Forum wad

<div class="IPBDescription">It worked for dod...</div>Right then, I have heard several people stating that their maps are using many different custom wads and that it is becoming annoying. it can also be awkward for others to get all of these wads so they can run the .bps's.

So what I am suggesting is that all of us mappers and artists get together our textures and make one large 'Forum Wad' for use in NS maps.

If you have any textures, post them here, or links to them or at least get them to me somehow.  There will of course be a readme with it giving the authors full credit for their individual textures.

[Edit] Whats wrong with -wadinclude?  Well, nothing, but I also see this as a way to get new textures out there to the NS mapping community.  Add a bit more variation to the textures available and overall increase the quality of the maps. [EDIT]

So what d'ya think guys?

    If I only had a bloody host to put all the ones I have, the ones I do know about are:
    wall_lab.wad
    ca_wall_lab.wad
    ns-yama.wad
    ns-chromeangel.wad
    teck.wad
    Any others that I have missed (besides ns.wad and ns_bast.wad) ? I have all these wads, but I have no way to get them online.

    I posted some pics, but they're not in a wad (yet).

    if people want to email their wads to me, I'd be happy to compile a single "mega wad" and host it at my webpage...

    I will gather together all the wads and try and get permission from their creators, then I will send it to somone for hosting.  Sound good?

    maybe we should throw this over to the artwork forum and give people like a month to contribute textures, then compile all the wads and release them.
