BTW... I did a Google Image Search for "advanced vtol transport" - lots of interesting stuff turned up, but the real kicker was how many pics there were of WZ 2100 Transport Mods and discussions in these bbs ! !

Here, check it out:

I made as standard as possible pillbox with the basment fix for 3.0.

I will work on other hardpoint and bunker pie files in time adding to same texture.
This uses pie3 format and tcmask.
Have uploaded the pie file and textures.

Trying to Keep as close as possible to original textures while enhancing the resolution some.

Here is the blguardn.pie with added fix to basement Have updated the texture for previous fixed structures.

Taking my cue from the crete wall texture - there are surface imperfections effects that also imply the dimensionality of a rough hewn surface. I think the towers would benefit from a little of this effect while still maintaining their slightly darker contrast - hue. Just a thought.

blgrdnex.pie
I added a unchanged hardpoint behind it uses default textures for compare.

Uploaded just the pie file as texture is unchanged from above. blgrdnex.pie
Eventually I will have all the hardpoints and bunkers done and it will all fit on the one texture.
I am uploading in segments to make sure I don't loose data. I am not saving these files to use meself.

Due to them needing to look like the default ones I am changing the textures from default as little as possible Rman But this being done will give any artist the premade default structures with the terrain fix on them and a texture with a lot more room to work with ...(I hope)

Here is blguard1.pie I added a base section but Im not super happy with the extension texture.
I think it could be better might let other look at that.

I have uploaded the pie files and the updated texture for all the above structures.

Berg, except for the hardpoint extension, these look really good. However, when I try to use them in-game, they look like this:

It is the same for all the models, is seems. Could there be a difference in the tcmask implementation between our two repos?

Yeah, stealth (With Teamcolor )^^

I was running the test screenshots in the branch from Git 3.0 I will see what i can do with the stealth models It maybe the PIE3 format i used Although I was hoping the new branch was compatible.

Seems Page 29 was used sinse i last updated my git repo ....man you have to be fast... the above problem is page numbers clashing

Naw, the problem is that we strip the name down to "page-xx" so you are using master, and he was using his repo / or 3.0 and we don't have that page in the 3.0 repo yet. So the texture it was using was the wrong one.

Come to think of it, it should error out when that happens...

I had updated the texpage number, but forgot to set texture type to TCMASK for the tcmask textures. We really need to nuke that resource system... It works here now.

[Berg]

blguardr.pie added basement fix plus added more to page 29...
This makes all the tower defence structures complete I think, I am still not completely happy with the basement extension texture but its better anyone wanting to assist with texture jump in.
