Also - I see non-custom textures!!

You need glasses then.

So... what's the final decision? Are we able to fix our entries or not?

Ok watched it, I would start the reel with 7th shoot you currently have, the huge abandoned house thing, then the first shoots and I would take out Battle Grounds stuff since they are diferent quality than the newest works, maybe somehow because of the stupid movements of players .

Good Luck.

Downloading... what company are You going to apply to?

anyone seen the new heavy guy video from pc games hardware yet?http://www.pcgameshardware.de/?article_id=601337

Christ, if VALVe would do a movie, it would be million times better than the incredibles or anything else!

damn warby thats awesome, great design! I guess models in source look best when they have lightmaps on them . That smoke looks weird though! It would be awesome if you could create rotating normal mapped smoke sprites lit with orange light from underneath, i'm not sure if that is even possible in source

Possible, however new source will have those awesome particles so ...

I guess we should be able to put some final touches in the maps before it gets pimped, ie. I would like to fix some stuff in tenements, some of issues which Reno mentioned for example.

Good it's cleared, otherwise there would be another "idiots arguing" thread created

Anyways, while I like Merkaba's idea I'd prefer still the good ol' small sp map concept.

The baked lighting really makes this great. Good work.

But could the map still have normal sp gameplay along the shitload of puzzles?

Small singleplayer map with cool physics puzzles.

This thread gots perfect name.

No need to rework anything, weren't the main problem the resolution? So don't You think that VALVe works on higher resolutions than those that we get ingame (like most artists does)? They surely do and they could easily switch to awp to 2048x1024 if players would complain it's "so blurry" ... no WTF here.

EDIT: VALVe tend to improve their titles even years after release, also keep in mind that CSS is not SP game, so players play it all over so I'm pretty damn sure that they would change the texture res if that'd be problem for whole lot of css players.

Also, I guess You should both calm down tbh.

Just addition: If some CSS gun skins (ie AWP) would really be an issue for players, VALVe would have changed them arleady so I guess players doesn't care too much about it, or haven't noticed the diference.

Thanks for the comment ReNo, these are the pending issues I want to fix in _v2 since I pretty much rushed some thing at the end, I will surely consider all of Your thoughts. Thanks

We had a barrel fight on Northfacility

They undoubtedly had a reason for that to happen, don't call VALVe unprofessional please.

If we're going for a "scene" contest, I'd like to be able to include custom content, since this would be a scene after all, nothing playable, if someone has a really good idea he can make a better one with stock assets than the guy who could use custom assets. The theme, could be some part of hl2, like coast, raven or something like that, but as a beauty scene this time .

Orange battle? I'm not sure.

Then we would need be able to use custom content.
