I think my tutorial uses HD textures in the screenshots so if you just have stock it might look different. I should redo the whole thing some day when I have time.

Dromed doesn't include any textures or objects at all in any version, it's just the editor. They are likely using custom resources in the screenshots you're seeing.
I kind of forgot that a lot of what I'm seeing are custom texture and object packs.

Time to start going through the newer tutorials then I think.

There was file floating around somewhere that had premade starting point with Garrett, weapons, etc. that was useful. I just opened up KOMAG's old tutorial which is a still a good starting point I think.
One thing you could do is add a starting point to the default cube, add a core set of weapons and inventory items, and then save the .mis or .cow file. When you start a new mission just load the .mis or .cow file you saved, start adding terrain and then drag the starting point to the terrain.

But I like the feeling of creating that StartPoint myself. Dunno why, it just feels good to me.
It's about as far as I get sometimes, but I still enjoy it. :-)
I've never read through nicked's tutorial before.. Might be time for a read.
In it, he says he doesn't know why the default texture is called Jorge. Certainly he's seen this since writing that tutorial, but just in case (it's named after a monk in a book).

Ah well, cool then!
Can't remember what I had for breakfast some mornings after a few hours, but my brain can remember that almost 20 years ago that was posted.. funny how the mind works (or doesn't) sometimes.
