Hey guys, I have started mapping recently and i have a question. Where can i find mapping resources? What sites do you guys go to for custom materials such as textures and tutorials? For example, i would love to have an assortment of different looking trees, are there places where i can find this sort of stuff? Thank you in advance
intelopers.net and snarkpit.net are good places to start. Not sure about where you'd find props, there are quite a few trees in empires already though.

Player specs I already made a thread to help with building geometry such as building units to player specs so you can build right well in the right direction. Here is the thread. http://empires.cw-hosting.net/showthread.php?t=12
