Improve texture manipulation in mapster ?

[Muelsa]

I think it would be a good idea to add the possibility to turn the textures (floors wall and celling) in mapster in all directions, repositioning, resizing, rotating, and distorting ?

somethings like this :

I don't know how is difficult to add this stuff in mapster, but it could be very useful

Wouldn't that require rewriting a whole part of the engine? I think that would be too much work to make the textures distortable etc., however, rotating textures (like 45 degrees etc.) would be neat

yes, as a first step, it might even be sufficient

and add the same resizing possibility for floor and ceilling like the wall

Isn't that a very basic building technique?

You can easily rotate floor/ceiling textures, just make a 45 degree (or whatever you need) corner in a sector, aim at the corner in 3d mode and press ALT+F, then enable floor relativity by pressin R in 3d mode.

What I'd personally want to see is changing the angle of wall textures, that would be useful though.
