A neat look at the design process of Cendark3 - one of my maps for The Core. Note that this video begins when the map is around 2 days into development already, then continues through three days of additions and tweaks.

I really like this method of showing changes, and I'll definitely be doing it on future maps!

Damn, that's some pro lighting...and the sexiest shadows I've seen in Goldsource oO

Great progress, can't wait to play it!

Valve Guy: Hey Gabe! Check out this mod! They're doing some pretty cool stuff with GoldSource.
Gabe: That's cute I guess. Bring me some pie. In fact, bring me all the pie.

Cool stuff. Very atmospheric and calm, until that scientist explodes.

Nice and atmospheric, expansive, and the new textures are awesome!
Also, where did you get the AR sounds? Did you do them yourselves?

The explosion and weapon sounds have all been taken from L4D2. It's one of the very few elements of The Core that we haven't produced ourselves.

On second thought, at the last evolution process (with the grunts), I kinda liked those lights at the top of the columns, had a nice mood to it. Sure, the vent shaft gave the area more detail, but they could still be there. Just a little nitpick, everything else is still mind-blowingly awesome ;)

The lights are still there, you just can't see them from that angle anymore!

Thanks a lot for the comment <3
