If you include one of the 'Signature' textures in a level constructed with the Jackboot textures you can use them freely. I hope people use only the Jackboot textures in a level rather than mixing with other level textures but as long as I get credited for their creation with teh sig texture and a word in the txt file thats fine by me. .> Things you should know >. I made these level textures for my Quake2 level Jackboot, it can be downloaded from my site as can a Q1 and Q3 version (eventually) Its inspiration was the film by George Orwell '1984' and my recently learning that the Director of the film was from the same town I am in Scotland called Stranraer. Also shades of the Watchmen creeped in near the end. If your looking for a name to put to the style of textures and look of the Jackboot map then call it 'Steampunk'. Thats what i call it. Its Cyberpunk but retro style, which is if anything 'Steampunk' As a style its beginnings can be charted back to films like Metropolis, Brazil, Tetsuo2, City of the lost children and is coming back in a big way with films like the Matrix and Dark City now winning popularity in the cinema.
