These ones from cgtextures look pretty similar to my eye, but might need some work to make them exactly the same.

I also had a look on (
http://filterforge.com) http://filterforge.com to see if they had any filters that could make a floral wallpaper but none of them looked any good. Filterforge seems to be better for plain renders and post-processing effects than creating detailed, coherent patterns like that.
The only other thing I can suggest is that someone with better artistic skills than me paints them at a higher res. Perhaps it would be possible to trace them in Illustrator, scale them up and then drag them into Photoshop and add paper texture over the top, but that's a ways beyond my skill level.

That's a nice texture but the chest needs a good few more polys. :erg:
EDIT: Oh man I didn't notice how long ago the last post was.
Please don't yell at me. :x

Poly count looks fine to me. Where could you add stuff, while keeping the count low enough for dark, and the whole object looking consistent?

I never even touched the model - that's the original, it hasn't been updated.

I guess you could extrude the gold detailing a bit, but too much and it'll start looking overly-detailed for dark engine models. Plus, you might run into reskinning issues with FMs, such as currently happens when some of the new 3d panel doors get reskinned.

It's been a while since I last created any content for dark, but I'll try to refresh my memory and maybe give a new chest model a go. I'll try to take the reskinning issue into consideration. :)

Please excuse my ignorance, but is there a guide on how to add these great objects to thief 2?
