Mansion, right after it was abandoned

For a change!

Allright, after seeing too many ugly retextured maps, I decided to re-texture the mansion map myself.

Story behind the map:
As we all know, at least I hope so, the map named 'Mansion' is modeled around the old ruins of a Mansion. This version of Mansion is modeled around the same mansion as the original, but this time it's a few years earlier, right after the owners left the place to be precise. As you will probably see, there is no mold in the basement, and the furniture hasn't yet lost it's colour.
Thanks to GianPaolo: To make sure everyone gets the idea, this version of Mansion is supposed to represent the Mansion right after the owners left the place.

Edit: Added a video, it's underneath the previews.
Here are some previews:

/agree'd..

maybe u could add some new things in there???
Like a secret room ( when u walk trough the doors ur getting into a new room.. ? )

You kinda made it darker/lighter in some parts.
The only real change I see is the dining table.

I wish it was as simple as that Stephan, but I had to do a lot more.
And thanks for the comment on the dining table, I'll add a Poll.

Lol'd.
click twice the edit button
first : 'edit'
w8 till its changed
then reclick so the size is big again ;)

There is a reason why the textures where made to be looking old, there was a story so keep it that way thats my opinion.

Not much of a difference except the dining table, you just increased the contrast on each of them, and made it high quality. still good job :3

And that's your right, but in my view, this version is part of that story.
And for the 'story', MaIet did not really give much background information about the maps.
I'm still waiting for the constructive comment.

It wasn't just the contrast, it was way more, and there's much more in the map, except I didn't take any screenshots of it since I would need all day to screenshot every part of the map.
I would gladly post the .mrs file, but I'm afraid that McSic will use it without my permission.
But HELL!! You saw right through me! Improving the low quality of the textures in GunZ is my main purpose, you're the first one to see that, thumbs up!

I think the orginal looks more realistic

It's amazing but i really don't like the color of the table o_o' ew

I like the idea behind it, But it's just a game. Nothing in a game is realistic...

The dinning room colors don't fit right, and whyd you take away the shining light from the center of the map.. >.>. otherwise, its cool. But I wouldn't want to replace what the map is now.

I beg to differ

Since many people drew conclusions from the screenshots, I'll make an video, a quick flyby of the map. Will take aprox. 15 minutes. I'll be right back.

Edit: Made the video, rendering it now, I even cared enough to insert background music! Will take 8 more minutes, after that I'll upload it.

Screenshot the one you really changed, and lol thx o_o.

I like it, don't change it. I particularly like hows it's darker and more vivid.
Good Job!

First off all GAY MUSSSSSIICCCC WTFOOOKKKK.

Second, I don't see a foking difference. LOL...

I think if you let a No-lifer that plays ijji gunz from the Born-date he wouldn't regonize the difference...

Like it, btw can you make garden's quality better also :3

I can see a HUGE difference.
Everything's sharper, some things are color changed, some blended things are now seperated into distinct colors.

Galaxy, you so obv never play mansion.

*Cough* Offensive post *Cough*
First of all, it's not Gay music, it's Johan Sebastian Strauss - An die schonen Blaue Donau
Second, I can take your comments, the comments of a 15 year old Vlaaming, incapable of designing a grammatically correct English sentence.

Nah, just joking, you got me there Galaxy <3

I only like the pillars in the middle (the bottom part).

Oh the irony; the bottom part of the pillars, they're called 'posts', are the parts which I, in my eyes, really screwed up. But I'm still waiting for your constructive comment Stephan.
Hit me with it, hit me like you would hit Hilary Clinton on a hot summer evening while you're ripping off her clothes with my GOD, an animal-like lust to have raw and hard-...

Even if it's a matter of speaking, I never would rip off HER cloths on a hot summer evening.

But overall, nice job on the resolution change (you done it pretty well).
Though your doors with the golden glow is a down point of the re-texture.

Perfect, i really like it, just the table, maybe if you could make it another color, don't make my opinion go down on you though, if you like it as this, keep it like this.
I like it!

pretty good

Here's the list:
Photoshop
Gunzcool.exe (Also known as Debug GunZ)
.mrs unpacker
2 Batch files
The original map.mrs files of ijji-gunz
A plug-in for photoshop to be able to open .DDS files
Common sense and logic

And that's about it.
