It's really hard to get a realistic plain grass texture in a video game. This one isn't bad but you should search about another one to get a better result.

The sidewalks are really nice, dunno if it's correct from the intersections however. Concrete is perfect.

In fact, you can only replace an existent texture by another one, you can't remap these textures e.g., too bad because this grass texture would be nice from another place, IMO.

Edit.

About the GTA VC textures, they're very low. You should try to get one of the GTA SA/GTA IV grass textures (more than 512 px).

I was trying not to use GTASA, because the grass isn't flat in that game. Maybe I'll replace it with grass from GTA, I don't know, I just don't want to spend too much time on it.

I know I can't make the grass realistic in MM2, I'm just trying to improve it. I've been working on the grass for days, it's so hard to get it right.

I think I'll leave the grass for now. And come back to it at a later date. But thanks for your criticisms everyone, your input really helps.

Looks just as bad as MM2 grass.

@Silent - double width stripes

In this occasion, I think Silent was on the money.

Looking nice, but the one "double width stripes" reminds a bit of a soccer field.

Haha. That's where I got the idea from. FIFA 2006 on my PS2.

Very nice new sky texture, it's awesome. I see it perfect for the noon and cloudy time combination. :) Great work in textures modding too. :wink:

A skin template? No, but I could create one. The model that Zac used, I created the skin using a 1024 x 1024 canvas in Photoshop, no fancy crap, just a square - so I guess there's no need for a template?
