Excellent stuff Blaz, especially the updated palm trees.
I'd go nuts if you add coconuts.

Great work, Warby. I especially love the waterfall.
Too bad the hdr blooming effect pounds like a madman, it hurts my brains.
I hope there will be a _final2

There was a brilliant movie once in which they killed zombies with a lawn mower. Make sure you'll use that idea and your mod will be gold.

Buy a Zalman graphics card cooler too, because my 6800 sounds like it's vacuum cleaning the room.

Since you can't see the EOT anymore without registering, it means he joined us for serious stuff. Respect!

I wonder whether optical illusion plays a part. I mean, you're looking at thousands of dots, that's gotta do some funky stuff with your brains.
Quote from ZackerBtw. what are your screen settings?
It's hard to compare brightness, unless you have a hardware monitor calibrator. It can measure the brightness/luminance.
I'm running at 100 cd/m2, 6500 Kelvin color temperature and 2,2 gamma. 100~120 cd/m2 is about the maximum a CRT monitor can come up with.
Most modern TFT monitors have a luminance of 250~500 cd/m2! I even had to reduce the brightness of my graphics card to achieve CRT standards.
Too bad the brightness is being used in marketing. Manufacturers know that people drool at high specs but in this case it's just plain silly.
Who wants to look at stadium lights?

I guess the age and the way your brains works matters. This flickering and moving stuff* seem to happen to me only with flat bright smooth surfaces. Detailed surfaces, virtual or in nature, are always easy on the eyes. The brightness and color temperature also seem to matter because many people, including me, find it e.g. more comfortable to read from paper then from a computer screen.
* = I'm not talking about the "hello internets" snowflakes!

Hi,
I've been using TFT's for several years now and I loved them in the beginning but it looks like I'm becoming sensitive to fluorescent light.
Areas of the same color look very unstable, but detailed photos or videos are easy on the eyes.
I found a nice article that covers this discomfort:
Introduction:
QuoteAs soon as I heard about LCD displays, and even more after seeing some flat panel monitors at computer shows, I became a fan of this technology. As a computer user sitting in front of a monitor for more hours than the sun shines in the sky, I was very happy that I would soon be able to enjoy a flicker-free and radiation-free alternative to bulky and power-hungry cathode ray tube monitors. That was until I tried them, beginning a story of hard to describe discomfort and an apparently vague relationship with existing research involving factors such as fluorescent light, flickering, lighting, glare, contrasts and patterns. I now refer to this as "LCD Syndrome".

Really isnt noticable unless you stop and stare at it.
Dude, it's booze.
I also agree you should model the bottles. You're using a nice hl1 trick now.

I'd expect a "bow-bridge" in a park, not in an industrial area. I wouldn't picnic over there.

You forgot to add classic borders on the textures.
Nice map.

I tried the beta, I couldn't even open existing map files, I refreshed the sdk content and now hammer 4.0 is running fine again.
