Anyone know if it's possible to import TDP/G & TMA sound and textures into TDS and make them work?

It's possible, but I wouldn't recommend it. They're much lower res than the T3 set, and they don't have normalmaps accompanying them.
But if you wanna go that route, get the Nvidia DDS plugin for Photoshop (or the free Blender equivalent) and mipmap them all, then find a tutorial on how to pack them in matlib files...which I think someone has around here.

Thank you I appreciate the info...I'll do some work into it and see what I can come up with. :thumb:

Sounds would be very nice though. Original Haunt sounds for one, and some of the ambients.

Don't want to go off on the whole copyright thing again. But T1 and T2 content is copyrighted. Just so you know.

True.
But who exactly owns the copyright? If it is entirely Eidos are they going to be fussed about us using copyrighted sounds from one of thier games in the creation of FMs for another. Especially when they are sequels?

Well, if they gave us the stuff to use for missions in T1 and T2, I don't see why you couldn't import them over, and just put somewhere in the credits that select textures were taken from T2 or T1 and are copyrighted to Eidos. Seems to me like they are already out there, you have bought T2 and they gave you the editor with the textures...we can use em, or should be able to.
By the way, if you do get some sounds and textures converted and they look or sound as good as the T3 stuff, be sure to post em for us =) I'de love to get my hands on some of the old sounds and some of the posh textures from both games.

Would love to re-create the atmosphere of the originals...Combine TDP-TMA-TDS all the sounds and possibly models (classic guards-burricks...etc...) Nostalgia baby!
Now we just need to hack in some swimable water and some rope arrows and some spiders and some burricks and some craymen and some leftover bots :sly: hehe
