Haha do you mean HL2 versions of Xen textures?

st0lve:

Yea that's what I'm trying to do.

So far it looks like my best method is Clouds -> Find Edges

Sa74n:

Wow that's amazing for HL1.

Did you make that all yourself?

Does anyone have an idea as to how the Xen textures were first made? Any guesses?

Anyone know a website that I could look for information on?

These are the types I am interested in remaking:

Thanks for the help!

I dug around in XSI and found Property\Render Map

It looks like this is what I need.

What's the name of the function that you use to do that?

I'm making it in the XSI Mod Tool and exporting it to Half-Life 2

That example model is from HL2.

What im asking is if i can save the lighting into the texture so the model appears to light itself in game.

Models in Half-Life 2 are vertex lit so it would look and work a lot better to have the lighting in the texture.

Is there any easy way to apply lighting to a model texture besides trying to paint it in Photoshop?

Example:

The orange light is textured on.
