Yeah sure!
Thanks for making another one.
But ... honestly ... I'm not really fond of the Obama picture on it.
Could you find something else?

Edit: eggcarton i made for 4197.
Containing shameless self-promotion


@PimpUigi: Make it!

I thought the picture and that was ment to be an april fools joke...

[PimpUigi]

It'd be cool if someone could run with my idea.

I'd do it myself, but...yea, I suck at these things.
Did you see how bad I did that $100 bill, and edited shotgun skin???

[alandog]

great eggcarton chicken!

I like the Pimpuigi idea, after all duke was missing from earth at the time of duke3d... a nice double joke!

[moggimus]

The eggs look great, and I like the milk carton idea. Just might want to make it more clear it's referring to DNF, but I'm sure most of us Dukers would know.

[chicken]

The question is: may we just use that picture?

[chicken]

Here's some more stuff i made for these tiles.

Could anyone else supply some more labels? I posted the templates earlier in this thread.

For the missing babe, how about making her phone number 867-5309? You could say her name is Jenny as well, but that might ruin the already present joke.

The phonenumber's on the wall of the restrooms in E1L1, but what about Jenny?

why is the installer 50% larger then the zip file?

[Parkar]

The installer includes the music pack and Duke Plus.

Haven't played this one. Can you post a screenshot? (If you have one handy)

You are missing out.
It's awesome, it even has an "Unzip fly" button that lets you pee on stuff (like police men for example).
But my favorite has to be the petrol can that you can use to pour petrol on things (people for example) and then setlight to it.

[lycanox]

Never mind

[Tea Monster]

I've actually been working on some normal maps for textures that I did on the babeland pirate ship. I'll post them after I do some testing.

[FlackenWS]

Hey people, I finish the 4202 textures. Sorry for late, I was really busy. I hope post this texture in right thread.



Above you can see my new texture (512x512) and below the original Duke tex.

[alandog]

not bad, maybe add a little more metallic shine... welcome back

[FlackenWS]

Hey thanks!
I deconfigurated my desktop user color and... wow... what difference!
Maybe this new is better.



More contrast effects and a little saturation effect. ( I need stop configure my Video card control panel )

[alandog]

mmmh, the pipes have improved, but the colors should stay more close to the original... good work, however

[marked]

I love the looks of the flat metal bars. Very good 3D depth.

But the pipes should have a little less texture applied and they need a wider contrast between light and dark. Especially on the lower pipes. There is way too much white. Its kind of hard to explain.They just don't seem to have the shine of metal that they should. And the some of the shadows cast on the large pipes looks too wide. And I noticed the flat bars in back do not line up with the bars on the bottom. The front ones are close enough and look ok.

I attempted a quick re-make of just the bottom pipes. Its way harder than it looks. I'm not really sure it looks any better than Flackens version.

[FlackenWS]

That look good, Marked.
But remember, in original Duke tile 4202, the light come for center instead above texture.
I try use same shadow effect in your quick re-make and go look ( maybe ) like this.



This one below is one experiment in try detail pipes a little more.



@Marked: Hey, are you doing some textures for SW?

[NightFright]

The lower (experimental) one looks good IMO.

[marked]

I'll load them both in the game after work tonight and see which looks better to me.

And yes, I have submitted about 30 textures so far to SW. There are a whole lot more to go.

[FlackenWS]

Well, I go post the next texture.
The 4207 ( 256x512 ), used for ceiling in Shop n Bag, Birth episode ( E4L3 ).



I'll test the HRP updated for SW.

[marked]

I prefer the lower version also of Flakens 4202. I tried one last time making the pipes just for practice. We can use Flaken's version.The pic included in this post has 3 of the top pipes re-made and the bottom pipes are my "quick" re-make from before. There was a lot of cut and paste and some shadowing was left out. I was paying attention to only the pipe texture.

The ceiling tile texture looks good.

[FlackenWS]

Can you post the pipe texture only?
I can use it for replace my pipes and see what happens.

[marked]

These are the two pipes I was messing with

I just cut and pasted all or different parts of them with slight modifications to try and keep them from all looking the same. Good luck. You did most of the hard work so I would like to have your version used in the game.

[FlackenWS]

Cool pipes!
I just finish to do the 4177 tex. I need revise it before post it, and later I go use your pipes and add it in texture and see if looks better than my.

[FlackenWS]

Done.

[FlackenWS]

This is my try in replace my pipes to Marked pipes.

( minor fix )

[marked]

Imageshack is down so I'll have to try again after work tonight to view the texture. Looking at the small version compared to the original I see that the lighter glare needs to be added on the pipes at the two ends.

[Rider]

Ugh, recommendation to texture posters: Don't use imageshack!

It's really bogged down lately and it's a pain. Try using Imagebanana or one of the many other free image hosting sites!

[FlackenWS]

4207:


4177:


4202 ( basic ):


4202 ( Pipes detail or experimental ):


4202 ( Marked Pipes ):


I hope it helps.

[alandog]

good work, I like marked pipes... and good thing to use imagebanana, imageshack is a pain in the axxes now...

[NightFright]

It took me almost 15mins to get these three textures via imageshack... Even 56k would have been faster!

[Radar1013]

i personaly think that the marked pipes look awesome.
