Honestly, I would avoid remakes. I've went down this road many time. Making your own map is the best way to improve your design skills and tbh isn't as tenuous as you might think. Iteration is key and quite frankly, remakes really hold this back.

Blockout -> Test -> Iterate -> Test -> Iterate -> Test -> Finalize -> Ship

The more you do these steps the more efficient and better you become.

If you like certain aspects of russka, why not implement iterations into your own designs?

On a side note, who's to say Brute isn't working on Russka? The only issues he's had about remakes are with FMPONE, still worth a shot to try and contact him.

Oooo Wonder what project

That's a risk in all pc games. Hitting the highest mark is better than only going half way.

If you're using it for Source, don't forget to grab Yanzl's PBR to Source shader in case you haven't already

I am using it!

Happy new year and a safe and successful year to all!

Sorry to hear about the pain you've gone through. But like many have said its past pain.

I've listened to this a lot when I went through breakups.

Where's the damn Operation 8

Made an iso and got it reinstalled. I'm lucky to have all my data on other drives and its a matter of reinstalling apps. I came over from win7 so a clean install is probably for the best.

Computer bricked after win10 auto update

Tried restore point and backup copies to no avail. Had even more trouble creating a USB bootloader, but got that going and trying again to fix.

One thing people tend to forget is valve looks at old maps as well. Everyone is compiling lists of the latest submissions

Ever since CSS Inferno, banana has been crap. As the only direct path to B for Ts, it is the tightest choke. The pillars always pissed me off.

are you using a custom Color Correction?

My guess would be that it gets payments like operations still. FMPONE still updates it. If Valve bought it, they would be doing them themselves.

Valve don't buy maps. This is the purpose of the workshop and operations. Essentially, when you create work in hammer it is owned by Valve. When chosen for an operation they give a percentage of the "pass".

Prior they would purchase the "IP" from the creator/s. ie. Mirage

Ubisoft wont let me look at your site for Spam reasons

Planets are quite similar in a lot of cases. I can see something like this for the Salt flats in Bolivia

You can use both. You just need to export the right textures and models after. (csgo supports fbx)

Remember Source only uses Diffuse, Specular, Normal. (All other params like phong are added) So using the PBR settings isn't quite useful. I believe standard works fine, but you don't get the nice parallax like you do with the PBR shader.

I've made a few textures in SD and brought them into Source. Just how you put in the example. You're basically not using Photoshop and instead using SD

I'd like them to implement a stair IK clip brush. where it doesnt look like the character is floating, his feet match the stairs (somewhat) and the transition is smooth.

@RadimaX thanks for the find. was reducing materials and derped on a couple. Compile as started to fix this
