) is sorta Sci-Fi already, so you're kinda mixing up nr. 1 with 3. And you know BM has some evil zombies, so might aswell blend that in with 1. and 3. But heh, even when you do set them apart they've already been done thousand times over and over again.But it doesn't matter that much tho, if you believe your idea is a good one then why not attempt it? I mean, just because it is unoriginal doesn't mean it isn't good or can't be fun. People often mistake originality for making a good mod. That is a myth. Surely an original plot or general idea is well appreciated, but that doesn't instantly mean it is a fun idea or a well-made idea. So all i'm saying, just go with what you think is best. I'll be keeping an eye out for your mod, whatever it may be.
). So if you must know;
) I decided to give it a go again. Everything was going good and all untill I came across the 'lighting' part, inside lighting that is. After reading so many lighting tuts this week and experimenting so much I'm at ends hope, hence this thread. Basicly I want to achieve the lighting as seen in the first 2 screenies, while I get the last 2 screenies. What am I doing wrong? As you can see the map is still almost pitch black, I use spot_light entities. The thing that annoys me the most is that I have some light right under my spot entities but basicly around that, AND ABOVE THE SPOTS (roof etc) it's incredible dark. As I'm being noclipping trying to figure out how Valve lighten the whole warehouse and still make the worthable focused lighting under the spots I came to the 1 conclusion that at the upper part they used a see-trough window texture with a white texture behind it (only at 1 side btw, which you can't see on the screenie). So I tried that out, but then everything almost seemed fullbright, thats how intens it was. Honestly, i'm losing hope; I need some serious suggestions and tips, and please, no tut links because they get me nowhere.
