Nice. But uh, terrible way to place polygons much? and much big texture? Experimenting is always fun though.

If you ever use this, I'm guessing it'll be downsized?

Too polygon-heavy, but it looks great. If you keep the map-size small and shrink the texture a bit - it would make an awesome-looking map.

It's a nice concept, although with soldat being soldat and what not it's usually easier to implement this with scenery.

That said, here's some potential advice:
  • Shrink the size of the texture.
  • Don't reuse things like the windows when you can just have one.
  • Scale things down, Soldaten aren't very big, so buildings don't need to be.
  • Create variation through shading and scenery and remove redundancy in the texture.

Hope thats helpful.

thanks for the tips and here is my answers:)

1.Yes ofcourse ill do that if it is going in a soldat map(as i said above)
2.the reason for more windows is variation of the buildings and more (decals) but in the first house from the left i only used one window texture:) (the two windows at door is door texture)
3.yes ofcourse ill shrink it if it is going into a soldat map(as said above)
4. thanks for this tip:) but this is a texture test without using shadings sceneries or anything else but if im maping a map with the buildings ill make it more detailed

i always like to get tips and comments=)
