    • Dreamwave Texture Depot


      I've received a good many complaints ever since I closed down the Saber Studios Texture Depot last year, so I'm back to announce the opening of a new page dedicated to the same purpose.

      (url="http://"http://dreamwave.evula.net/texture_depot.html")Dreamwave Texture Depot(/url)

      The problem is it's kinda, uhhh... empty right now. 😄 I need you guys to start submitting some textures to me via e-mail ( (url="http://"mailto:joseph.payne@tmgmedia.net")mailto:joseph.payne@tmgmedia.net(/url)joseph.payne@tmgmedia.net

    • I will be seding over about 12 textures once I get back to Uni. I will also be downloading that soft metal plating for personal use 😛

      As a note... All my textures are designed to be used as a set (by this I mean colour map, bump map, and sometimes an alpha channel mask, a glow mask and a specularity mask). You will need to put each set up together (in the once compressd file for people to be able to use the properly.

      Looking good,
      ewan

    • Actually no. I re-read my post and it wasnt clear...

      What I meant is that Im sending over about 12 different textures. Each consists of a colour (diffuse) map, and a bump map (sometimes I use an alpha channel mask, a glow mask - if certain parts of the texture glows - or a specularity map - if a part of the texture is to be shiney and part not - and these will be included as well). Each part of the texture will need to be used in conjunction with the others to get the correct effect. I will send each texture as a different compressed file to avoid confusion.

      Maybe I will finally get the texture depot at (url="http://"http://www.evula.org/ewan/")Ewan's Lair(/url) opened after this 😛

      Got plans for your own texture depot? Coolness. Let me know when it's open and I'll send you some of my own textures... you know, scratch my back and I'll scratch yours, for the community's sake. 😉

    • God, textures, how many do you want.

      I have a huge texture collection just sitting on my hard disk. Most of them are pretty simple (brushed metal, galvin gold, walkway steel, redwood, the like). It's at least a twenty megabyte file. I take it you wouldn't mind having this.

      I'm remodeling my website currently as well, it's none to impressive right now so I won't bother showing it. I'll try and post it on my site and let you download and post the contents in the coming month when I release my site.

      How many do I want? To infinity and beyond! 😄

      Hey, a texture is a texture... there's no telling what people out there might be looking for. I'd love to download that file as soon as it's available. Many thanks for the offered contribution.

      Just for the record I'm greatly impressed by what you have achieved using Infini-D. I'm still an amature, mostly becuase of my old 3D software (Strata SudioPro v1.75+). I have now mastered it completeley, no reflection maps, no particle systems, no inverse kinematics, no real spline meshes, not even any fill lights. I should be getting Lightwave 3D soon, I will be one happy dude, dude. Keep up the good work.

    • Skykyle (<-- you have been dubbed so by the great sparky 😉 ), you are an amazing resource around here, always organizing something. I'm glad you're back on the gallery too.

      Anyway, I'll be making and sending you some. My question is, do you want single texture maps, or sets (color, spec, bump, diffuse)? Also, maybe you could consider putting up a section of general grunge textures. Another thing, (wow, ideas are just pouring out of me today...) how about a photoshop section - actions, brushes, patterns, custom shapes- so there could be great grunge/weathering brushes available? That'd also be a great resource.

      All the credit for the skill I've gained with Infini-D goes to Weepul. If it weren't for his long, descriptive posts every time I posted at the Gallery, I'd still be stuck making squares with bevels. 😛 Squinky was also a big help in my early days.

      Yeah, you get Lightwave - I'd like to get my hands on it one of these days when I've got $$$ for it. I might be getting a good job doing 3D work (40$ an hour U.S.) in my city soon so I'd have some good cash to perhaps invest in a better computer / 3D program.

      Thanks for your compliments - you guys rock. 🆒

      sparky: Skykyle, eh? I'm cool with it.

      Hey, it's my job around here to get folks the resources they need. I enjoy doing it, so what the heck. Why not? 😉

      as for textures, send anything you've got as it is. Unlike what my previous desc. said, your textures can be for a specific 3D program if you like (I can sort the textures by program). Let them come as they are.

      Yes siree, I'll add a Photoshop section if you'll be the first to contribute. 😛 I've had a lot of folks asking me how to do Photoshop work lately anyway, so I might not have much choice.

    • Bump.

      I'm planning on a large update on the textures page later today, so if any of you have some extra textures you'd like to submit, get them to me as soon as you can. Thanks.

      Take your time. No hurry on my part.

      I just updated the (url="http://"http://dreamwave.evula.net/texture_depot.html")depot(/url). Much better site layout and easy navigation. I'll try to get more of the textures I've received online later today.

      Nah, she's lookin' good - no assistance needed this time. And I got the new index page to work properly with a new navigations bar (I think those js images were screwing it up somehow). I'll have it on the internet tonight.
