new bludliens screens and gamespy story.

zaphod · October 19, 2004 at 5:28 PM

there is a article on gamespy about vampire: here

and some new screens from the chinatown hub of the game. They finally released some screenshots from one of the favorite levels that I did, although they aren't vary well taken, and they are compressed to hell.

here is all the pictures: link

and here are the pictures from the level I was talking about:

sadly it doesnt look as atmospheric as i had hoped it would be .. but well - these are just some (as you said -> badly taken) screenshots. the fog looks like the hl1 one and there arent many shadows.

anyway - cool stuff

zaphod · October 19, 2004 at 6:32 PM

actually, there is no hl2 art content in the game, save for possibly a water shader, or some other environmental effects.

Isn't that bended lamp used in the CS:S version of Office? Not that I mind if it is, it just looks similar.

zaphod · October 19, 2004 at 6:53 PM

yes, but it's actually stolen from bloodlines. css office was done by macman, who worked on bloodlines up untill earlier this year.

yea, becuase the people that took the screenshots have no idea what anistropic filtering is

also, the fog in bloodlines, and in hl2 - is the same hl1 fog.

Sa74n · October 19, 2004 at 7:23 PM

oh ... okay. everything excused

maybe you should try using huge (animated) particles additionally to have the fog appear somewhat dynamic and not as static as in hl1/2 ?

did i mention that most characters look excellent ? wewt

zaphod · October 19, 2004 at 7:36 PM

the time for altering any art in the game is far past, we are done working on the game. I'm glad you like the characters, a lot of people say they pale in comparison to hl2's, which on a case by case basis, they do for the most part. However we have litterally hundreds of unique characters. I wish we would have had 4 years to focus on making a handfull of characters look awesome *sigh*

tnoh · October 19, 2004 at 7:44 PM

I like those gore effects. Well done!

You learn something everyday.

Another plus point of HL2 being released: Bloodlines can be unleashed. Let the good times roll!
