Memo to self: Upgrade the hell out of that damn blurry turret texture.

yeah, I was just thinking about posting it in the SHTUP topic.

well, as stated many times before, when working with the Dark Engine, there is no such thing as free lunch.

some description and perhaps a save would be nice.

Nice. That SHTUP texture is lifted directly from Serious Sam, IIRC. With the new material features, I can make the red parts actually glow.

Can someone post screenshots showing the difference between the 3 different eggs?

Whats the differance between v1.0a and 1.0b of the eggs? I assume they are both "new" variations and the vanilla version in the above pics are the same only closer to the original, but it seems pictures of either the A or B or "new" vanilla version is missing. You show the default, and one of the new eggs but not all. Shouldn't you be showing two more pictures? (or perhaps put thumbnails in the zip folder)

Edit: My apologies for being redundant, i didn't see the post above this one until after I posted. I'm looking at the pic above for ver 1.0b and it looks messed up with a strange box around it. The color shading is a little darker than A but thats the only differances I see.

Thank you Vurt. You Rock.

Image: http://piclair.com/data/d9735.jpg - very obvious the alpha is missing in both..

In the "vanilla" edition the alpha is still left though.. and again, i removed the alpha because of the see-through part in the eggs that someone posted an image of.

Also, above isnt any egg afaik, it's some other thing that just happens to use the same texture.


Edit: ok fixed the red part that was transparent and see-through on the egg, and alpha is now kept.. not sure it fixes the squareness of the red part though, if both pics above really are from different versions it looks like it needs a .mtl to read the transparency correctly. if someone got a save at that place (which System posted) i can check how it looks.

Oh ok i see what you mean. I'll upload versions with a new alpha in a moment. Second image still looks bad imo, but maybe that's just how it looks on that model, i would have to see an image of the default texture to know.

I knew I've been forgetting something - the piles of disgusting worms really could use a vurt style update. currently, they are one of the worst looking elements, when running a modded SS2 install.

Not an easy task, since the worm pile isn't just some organic pattern. I'm convinced that Irrational created this texture by dumping a few dozen fishing worms in a pile and then photographing it.

I don't suppose you know the name of the texture?

I think I've found a texture that works perfect as a replacement:

This combined with my beautiful Bloom config will make them look quite interesting. What do you think ZylonBane? 


Joking of course.
