Count me in Buddy, also I use photoshop a lot so if you'd like any help I can try my best to pitch in there too.

i'm guessing you will pm about testing?

ok hmmm. pondering this ...... its summery but still garish. i like it. maybe if i apply some sheen to the mip maps it might help, i dunno. HELP ! feed me with ideas please.

Pics not loading.

And why don"t you just batch process the textures?

iam processing them in bulk via photoshop with a custom made action for the changes. what difference does it make how i do it ?

with mod but at 19:00 hrs. i like this personally. its going to have to be video comparisons from now on, the bandwidth on these images i produce is incredible.

taking off and getting to these images was prettydamn cool at this time with the new detail. up close the textures are so much more alive with fine detail. maybe a bit rough tbh.

looks amazing

France wip. ran these through the same changes.


ok so the image below ive tweaked in photoshop. added some red a little blue and minus a touch of green. such a basic change, but its getting that burnished summer look i think,

ignore plane and sky colours for now. but ill say this. the developers in my high opinion have too much yellow light thing going on. to much characterisation in this sim. or well there computer monitors are set up quite differently maybe i should try a cold temp settings ???, because i think thats it. everything becomes so much nicer with techniques i should not have to employ. i believe i have a good eye for things and i sware theres somthing not right. anyway voila.

this practically emulates a colder temperature setting in comparison to all others and for some reason its now looking "propa" all images are the same mod pack. no changes other than time of day. either 19:00 or 13:00

fufufeedback time !



im off to bed with a phat spliff to chill out \o/ i believe im finally getting somewhere. and adding to the overall pallette with more different colours has made the tiles less distinguishable whilst adding a realistic element of chaos out to the horizons, enjoy navigating lol.

further changes may involve a more hazy look with the mips especially out to the horizon. not sure. the effect should work well with the morning mist and general dusk time.

Looks great but maybe reduce the contrast a tiny bit, just to soften slightly the colour difference.
The last picture looks nice but i couldnt put my finger on what it was that seemed out, then i realised straight away.

Its the water!! at the moment it matches the crazy luminous stock landscape, plus the game engine for some bizzare reason does the opposite of reality and lightens textures with distance rather than darken them, but you wont be able to change that.

Water here in the UK has a brown type colour especially the English channel,


most inland water ways are a very similar greeny brown colour because of the sand and silt.



If you could try to emulate those colour i think with your current textures it would maximize the effect beyond belief.

EDIT# Sorry but i just realised there's some dirty bastard letting his dog shit on the grass
