Most of a scene stays static and unchanging anyway
It's static because static lighting doesn't allow it to be more dynamic.

This may sound crazy but would it be possible to implement dynamic radiosity (aka real-time global illumination)? I have seen it done in old games like Quake 2.

in Vluzacn's Half-Life Tools v34 Post #305849
The bigger the light source, the blurrier the shadows. On a clear day shadows can be razor sharp because sun only covers about a degree on the sky. But on a cloudy day there can be no shadows at all because the whole sky becomes one huge light source illuminated by the sun...

in Need simple maps for audio-only game Post #305787
I think it's game-ruining.

Edit: Daub, in my opinion free rotation would oppositely allow for better perception of where the sound is coming from. Like in real world, you could move as fast and as slow as you want, gradually etc. Just experiment, I hope it's not that hard to implement...

in func_breakables for cs; need help Post #305745
I think it can... I haven't mapped for dozens of years but I think buttons reset every round. Mess around with the settings and flags.

Just experiment man... instead of writing tons of bullshit. EXPERIMENT!

"Touch" flag should work, try it with or without some other parameters and flags. Try func_button with "Touch activates" flag. Try zhlt_noclip 1 on it, NULL and BEVEL textures to make it non solid...

in Need simple maps for audio-only game Post #305742
Yeah, since you only provide one sense - sound, you better make it good. Because even in real world pure sound is hardly enough, since we have other senses like touch/pressure. So, like SpaG mentioned, some basic sound physics (single axis/plane, 2D or whatever, I assume) would add a lot.

Doom like mouse look would work great if it's possible. So you could stand and spin around and try to orient where you are.

I think you need a bit cleaner sounds, especially the wall bump one. The controls are a bit hard to get, I'm still not sure which way you're facing when walking sideways.

in Can't find leak in Hammer Post #305548
Cover half the map in solid sky and compile. If you still get leak it's in the uncovered half. Cover it and cut the sky in half again. Repeat this till it gets very small and you will find it easily.

EDIT: It means the leak is inside the sky brush.

Woooo, concrete jungle! Very nice, ninja. Add tons of dirt, rust etc everywhere. Add more adverts, wires hanging eveywhere. Look up some Hong Kong for inspiration.

Nice, noSICK. Like the darkness, kinda makes it mysterious and scary, feels almost like an old spaceship.
