Almost 200, and only 31 are unique?

Aaagreen:
The reason is simple. For each of these 31 textures you get additional textures for shader networks. So there are normal, spec, displacement, light emission baked or ambient occlusion maps. This sums up to this high number.

And the number of 31 is the result of hard work. You have to keep in mind that each texture has been created from a high-poly model. Each screw, pipe, panel, plate or shutter comes from a 3d model.

@Frank Geppert, then shouldn't it have said 197 maps rather than textures? When someone uses the term texture it just locks my mind on diffuse maps, and things from there get confusing.

Typos, can't live with em, but somehow I do

God, what is it with you people and complaining. Guess what? These are texture maps, IE textures. Therefor it's nothing wrong. You get a great deal by buying this and I don't see the point in nitpicking things in their product description.

I really enjoy reading this

Usage of additional TEXTURES (MAPS) can be best explained here:
Can you belive that this is only ONE POLYGON
Please look on those buttons and bumps. When you make additional maps from real high poly models like in this case you will get the best normal and height maps. Even those buttons are casting shadows and make you to really belive that it is very high.

lazerus: Yes, we do some outsorcing at Dexsoft, but this pack has been made by ourselves (actually I am the one to blame). We are 2 people running Dexsoft plus lots of excellent external artists.

azunaki: Absolutely, we still plan to make more games in the future. But currently our model packs take a lot of time.

this thread is very useful, you can easily see how important normal/bump mapping (which one is it again? XD) is, and one that is highly doubtful to it can easily see how useful it is.

thanks for the explanation

Both terms are fine. Many call it bump mapping though the term bump mapping could also mean the technique from still renders with grey-scale height maps. So the term normal mapping is more precise to explain that you use normals for the direction of the light-reflection of each pixel.

I personally started with Gamespace couple of years ago and I switched to Lightwave to have better uv-mapping, rendering and animation tools for a still affordable price, while tools like Maya and 3ds max were out of my range.

Later the original makers of Lightwave founded their own company and made the new 3d tool called modo, and I also bought this one.

The models for this texture pack have been made in modo. The reason is: modo has the best modelling and unwrapping tools and baking of textures is absolutely easy compared to other applications.

I also have licenses of ZBrush and Bodypaint, but I use them only for organic modelling.

I use Lightwave myself, Frank; but I've thought of getting Modo for the reasons you've given. I don't think Core is going to overtake Modo for some time now. Is it easy getting into the Modo interface, coming from Lightwave? I've thought about grabbing D. Ablan's tutorial set for Modo, should I take the plunge.

It is super easy. I was shocked how similar it was in the beginning. But then you discover all these features you always missed in LW. It is just like an evolution of Ligthwave.

LW Core on the other hand looks extremely similar to Modo, but it will take some time until they offer the same power and ease of use. So I will watch this also carefully before I buy into it.

Dayyuummm, these are some awesome sci-fi textures. Does your website accept prepaid visa? or do i need to sell my stuff to make money cause my "debit card" never came with those 3 numbers you need for the security thing... so yeah really nice textures.
