    The inside of the dome ... mostly looking for sky textures..night sky, daylight, star maps..etc

    also looking for a site with free seamless textures...

    ALSO textures for building interiors preferable with baked lighting and shadow effects

    also looking for UV maps Obj. files..various shapes for building homes..furniture...

    here is an example..me in my chill out spot..and yes that's a HALO suit..I did not make that.

    [​IMG]

    here was the cathedral built by another xen member..chaste....it was part of xen HQ...note the xoo on the floor

    [​IMG]

    here is an outside before it was textured..chaste built this his first week in game..

    [​IMG]

    chaste also built castle onslaught..here is a statue inside he built

    [​IMG]

    this is the ballroom chaste built in castle Onslaught..note the above statue is in here....we had some great parties inside here

    [​IMG]

    this is the spire at the top of castle Onslaught..300 meters tall castle...

    [​IMG]

    so those are examples...I can use any shape and most any texture on something in game.

    even t shirts..:)..

    the xoo symbol in the back ground..the x rotates inside,,the O's rotate around it..

    Seamless Textures(also known as tileable textures) are easily created with photoshop. I have to look through my notes again as we handled this 3 weeks ago. but it can be done with a few mouse clicks and a bit of edittin. it's often nicer and could be higher quality (make pictures outside for example)

    i doubt much people would be too keen to give their .OBJ files away tho.

    If youre looking for nice textures, try www.cgtextures.com

    they have a butt-load of large format pics that you can easily make tileable. If you would like a bit of a tut, let me know and i'll be happy to show you how :)
