Level Creation

The whole level was designed and textured in Autodesk 3Ds MAX 2010 and models were exported in DirectX (.X) file format. Vehicle models were downloaded from various free websites and were textured by me. Textures were downloaded from www.cgtextures.com and some textures were prepared using Adobe Photoshop.
