Update 28th July 2012
Another level finished, explore Hoth again!
The Hoth retexture is finished!
Hello again fans of JKA! I'm proud to announce that the Hoth level retexture is now completely finished and uploaded as a seperate pack. I added a better version of every wall/ground/object/snow/ice (etc.) texture of at least double the resolution of the original, the ground texture (snow) is even 8!!! times the size, which explains the size of the pack. Also I tried to enhance the look and feel of hoth by choosing custom Ice and snow textures throughout all three parts of the hoth level, to achieve a more realistic, clean and 'icy' look.
Here are some screenshots showing the "highlights" of the retexture. Please look at them in full resolution otherwise the differences are not as clear.

Even more screenshots will be added soon!
Please download the new pack as soon as it's authorized for download and install it by unzipping it to >your JKA directory</gamedata/base
IMPORTANT! If you already have other packs of my mod installed please add a "l" infront of the hoth-pack filename to ensure that the textures of this pack overwrite the older versions in other packs of my mod.
Great job! These textures are really impressive. You really gave this some thought.
Thank you very much! That's nice to hear.
I can't tell the difference at all :P
Here's a diferent shot from another level which does show the purpose of my mod in a more obvious way ;)

Yes, these look amazing. I'm getting goosebumps just looking at the images, and during this very hot summer, that's a good thing!
That's exactly what i wanted to achieve :D
