    Well sir you best get on top of your game! lol jk

    I would be interested to see the style you would incoprate in your usual "sci-fi" themed textured if you were to do a HL2 set... seeing how the textures would have to be approached in a different way to complement the source engine.

    Much agreed Ferret. Though only on there for a short amount of time, it was very fun and very interesting. To bad it had to end like it did

    Crackerjack maps?

    EH?!

    I actually used normals for these textures.. and the tile uses a spec map. But as for the history and where bumps are going.. I have no idea. I used the nVidia plugin for the tile and working on modeling a normal for the last diffuse there.

    The rest of us map for engines which support bumpmaps and specular, so the engine does this for us

    Outside may be a bit to orange for my liking, as for the inside... maybe calm down on the brown pipes everywhere. Other than that is looking pretty good. BUT! 2 questions... is that evil monkey on the catwalk... and also whats up with cyberathlete amateur league?

    Well lately my life has been in a huge juggle... going this way but wait... look.. its going that way. When I went to UNI.. i went there of having the intention of getting tons of mapping work done and majoring in Game Design. But slowly as time progressed.. I did 0 mapping and was really questioning my major. I started to make some really close friends.. friends that I saw everyday and chilled with most of the day, I lost a lot of weight and grew my hair out... in highschool i never really had friends that were constantly there chillen... so i hung out with the computer and did mapping. But everything changed when my roomate told me he was the son of a very famous musician and that he wanted to start a band with my close friends and I.

    So this really got me thinking about my music and where i wanted to take it.. Im not sure... I think my plan will be to finish up some past priorities then just forget computers and move on with my life. But then again... i might complete change my mind later.... still plenty of decisions to be made. HARDTIMES.

    As for girls... things are going great, no girl friend but I have fun and I guess thats all that really matters.

    MINO: Good luck brother... tell me how it goes!! I hope to hear from you soon on MSN!
