granQ 293 Posted August 16, 2013 First I want to say, I will contribute as well, however got this idea while at work so thats why I will not post anything just yet. Anyway, we all do different satelite textures of course but we often have same need for nice looking ground textures. So was thinking, why we don't share.. concrete, mud, fields, jungle, snow.. share your files. Please put up: Example.jpg Download link (including picture, rvmat file) I will update this post to put in everything here, please also share if you got good advice on how to make the files. My best resource for ground textures is this: http://www.cgtextures.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

granQ 293 Posted August 17, 2013 Asphalt, "light grey". Think many should put a soft dark layer over the _co to make it feel more like new roads. http://granq.se/files/asphalt.zip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PepinKr 3 Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) Nice one, i'm sure i'll find a way to use it on my map. Edited my post with pictures of my textures. Edited August 17, 2013 by PepinKr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cifordayzserver 119 Posted September 4, 2013 M1lkm8n used textures from : http://www.cgtextures.com/ for SMD_Sahrani_A2 They look great and are free for use so long as you credit them and it's for non-commercial use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And to add to that, the high-res tiled textures are reserved for premium accounts only. But with photoshop it's quite easy to make tileable textures by yourself. Content aware fill helps quite a bit ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bushlurker 46 Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) I made a "nice grass" texture set recently after a discussion/request about making golf courses on the terrainmakers skype channel... Grass can be tricky to tile neatly, and even trickier to parallax successfully... This texture uses a "tufts" approach to both the parallax & mco texture components which worked quite well - for a change ;) With appropriate clutter, it should be quite suitable for any "tended grass" areas, such as lawns, parkland, golf course fairways, football pitches or any other general urban "nice grass" context, and - with a cluttercutter in place, it's "nice" enough to stand on it's own - with no clutter at all (see above) - in small areas, such as "golf course greens" which is what it was really for in the first place..... :) bush_nicegrass_01 textureset B Edited September 6, 2013 by Bushlurker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PepinKr 3 Posted September 7, 2013 (edited) Updated my first post with new textures, they all use the new nopx format for normals (finally got it working). Edit : How to make a _nopx PAA Maybe some people still don't know how to make a nopx .PAA so here it is (pretty simple) I use crazybump to make my normals, you only need to change one thing in your preferences : Save your normal as a TGA Open it in photoshop or GIMP and make sure Alpha channel is active. Save again. put nopx as a prefix Use Texview and Voila ! Edited September 7, 2013 by PepinKr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bushlurker 46 Posted September 7, 2013 (edited) CrazyBump is pretty good - and pretty expensive! A cheaper and pretty impressive alternative is PixPlant (which, despite the name, has nothing to do with plants)... Though you can achieve perfectly good results with the NVIDIA Normal map plugin for Photoshop, or Xnormal, which is pretty powerful, and also free.... *Remember - a "Displacement Map" is NOT simply a "Greyscale of your _CO"... For _MCO's - there's considerably more going on with them than it would first appear... _MCO's, and how to make 'em P.S. - If you don't actually have Photoshop... follow the Adobe link at the bottom of the MCO's page linked to above - register for free for an Adobe account, and then download your 100% free and legit Photoshop CS2... OK, it's a little old nowadays, but it's free, legit, and will easily do any task you're likely to require while terrainmaking... Grab it now, while Adobe are still feeling kind... ;) B Edited September 7, 2013 by Bushlurker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheapest PixPlant version on that site was over 100 USD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bushlurker 46 Posted September 8, 2013 Hmmm... You're absolutely correct Xendance! I just slapped in links in my previous post - going on my previous recollection of relative prices... The "student" license for CrazyBump in particular, is a new one to me - that's pretty good value if you can swing student status! B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I recall correctly, they didn't ask me to prove my student status at all, which was kinda odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
