

[Auria]

There is a new star track replacement in the works so not sure what the skybox will be like for the new track. That being said, purplenebula is also used for the "feature unlocked" scene, so it is still relevant to improve it

I think it's a good start, but a bit too dark. More stars could help perhaps?

These look really promising. I'm curious to see where it goes.

The model for Tux is shaping up nicely; STK may not be the only project interested in this. (Hint: opengameart upload at some point!)

Links/images? Or is it off-forum?

It's in the add-ons, called Alternative Tux.

[fraang]

I have added some more stars. Better?

[samuncle]

Wow very beautiful, I like it .

Maybe you can test it with my new track. Star track will be replaced by planetarium. Can I have all of your skybox please ? and the texture source (the xcf). I want to make a real skybox with correct distortion.

[samuncle]

WOW \o/ your texture is approved. Please send me the sources and all that I need to adapt for my dynamic skybox.

With my track (it's just a basic test)

[Totoplus62]

[fraang]

Sure! Where should I upload it?

I have a sourgeforge account: fraang
Just in case.

[samuncle]

I don't know. Maybe you can use a website like media share or something like this.

[charlie]

http://www.opengameart.org obviously! Come on guys!

[fraang]

I have uploaded my work :
