Mazy you'r wrong about the Unreal portals (atleast if this vid is correct)http://%7boption%7d

also ... wasnt there an official ut98 1on1 dm map where you could drop down infinitly long and allways still come across your enemy ?! i was allways wondering how they did that now i know

and i was talking to snipamaster

iam not sure what exactly you mean but most likely

f3 -> edit polygons -> merge vertices you candot that while havign edges or face selected too

i build a tree based on hessos tutorial hooray

before you ask yes eventualy they are not going to grow rigth out of the concrete and stones

i tryed to use the map joiner with a simple test map ( a street and some random rushes on one end and in the other file on the other end ) and got a fatal error trying to JOIN them but there was no text in the error dialog

open sourcing the texture and stuff seams like the logical next step i doubt they deleted all their hl1 content maybe some realy talentet peeps finish it than or at least build a halfway playable version so that peopel can look at the pretty artwork even if its hl1

i am sure it will work on anything that has physics/collision but it wont look as slick as on one large bsp face since the quad with the render to texture/stancil buffer render on it will like hang in the air if you hit somthing none large/flat

in prey the portals just float freely in the room most of the time

woah thats awsome love the style the trailer is bitchin too

banjo smiley digs the new style aswell he told me

ha check out the news paper on screenshot 1 at the very bottom left how the z buffer writes it above the railing details .... why arnt both alpha test ?! materials or at least one of them ?!

yeah you git some nice artowrk on your wbepage i bet you find some great artists to help you

banjo smiley hes my friend

Quote from Meotwister

Hey Warby, the first thing you pointed out is actually two brushes overlapping one another. Simple fix. . . Move ONE.

i know that and it shouldnt happen in any map ever ... but a csg algorythem should be able to fix that easily

i so know this

intellgent map merger that sounds perfeckt for what hessi and i are planning

just make the wires from the prop a bit shorter or raise that garage level by abot 16 units

of course you could argue that its outside the level and sort of doesnt require that much detail but you can see that its coming from nowhere from within the level thats how i found it

is that a technical limitation of the engine not being able to make the cool "fersnel-accuret updating reflection" if the water is in the sky and not in the world ?! well at least i would asume they would suport cubemaps an not sphericle envmaps made of one picture.

i hope you can fix all these thigns for the final release

overall i had a blast palying this map and i will keep playing it

banjo smiley hes the best !

this is hot stuff i found a couple of graphicle glitches that i made screenshots of but iam too tired rigth now to upload and post em first thign in the morning i promise

i didnt fully understand the layout but it was a blast to play none the less ( even just with bots ) BANJO SMILEY FOR THE WIN !

my coworker scott duquette made these really sweet paint overs and earlyer or later i want to adopt everythign he suggested:

i reallly liked te look of the red building but now that i look closer it looks more like wooden sleds than actual red brick ... so that needs to et worked on ( just like everything ^^)

the giant stone texture is a place holder there ssupossed to be awater fall there

i love the water what do you dislike about it ... the color ? (can you effeckt hat in hl2 ?!)

no i think you DO see the whole picture

the maps setting is defnitly fantasy its inspired by the homeworld in beyond good and evil called hillys but now ubi used exclusivly handpainted textures i dont have the time for that unfortunatly so iam kind of sitting between the chairs so my only choice is probably to drop beyond good and evil and go for all out real (which is gonna be alot of work)

but the zigazag stairs are defnitly gonna stay

Quote from Schmung

Yah, 'tis rather schizophrenic and some bits (like that zigzag ramp) just don't make much sense.

it doesnt have to make sense it just has to be cute and cosy
