I need a metal texture for the industrial part of my map! that´s very important! I need it for a boiler! Maybe with a bit rust?!

It would be very very nice if somebody of you could do one ore some different for me! Please! :)

the halflife.wad has a lot of textures that look like what you describe.

they´re looking like crap! ;)

I can do some textures (3 or 4)

check your pms.

Yeah NEVER EVER use the Half Life textures- they suck!

Take some pictures or something, possibly even get pictures off a website, modify them in Photoshop. I mostly use 256 x 256 textures.

i am new to this, so can you define 'suck'?

Resolution? Appropriateness to WWII and Europe? etc? Scale? Colors? Brightness? Contrast?

I really have no idea and I am just trying to start off on the right foot by reading the FAQs, tutorials and posting here...

thx KominAaa !

you got reply! ;)

HL textures are low res, many of the metal ones have neon blue/yellow paint, look nothing like anything from WW2.

Only really old/amateur DOD maps use HL textures.

Try looking on http://www.planethalflife.com/wadfather/index-new.htm for textures. Beware- theres lots of crap there.

For any kind of textures, put "seamless metal texture" in google, or something. Chances are you'll find a few that you might want to use. http://images.google.com/images?q=seamless+metal+texture&svnum=10&hl=en&lr=lang_en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&safe=off&start=20&sa=N&filter=0

then just modify them into a wad.
