im looking for some sites that show how to make tree models. I use 3ds max 7 . Do any of you have any? or any types of advice or knowledge u would like to share.

can you show a picture of where the quadratic value is caus............you lost me with that word

*slap*

this is for hl2 engine

ok i wanted to light up my map a lil bit but since its a 3d sky box any light entity lights up a huge portion of the map. i have tried playing with just using very tiny light_spots that turned out ok but what i would really like to know is how to illuminate my street post models shown here.

im sure there is a line of code to put in the vmt file. I put "$selfillum" 3 for my buildings vmt files to get the windo effect but i tried it on my model and it didnt' work. any suggestions?

ill post a picture of my 3d sky box when i finish with it thanks for your help. by the way that de_halla map you made was the pimp shit loved it. i always wanted to see it converted to source.

hey philip thanks for all your help. i got my alpha channel working and that vmt command really helped thanks a bunch .

i was stateing usually how i create a alpha channel i dont need to make it see through i just want my windows on certian parts to illuminate . and im not sure how to do it. is there a proper way to creat an alpha channel? in photoshop cs.

sry m8s i ment to say hl2

when i do an alpha channel the way i know its usually to make a see through layer and in that case when i create it its red. is there another alpha channel that im not familiar with or do i just use the red one and change the levels to make the detialed spots dark red and the other spots just delet?

how do i get it so my texture will be illuminated even if its very dark like night time.im sure its a combination between somthing in photo shop and a vmt file but im not sure what and i don't know where to find out. if anyone has any info let me know.

i keep getting amazed at those buildings you make.... did you texture them yourself?

Quote from ginsengavenger

the size of the tape-bay looks like it's meant for VHS tapes but it says DVD on it?

yeah that was brought to my attention before. like all of my models i make them right before i go to be ... this is usually a range from 2am to 5am . I am usually very tired and don't notice simple thigns like that until the next day but i will fix.

also on the note of the x shaped bars. Now that you have mentioned it i do notice that but , that is a cs prop that im using. I think i might have it facing the wrong way. I shall check when i get my editor up and running

yes i was thinking about doing this but i was doing it in a diff way and it didn't turn out right. but i think i will go back and manually add shadow.
