When do you apply textures to your project?

I ask becuase this could give me some insight on how maps are done the fastest with best results

So...
Verrrry last thing
I place them throughout the project timeline
As I go (eg plane is made > editble mesh > edit shape > texture)

Well once 100% of modelling is done you should texture with the right mapping setting for stuff. I'm not sure if i have answered what you wanna know though.

At the end. If you texture before you are done some tools don't work right and such.

Yeah I agree, I make sure almost everything is seperate (at least on indoor/2 floor maps), then texture becuase imo, its easier to access everything (cuz I don't label my shapes Razz )

I usually make my whole map model, merge the buildings in with my map, then hide the buildings and texturize the map model.

Well, that's how I use to do it. Now my buildings and map model are seperate.

I first merge the buildings so it's easier to see the size of everything.

I did everything as I went along. Don't listen to these fools - placing textures in your geometry will NOT affect anything at all. It's a good way to visualize what you're making and get the texture work out of the way while you finish off your level.

I use this approach as well...but it just causes me to export and play with an unfinished map most of the time until I can get it done, lol.

Don't listen to these fools


:rolleyes:

Some things like vertex paint give warnings when you wan't to edit the object. Sometimes it fucks up the texturing part.
