Custom WAD

CUSTOM TEXTURE WADS:

I've developed between 450-520 new textures for my maps. Constant re-hashes of Black Mesa textures began to bore me so I insisted on ding lots of new textures for the maps I worked on. Some large portions of the map have 98% new textures. Many of the textures have been reworked to make them perfect for use. They're seamless, well balanced (no dark areas or repeating patterns that stand out obviously). I use photographs as the sources and images pulled from the Internet to build them. Often they are composites of several, doctored and tiled properly. I've still got some rough ones in the collection. I usually clean them up when I decide to use them.

Many belong specifically to Grand Central Terminal, the real life building. I photographed them myself or took them from books and articles. Others were more general, stone, doors, woods, rugs, walls, tilework, paintings, etc. For the tiles I even got fancy and took tile sets and composed my own tile designs. Others I shamelessly lifted from real manufacturers.

Since I've had some requests, I will be putting some themes of textures together for distribution. Of course I will put them at The WADFATHER site.

Here are some quickie indexes of the textures.
