i love that new one. do you have a pic from the movie to see where it came from?

There aren't good pictures of this one:

I added a few changes, the original has no ladder, but has a resemblance I think. This building has a story, it was the original cantina from A fistful of dollars reconverted for the second movie. I talk as a spaghetti western freak, isn't it?

you might want to dirty up the windows a bit. they seem to reflective

Yes, but that's a bug I think. Watch at the side picture, the same material is not so reflective, I'd like to know what happens there.

Another one more, the original is a building that I like especially, maybe it's the roof top:

The only thing I can say is that the green looks a little out of place, mabye a little too light?

Yes, you are right, the purpose was to make it dark green, with a varnished layer, and a bit aged like the rest of the building. I made another version:

There also can be seen the wood wall normal map, look at the transition between light and shadow.

great wood materials!

thx hessi, but there are 3 planks materials from cs_militia. I modified them to look close as possible to the original building. The wood planks normal map was modeled.

Hows the mod coming along?

We are in a sweet moment now Schmung. Most of the main positions are filled, though we are a small team, so always looking for more people. The mod is in the right track with 8 or 9 weapons fully working (including a throwable knife ), 2 maps done, other 2 near completion, and 3 more in the making. The character modeling and coding side are a bit behind, but now there are 2 guys on it. I'll should add that we even had 3 music composers, very talented guys, including Duncan Watts (now he is working on several AAA projects). He made the music for Presidio.

My two main guidelines always are performance and fun, so I hope this is no an exception. I'm taking care with models (almost all the expensive details are models), using several LOD's, map layout was made with overdraw in mind, etc. Just hope Valve let non oficial mods use its new prop static lighting system, that would be great for this map.

Here are 3 new buildings, and the best is yet to come I think After this comes the big Gold Coin Palace Hotel and the train station (I'm a train fan), both from Once Upon a Time in the West.
