why do you torment us so? 

Admittedly this one isn't anything special, started off with me trying to create an oldskool style map, but I soon got bored of the theme and morphed it into sock_eg. So detailing isn't immaculate or anything. Would appreciate some comments all the same :-)

And the ogro faces are probably getting ditched.. can't help thinking they clash. 

very nice!
but i think that ogro faces are out of place there. with such oldskool texes only id's texes will work good. overall, nice oldskool castle, reminded me ones of elek and mexx. 

and touch up the lighting. Otherwise looks cool. 

I'd say use the original id gargoyle textures instead of Ogro's. 

I like the ogro textures, makes a change from standard id textures. 

They suck. The rest looks nice....for architecture....remember gameplay is the new architecture....and spawn are mandatory. 

...with modified versions of the graphics in sock's set, to fit with the theme better. The borders around them stick out too much too, gonna set them back a little. Will take on your note about the lighting nitin... need to investigate attentuation values some more.

Shamb, hadn't forgotten about gameplay :-) .. will try not to rush that area. 

the shots look great! nice looking architecture there. ditto on the ogro faces sucking. i'd go with the hanging body textures, myself. 

Great to see you back in the swing, very cool designs going on too. Is that Rubicon studded metal? Looking forward to playing this one.

....remember gameplay is the new architecture....

lol 

Yeah, as everyone else said, the ogro faces don't seem to fit.

And that sky is fucking hideous

Dont know if they're of any use or even if they look good in-game but there's meant to be 200o+ textures made by BerneyBoy. 

Most are jpg, with some tga in there too. File size is around 124mb. Unsure whether they would suit peeps around these parts, but they may, there are some nice ones in there. depends on what your after really. 

judging from the high-res preview images, some of those are really nice. Downloading now. 

they arent royalty free etc, bit of a shame, as they would be great for photosourcing textures...and they mostly arent so hot as game textures 'out of the box' so i suppose they would only really be useful for prerendered stuff 

Some look nice, some fairly average and some crap.

Oh, and there's only a 1/3 the number of textures he says, the rest are just the same but hue shifted to either red or blue. 

what does that mean?

metlslime - yeah, you're right. After I finally got some of those to load up, I checked a few out. Some of the bricks etc look pretty decent and could be used in a lot more than just urban themed maps.

noentity,

that's still 700+ isnt it, worth checking if there's some decent stuff I guess. 

i mean that you can't use them as a base for making textures, which would have made them a very useful resource. 

why would you want the textures nitin,
are you mapping

no, I just thought I'd point it out in case anyone wanted some new ones. 

id seen the mayang site before (its probably the best ive found) but the others were new to me, morguefile.com in particular looked rather good! 

Not my map, but I thought I'd bring it to everyone's attention. Black Town: http://planetquake.com/lvl/screen_shot.asp?shot=x_blacktown
