Sprites help Created 17 years ago2007-03-04 05:59:31 UTC by LuntiX

Alright, Ive been making a map for a while. I showed it to a fair bit of people, they like it. One thing the map seems to be missing is sprites (bushes, shrubs, etc). I'm wondering, where would I find them?

I wouldn't use sprites to make shrubbery and plants, unless it's for really small things like weeds and grassy patches. They look really horrible for large objects, and we don't live in the Doom era any more, so it's a bit strange to see them. Instead, I'd use models for plants, which are actually quite easy to find, unlike sprites.

So, I'd tell you to check out DoenerKing for a good source of models, but it seems that website is under construction or something. Since there's not too many other options at the moment, I'd recommend you check out Day of Defeat's GCF, as it has a ton of plants in it.

Use sprites for lighting or cheap particle effects (I assume this is HL1). Tree and Bush tend to look sucky due to their flatness. Use models like srry said.

Oh, I forgot to mention, there's also a fair amount of tree models in the Counter-Strike GCF.
