TEXTURE SET: PK02 - Source/TGA versions

[PhilipK]

Here is the texture set I was set to release today.

It is basically revamped versions of old NS textures I made a long time ago ((most) not used at all in NS anymore and I have clearance to release this).

I tried keeping a theme of mostly whiteish, blackish and yellow. There are also number and letter decals included.

I decided to release one HL2 Source version and one with just pure .TGAs for anyone to use as they want.

The Source set contains 98 materials.

Are uncompressed normal maps really worth the memory? There are some 5 mb VTFs here.

Very nice! Thanks man, this sorta things are rare nowadays.

thx guys.

About that I was very unsure about going that way with it. I may as well just compres it with DXT5 tbh. I think the loss will be minimal espcially since I dont really have anything critical in terms of beveling or perfect gradients in the normal. So that is a good point.

On the other hand tex memory is a bit less of a problem nowdays. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't give a shit about older PCs etc when building stuff. So yeah, I think it might be a good idea just reexporting those with DXT5 compression and it'd minimized the file size significantly.

Thanks man. Brought up a good point there.

awesome stuff phil

[Sentura]

thanks, these are awesome!

[PhilipK]

ty!

I reuploaded the source version now with compressed normals. The ingame difference was indeed minor. Wouldn't really matter much unless you've got something extremely clean, that also have a lot of subtle gradients in the normals.

Thanks btw the second pack is slight different to the first one. I would say the specularmap in the old one is tree times more intense as the new one. Thats kinda "ugly" if you want to use both packs together.

Phillip, I have an idea to create Quake 1 map with you textures. Can I convert your TGA's to Q1 palette? :>

Awesome as always Philip!
