in The combines end -Comic Post #117132

This is a pseudo-serious/corky/humor Comic, I think.

It might be more of a Graphic-Novel kind of thing, though.

I sit around and talk to friends, listen to Aphex Twin and learn C++.

Then if I feel like it I'll map something.

I'm pretty sure you have to save it as .wav, as all the other sounds in HL2 are .wavs. For the other stuff I've no idea and I'd like to know how to do this as well

Looks cool, but may I ask why not very many people are making mods for Half-Life 2?

The gun and hand model looks awesome, by the way. =)

in Requesting VMF Post #116911

As we all may know, Dave (creator of de_dust and de_dust2) created a dust exclusivelyl for CGW UK (or some other British computer gaming magazine.)

On the disc that the BSP was located there was also an extra goodie-- the VMF for that map which reveals a whole bunch about a.) his map-making and b.) how to make a dust map LOOK like a dust map. If any of you have this file, could you contact me via AIM or MSN Messenger? Or even e-mail it to me at mexicoslothrop@gmail.com.

Thanks a lot! ;D

in Half-Life 2: SP Map Post #102420

Every single light has a fixture. They're just kind of blotted out by the point_light.

Also, the building this is in is a small abandoned power facility. You're in a room hiding when the combine come in and try to ruin your shit. =/

This level will be followed with a jeep map and then the end will be a large building with a lot of combine.

New screenshots! This first part of the map is done. (The level will be 3 maps long including a jeep map where you run from the combine.)

I think it turned out pretty good =)

in Half-Life 2: SP Map Post #102393

It's a base on a mountain. =P

Although I might be changing that to something else as I can't get the skybox where I want it. (I'll be keeping saving the skybox regardless though because it looks so awesome).

But yeah it's really awesome =X

in Half-Life 2: SP Map Post #102154

Yeah I'm working mostly on placement right now. I need to go through some architecture books to really make it look nicer =x Also I can't change the displacment anymore and that mountain IS only 1/8 of the actual skybox. The skybox is huge (but doesn't lag up the game) =o I could smooth out the terrain though. =)

Also, the doors are all kick-able. You get the gravity gun in the beginning to knock down the first door which reveals a guard. I also figured out cubemaps and for everybody information, the map is a base located on a mountain (above a mountain, actually, and supported by pillars below which will be added later)

in Mod I'm Working On Post #101066

I've had this sudden creative burst, an idea for a mod, and I'll need a lot of help.

The mod is called "Almanta" and the script (wip) can be read here:

http://np.shattereddays.net/Almanta.txt

Right now all I need is somebody/people knowledgeable in Mod-Making, maybe a voice actor or two (no need to be professional), and a Mapper or two.

I really think we could make this into something great =D

Also, the basic jist of the story is that you were convicted for murder but it wasn't a very concrete conviction and the Administrator of the Prison (Almanta) plots a scheme to keep you from being paroled.

You get away and you just try to survive all the forces coming for you (Ironic because you're now killing people to get away from the prison you weren't supposed to be in because you didn't kill anybody in the first place (this creates tension later in the game))

So yeah.

Comments?

2.) How do I make the tiles have bump-mapping on them like in Dust2?

3.) How do I make wire?

4.) How do I make reflective surfaces?

Wait.. Scratch that. Doi, there's a friggin' tutorial right in the Beginner section! I might either A.) Make a New Map or B.) Light 'The Tomb' dramatically.

I'd also like to point out that The Tomb was my first map, and Octagon was my second (I'm not quite fond of it either.)

I might just make a new map and light it. Thanks for the input!

Well, the thing is, I don't know how the lights WORK. I tried putting in lights and all, but they never work (I tried the environment_light or whatever it was, and just plain light. Yes, my computer can handle full graphics.)

I'd really like to learn how to get rid of full-bright and all that, but I'd really need some help. =/
