guys, i think hes just being silly.

We've had this all before, I think that Campaignjunkie is gay, if that's the case it's pretty dumb to post a screenshot with that kind of stuff on it, you don't see anyone heterosexual posting screenshots with windows that read "Double D divas" on or whatever...

Yeah, it seemed pretty deliberate. I mean, maybe I am in the minority when it comes to not watching porn when I map.

Gay sex? Gaytube?

im confused, I saw that as well.

I like the planet with the disc, because its nice and subtle, and just fits the atmosphere better (with the layer of cloud/fog on it).

Read that like it's the bible, only THEN start fucking around with bakings! otherwise you'll waste your time with trial and errors and headaches that can be avoided if you give it the proper study.

You are the absolute best when it comes to finding tutorials. Do you have like a huge library of these? I just recently started building a bookmark folder that now have so many tutorials that you have recommended, that I actually need to start organizing it into sections.

Awesome! Thanks for the link.

You are awesome! Bookmarked all of them, thanks a bunch!

Hey guys,

Mainly, I have been just doing level design with the Source engine and have recently started playing with the UDK. However, I would like to give texturing a try, and my only experience with it has been creating tileable environment textures from a photo source (using clone, sharpen and offset, really basic). I would like to try re-texturing a CS:S player model, but I am having trouble getting started. I am going to try to change the GSG9 model to use an ACUPAT texture, so I have saved some references and now I need to get started on the diffuse. So I guess my question is, do any of you know any particularly useful tutorials about getting started with cloth texturing, or just texturing in general?

Thanks in advance,

Dan

I like what I see. I just can't understand how you guys keep on grid. My 3DS Max just goes off grid all the time and thus I have been having hardtime learning the program when I have used Hammer with awesome grid snapping.

I know exactly what you mean. Coming from Hammer, I expect everything to snap perfectly.

if anyone want to try you can find it by searching "volcanic elevation" at battle.net/sc2 custom map browser. and if you do, please tell me what you think.

Very cool! How did you go about doing the mirroring? I am thinking of working on an SC2 map myself, but I am wondering if there is an easy way to mirror sides, or if you just have to do it by eye.

Anyways, I have been working on my lighting techniques with the Source Engine. I am trying a method using a desaturated 'light' entity supplemented with a darker more saturated 'light_spot'. I think it creates a pretty nice effect. In the screenshot below, I have a desaturated yellow light, with a darker orange spotlight.

Thoughts on how I can improve it?

Quote from ultradr3mer

for sure i did all my stuf in blender...but the colors indicate nothing for now the vertical ones are blue and the lifted yellow, the portals didnt work on them because they dont work on models in general. now i took a func_brush and parented them on to the models, wich means that it works now.

yeah im trying to learn blender myself to work on an indie project, just trying to get used to it. its very cool to see what great stuff people can make with it. how long have you been using blender?

Nice stuff, just bookmarked them. I gotta start using 3D Studio Max more.

hi5. didn't even register in my head that he was talking about hammer.

You are missing two quotation marks, but you shouldn't even need that line in the first place. Just removed that line and you should be fine.

Wow that projected texture thing looks amazing. Unfortunately the mod that this is for is on the ep1 engine. I agree with all your constructive criticisms. Thank you for that, looks like I have work to do (once I fix my computer).
