[CS:GO] ar_blocks WIP

That looks really inventive - are those lego bricks models or brushwork? Looking great though, can't wait to see the finished result!

cool idea!!

fuck yeah, lego

You should add trigger_hurt on the legoblocks to make it more realistic.

Neat! Are you colouring the models with tint or separate skins?

Haven't tried the tint yet, but I don't know if source lets you with a diffuse. Right now I have 2 models with skingroups on them.

You can indeed, static props have a Color RGB field You can also mask where the tint is applied.

Great idea for outside of the play area.

Haha cool stuff

Where can I find info about this masking? I guess somewhere on the wiki, but I couldn't find it.

Really sweet colors and idea! It reminds me of a map I was working on two years ago.

There is a little information here: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/$blendtintbybasealpha

I think the best practical example however is the L4D2 vehicle sheet. The tint has a multiplicative effect so the diffuse has to be appropriate for this or else things start to look weird.

Cool stuff cashed! I think it would be much easier on the eyes if the skybox was a rats-style environment (like, the pile of bricks is made smaller and placed on the floor of a room). It's a tad colourful atm.

How does wallbanging work when the blocks are models? Maybe it would be worthwhile to create invisible brushes where the blocks are and have the blocks without collisions to get accurate wallbanging?

I hope you're going to make the ramps out of this sort of brick:

Agreed about the castle for sure

Definitely, try building the actual level with basic lego bricks and then model the assets like that.
