been hunting for textures and remembered when i used to make half-life / TFC maps back in the day there were a lot of textures..

so if you want too you can download your favorite .WAD files or if you have half-life installed you can grab it there. or you can find websites with the .wad texture files like this one.. http://www.cstrike-planet.com/wads

next download Wally either from here (faster) www.nugblazers.com/files/wally_155b.exe
or http://www.telefragged.com/wally/downloads.shtml

then just open wally with the .WAD file and it will show all the textures in the file and you can export them to .jpg or .bmp or whatever.

maybe this help some with finding textures :)

PS: you can also edit the textures with wally.. as you could probably notice. just fyi :)
PS2: if i find anymore good websites with the .wad files ill post them here. see below..
PS3: hmm do textures for OZ have to be 256x256? NM. so far they seem to work if not so thats good :)

PS4: gonna paste any more links to .wad downloads i find here..

If you're into ripping (like I am), you could always use a program like EverQuest Sound Rip (which I have hosted on my website somewhere) to rip textures (and sounds) right from EQ.

Aha! Here we are, from my host:
www.miriscusltd.com/EQSRv1.01.zip
Or, you could download from the creators at:
http://kaboom.shortweb.com/Applications/EQSR.html
Both the same version, I have it hosted on my site to ensure that it's safe should the original host go down, since that website is seven years old or so.

Also, what the fuck is the stupid rule about only being able to edit messages five minutes after posting? Is there any point?

I think that had to do with people posting then erasing what they posted, mainly if their question was answered, etc. PITA, yet, but worth it imo.
