When you connect to a server with the map it should download the textures automatically, assuming the server has them.

Other than that, I dont know some server with textures.


EDIT: You can check out http://dplogin.com/files/textures/

i still can't download textures off servers... there's a setup for download skin, sound, maps and models... but that's it and it says servers don't have file...

Yeah, I suspected that, except I think those are textures from the quake 2 jump mod.
Cant help you there tho, you'll have to find them on the mod's site.

And Spook, do you have downloading enabled?

/amb2
/drip_amb

Unfortunately that map used some Quake2 media which isn't legal to redistribute.

oh... i gotta dig up my q2 disc?? which... is packed... away... lol

in regards to q2 media, jits... the fact that some are from q2 and it's being used on dp, doesn't that break the copyright rules? but considering dp was originally a mod of q2... (darn these copyright laws! :D)

I don't think there's anything wrong with referencing Q2 media, just distributing it.

i dont think there is either but since the game grew out of a q2 mod... isn't it slightly different? some textures are form q2 because the game came from that... so, if you are playing a map that requires the original q2 textures, that dont the textures count as part of the map that's being downloaded? am i making any sense? :D

The textures aren't compiled into the map like they were in Quake 1.  Also, the quake2 textures used a different palette, so they weren't used for paintball2 maps.
