hi, i don't know who's the responsible for the textures, but this message is a hope of knowledge sharing  :)
i'm a 3d animator, but i have a lack of texturing knowledge, specially games texturing wich requires mapping (wich i know) and photoshop texture creation, with details of texture itself, damage, dirt, scratches, etc. so, i would like to know some tips, you dont have to tell me what to do, just say a good place to learn, a good tutorial for this, or anything you're in the mood to tell me  :D

you can check this preview on an animation i'm workin' on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQbpTTmqR9A

and also you can see my gallery on http://fael097.deviantart.com/

since fsx release, and specially after VRS superbug's release, when i saw their cockpit, i just would like to say, fdst, good job on your model and textures. their blows. (nothing against them, good add-on, but you know... arial font on the hud? wtf?)

i believe that's it, feel free to answer if you want, and not to if you don't  ;)

thanks guys
cheers!

If you want a *really* good source of information about creating textures to be used in games, I STRONGLY suggest you to buy this book:

http://www.amazon.com/Dark-Side-Game-Texturing/dp/1592003508/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1254681632&sr=8-1

It's an hands-on approach to use Photoshop layering techniques, to create realistic textures that will look good in game.

thanks umberto, i'll get this one.
cheers!

I would love to have the skills that the FSDT and FlyTampa guys have to not only texture but to make the models as well. It took me a good 3 or 4 days just to get fairly descent at painting aircraft, I can only imagine trying to learn how to model and texture buildings. If I had skills of those that I mentioned above I would probably never sleep since I would be doing all my favorite airports that no one else does.
