[Ressource] Research thread

[Vikus van de Merwe]

This thread is for researches to preview pictures / 2d art, 3d models or texts!

We ONLY use self-created or LEGAL models so I advise you (member or not) to post ONLY pictures or texts here which are LEGAL and do not violate any copyrights!

Jox25 gave some nice links from the TF3DM model source. Here're some previews of models we didn't create but maybe integrate into the mod:

The polycount is between mid- to high-poly so we have to test if we should reduce the polycount for the most detailed lod.

Edit:
I got the models from "The Free 3D Models" and here's the license:

Minas Tirith. Pretty high quality. The only one thing is permission for it.
I also remember one guy who have created Black Gates for TATW in 3d max or smth like this. But that settlement was too good for med2 engine.

As it seems, nobody want to give us a high-quality model "for free", wich is understandable. But your page to the "Project Minas Tirith" was an public free-to-use project, but unfortunately I am not able to contact them.

mordor would be nice to see the skin of Bactria roxolanos or, if not possible to modify the campaign map
