Why the hell I can't find the option to use this preview? I have all Orange box games installed and Source SDK updated but there's no such option in Hammer. Do I need to do something else?

Hey folks!

Here's some photos from the city that I live (Curitiba - Brazil).

Im using a Sony W50.

My window view:

Holy crap man! How many games you have?

Fergo

I don't know the english name of it, but its basically "chocolate powder":

200ml of milk and 3 tea spoons of "Toddy" ( in my case, I put almost 5 tea spoons... thats why its so dark )

Unfortunately, there's no way to put more work on this map. It's impossible to control the polygons on a map like this. It already beats 1800 w_polys, so any detail I add will have some serious cost to the performance.

Fergo

Already uploaded the map with the new skybox ;D

I've talked to Min0 and he's disposed to make some models for the map, so I can change some brushwork and hopefully get better r_speeds.

Fergo

Changed the skybox. What do you think?

Fergo

Thanks!

I'm gonna try some different skyboxes. I have an urban one here, but the sky color doesn't match the light_env color, so it probably needs some photoshop editing ( and as I said, I'm terrible at this )

I think your rooms are a way too big/long, forcing you to repeat the same furniture/objects a lot ( like in pics de_liquidwebx0005.jpg, de_liquidwebx0007.jpg, de_liquidwebx0010.jpg ).

Fergo

Thanks Quakis. I'm not so good at texturing ( to be honest, I'm terrible XD ), but I did the best I could =(

Anyway, I've updated the pictures at the first post, now "featuring" the ligh_env color suggested Min0 and fixed the connection between the stair steps. The environment is a loooot better now.

( hit F5 so you won't take the see the cached images )

The download link still the same ( with the new BSP, of course ).

Quote from Quakis

How are those steps connecting?

Haha, I didn't realized that LOL

So while I don't finish my last compiling, lets say that they're connected by an electromagnetic pulse or something like that

Fergo

Thanks! I'm recompiling the map with a new light_env color ( suggested by Min0 ). Sorry to post this at the "Finish Work" and recompile the map after this

Fergo

Hello there!

After a long time without messing around with Hammer, yesterday I decided to create a map for The Specialists. The theme? Construction yard.

The map is a bit heavy ( 1800 w_polys in some places ), but I don't plan to sacrifice the details of the level to decrease the polycount ( now days 1800 polys is easy to almost all video-cards ).

So here's the pictures followed by the download link. Hope you enjoy!

PICS:

Seeya!

Fergo

Nice job! I loved the "volumetric" lights ( like that one in front of the vehicle ).

Fergo~

Scary atmosphere

I've liked a lot, but i think that this fog would fit well on some singleplayer map or something, not on a multiplayer map ( snipers won't be useful ).

I looked at one picture and was gonna agree with you Fletch, but then I saw several others and god damn, a whole lot of the time she really isn't! Wierd face she has in a lot of photos...

Heh, agrred. Lucky that you've never heard her voice :X

It looks too plastic i think.

I've never touched a Zune in my life, but i think it needs more reflex ( like those ones you see on iPod pictures ), especially on the screen, because it seems to be just a texture with "Zune" logo.

But overall, its a nice render

Edit:

Now i saw the scanlines on the screen

Nice topic Min0.
