The texture above used the same background, the lowland series, which is used as the ground texture in the map. But the snapshot of the lowland used for the texture is a different shade/hue. Any idea why it has changed?

Lowfighter noticed, that alot of textures have also a *.bmph (bump/spec map) file of the same texname. Basically an 8bit grayscale of 512x512px saved as a tga file then change the extension to .bmph.

Adding this changes the look of the tex a lot . Prolly that's why it looks so different.

So, for eg: lowland.tga needs a bump/spec map called lowland.bmph in the same folder. Have a look at some of the original game bmph's and they'll give an idea of whats needed.

Cheers, Neil
