I am sorry to see that Starbucks is closing 250 stores in the USA but it reminds me that I opened one once, in the Parisian Ghetto of Tomb Raider, The Angel of Darkness.
Unfortunately I could only find thumbnails of the store itself, nothing Hi-res. That’s what happens when you’re a pre-cloud type digital nomad, running a homemade PC with a free Linux distro.
What does this have to do with anything? Let’s see if I can make a long story short. I’m deeply grateful that I have all of the graphic media that I need to be able to present my work. The graphics are also my own work, but I didn’t use AI. I used open source software called GIMP and I learned how to manually manipulate images by using Alpha Channels, for example.
These are skills that I picked up hacking the game Tomb Raider, The Angel of Darkness. I posted on Tomb Raider Forums as Zac Medley.
If you’d like to have my Starbucks in your PC version of AOD then these are the textures that you’ll need. They’ll have to be saved into the .TGA format in order to be usable by the game engine.
Salvation
- Call upon the name of Jesus Christ,
- believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
- confess your sin.
