[WIP] Ground texture mod

[Mauri]

Attempts to get something from the existing textures is a waste of time. Playing with the light will not give anything. Textures must be completely reworked.

yeah thats great. but that dude has got a whole load of more problems on his hands now. no roads, misplaced trees etc etc the list goes on. i could easily replace these tilable textures for english fields just like that but that most certainly isnt the way unless you create everything from scratch. and without the sdk is doubt thats too possible. but when it is ill be all over that with my modellor buddies.

i will probally release a darker trees only mod for now.

This is possible without the SDK. We need to take the original texture and replace all the small fields step by step. Yeah it's time consuming, but this is possible.

yehp ! its a major PITA imo. but somthing i might try. besides the alpha channel is a good basis to work on for layout.

Looks good Ali. I'm keeping a keen eye on your progress...

Very nice work, Ali!
Whilst the work that guy on the Russian forum has done looks nice, are the colours really representative of summer? It looks more like Spring to me.
It shows, though, how 3'D hederows really are needed to give the game that realistic boost.
Rather than creating new tiles, couldn't that guy have just recoloured the existing ones?

EDIT-looking at all the pictures on the Russian forum, I think the default colours are much better.
