Title: GPLed but untextured maps Post by: sago007 on May 30, 2008, 12:59:22 PM It has started to get popular to release maps under the GPL. I just wanted to mention a few of the authors that have chosen to contribute to the world.
With texture packs like TRaK's it should be possible to give them a look to suit. Spirit: http://maps.sp1r1t.org/ There is already one of his maps in OA (I think dmn_clown converted it) and I wouldn't mind some more. Lunaran: http://www.lunaran.com/ Vondur: http://wp.vondur.net It is quite a lot of maps and if someone want to take the hard task of retexturing one or more of them it would be appreciated. You might want to make a post here first so there isn't multiple people texturing the same map. Title: Re: GPLed but untextured maps Post by: kernel panic on May 31, 2008, 05:03:36 AM Excellent news. I hope to have some time in the future to do some of this.

Title: Re: GPLed but untextured maps Post by: kit89 on June 03, 2008, 08:22:55 AM I'll take a look.
I'll post more once I find a map that appeals to me. ;) Title: Re: GPLed but untextured maps Post by: andrewj on December 22, 2008, 11:24:18 PM I have began work retexturing Lunaran's map Lun3DM2 aka "Lets Drink Beer and Shoot Things".
Title: Re: GPLed but untextured maps Post by: andrewj on January 02, 2009, 06:37:28 AM I'm now working on oa_nemesis, a retexturing of Vondur's map "Nemesis Online". The original theme was kinda techy and kinda gothic, but I'm going to make it mostly gothic, using his other map in OA, "Khaooohs", as a guide.

Why would you want to retexture a map instead of just providing a pak with the missing textures (textures having the same name and which are similar to the originals)?Title: Re: GPLed but untextured maps Post by: andrewj on January 03, 2009, 12:56:20 AM Why would you want to retexture a map instead of just providing a pak with the missing textures (textures having the same name and which are similar to the originals)? Using different texture names (which is by far the easiest part) means the original map will still work correctly if somebody downloads and plays it.Title: Re: GPLed but untextured maps Post by: dash9 on January 03, 2009, 01:54:05 PM Why would you want to retexture a map instead of just providing a pak with the missing textures (textures having the same name and which are similar to the originals)?
