    Hmm i have recently switched host becouse of the enormous mountain of problems with the old one (www.one.com) , the new one is hostgator and seems to work much better. I wonder if there could be something the programmer didnt change in the move, let me check that.

    In the mean time please send you suggestions to jimmy.livefjord@gmail.com wich is my provate e-mail, thanks alot man for trying ;)

    Kindly // Jimmy

    Here comes a teaser of the next asset. There will be tons of different content in the barrels. One with apples,gold,coal,water,oat and so on. there will also be a new barrel where the metal pops out in the mesh (the black barrels) the values on this asset will be insane ! ,

    Couldn't buy off the asset store because I'm on 3.4 and can't use 3.5 at the moment. I bought some off your site. They're amazing. I'll buy plenty more eventually.

    Rock or granite textures would be nice, something not quite for walls but for boulder or steep hill meshes but not necessarily a cliff.....but could have tapering ruts or something.

    Hey man,
    I am not sure what you mean. If you want to buy the entire texture pack just visit www.handpaintedtextures.com , if you have tried to buy from the unity store here i am not sure. I uploaded the texture pack here on Unity and have only had bad experiences so far. The custummer support have been awful. I doubt that i will upload anything to the unity asset store again.

    Yea people who have Unity version below 3.5 cannot buy anything on the store that is uploaded by people using version 3.5.......

    I noticed you lowered your prices on your site. I bought only 5 textures which are all superb, I'll try to buy more each week as I have money, but that is a really great price for both your models and textures. Really takes things up a notch in game. :) Actually seemless tiles.

    I didn't notice a "package" deal on your site like you have with the floor pack and larger pack in the store. But checkout was a breeze and files were accessible immediately which was nice. I'll go write you a review now :)

    Hay man !,

    Thanks alot man !! . "Yea people who have Unity version below 3.5 cannot buy anything on the store that is uploaded by people using version 3.5......." wow that is just insane. Talk about ruin the point with having a store, sadly i am not supriced.

    I am glad you think i have a good price. More content is comming up soon to ;)

    I just noticed that the texture pack isnt up on the page wich is strange. I am updating a lot of things on the page so the programmer must have done some mistake. I will tell him as soon as he goes online and it will be fixed in notime. Thangs alot for telling me about this.

    I have recently moved my site to hostgator after having huge problems with one.com, NEVER EVER USE THEM ! From now on i think the download should work without a problem. keep buying and i will keep painting ! Big thanks for writing about my texture pack.that is awsome ! ,please follow us on twitter and like on facebook + spread the word to ;)

    Kindly // Jimmy

    I just downloaded some trial software to generate normal maps and with 2 clicks it gave some default maps I was testing out in the editor. Probably too strong but it lets you adjust the sharpness, intensity, etc I'm sure some customers would be interested



    I like how you share advice in the readme file, as a photographer unsharp mask is very useful when used in moderation, especially if you do it over a couple layers at partial transparency. A final touch I like to do at the end is duplicate layer the original image, bring it to the top layer, set it's opacity to 5-10%, set it to "overlay", then duplicate it about 5x which just blends things in nicely and compensates for any over sharpening.

    I am actually not a fan of normal maps (thats why i never do them. I think games always looks better with painted light. But thanks for posting this i bet as you say a lot of people will find it handy. I generally prefer ndo. super easy as apegood results quick.

    More updates on the barrels. Getting closer ;) , I will try to squeeze in every bit of information that i can in the texture (512 pix). If alot of people buy this texture and enjoy it i am thinking about making an extra texture later on with only more ingredience inside the barrel. I think i would be able to put like 20 more ingredience on a 512 texture.

    Let me know what you think. Kindly // Jimmy

    Love the barrels! The light colored barrels though have the shadow on the upper metal ring in a different direction than the others though. Looks a bit weird when sitting next to each other ;)

    Edit: also, where can I buy your 3d models? Can't find them anywhere.

    Looking awesome maybe make the dents a bit more apparent,it looks like you got some duplicated polys sitting on top of each other or its just image artifact.

    Just out of interest how long does it take for you to make a texture like that from start to finish?

    Generally between 2 -4 hours. This texture only took an hour. the more stones you press into a texture the longer it takes. Its the details in all the cracks and so on that takes time.

    Here comes a sneak peak for the next asset. Four small lowpoly chests that are much easier in design, they will share one 512 * 512 diffuse.

    first chest done.
