Can you upload your vmf on another website please ? I'm sorry but mediafire doesn't work here, i don't know why ...

It's not about doing your work, it's just in order to be able to see in a easier way the optimisation on your map.

Have you tried to func_detail your brushes that aren't floor/wall/ceilings ?

I mean ...

WTF ?

Can you share with us a vmf ?

Yeah i think most people don't think about optimizing the lightmaps as Cashed say.

If you have a huge 3Dskybox, don't hesitate to use a 128 or 256 lightmap because you'll not get beautiful shadows anyway.

I had a project for school in which i had to choose a picture of my choice (movie poster, cover album, a random picture ... whatever), and change the main character(s) on it with a lego character.

So of course, i chose this Half-Life 2 : Episode One wallpaper :

And made that :

I post it here because i decided to make a 3D model, like that :

And i quickly made a basic material, and configured a phong + spec so that it looks like plastic (on CS:GO) :

So yeah, then i integrated a front screenshot of it in the wallpaper and adjusted it quickly and it works just fine

(I'm in engineering school so, even if it could be a better integration, it's going to be better than the average work people will do, i think (because people here don't know anything about aesthetic and shit ^^))

great update, i really like how train plays now, they way Terrorists get to A is way better.

Also, a friend of mine noticed during the update the downloading of those files :

especially "Vertexlit_and_unlit_generic_bump..." (which was a problem before, if you wanted to have a model with phong (which needs a bump) you were only able to get a crappy lighting (with its origin only, that defines the lighting for the whole model).
It seems that we can finally use models with a bump AND a vertex based lighting, which is nice

For example :

(my example isn't that great to show the thing, i'm sure we can do better)

Thank you guys

I think i've finished the mesh and the UV. I still have to work on the materials but i'm very glad with what i have already and i wanted to show you that :

Hello, this is my first post here (3D model section)

I've started 2 days ago to make my first vehicle, i'm pretty happy with the beginning (i'm still a beginner at this, i'm more used to work with hammer).

The original car :

It's for my map cs_opera, i think it will bring a lot of 1970' in it (it is supposed to take place in 1974 or something like that). The DS was at that time the favorite car of brigands !

whooo hoo !!!

So great, i'm really glad to see these maps. I like all of them, i didn't expect Facade to be in, but that's great, TopHattWaffle deserve it (at least for all the help he brings to the community)

Congratulations guys

Quote from Squad

One is planned tommorow

This is too far from now. Please release this beauty on the workshop immediately.

Oh yeahhhhhhh

i love it it's so cool, i'll use it for sure !!!

Thanks a lot tomm

But ... what is the tournament ?

Which organization is doing it ?

Maybe you "work for one of the largest CSGO platforms and professional tournament organizers", but what is it ?

And yes, at least few months are needed

xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

I tried it like 2 days ago, i liked the idea it's nice.

The main problem for me was that i didn't always know where i had to go (the best example is the bombsite B of Inferno, i had to go through the whole area in noclip mode to see where you wanted me to go). So just add arrows or spots to show people exactly where the need to go to continue. Another problem is that it's too linear :

• If you have succeeded a level, you can't redo it to really train yourself on it
• You can't go back to other levels
• You can't skip levels : for example the level 6 is almost impossible for 99% of players, it's incredibly hard to do it (or maybe i'm missing something ?)
• At the end, you can't go back to the beginning if i remember (which could be cool, for example you could try to do the map as many times as you can do in 5 minutes for example).

Otherwise it's nice and i like the choices you've made about the parts of the maps.

In terms of graphics, maybe you could do something a bit more futuristic ? Like training rooms of Titanfall for example or Portal test chambers or something just grey. Because dev textures are a bit ugly and doesn't really belong here

Try to use the command mat_drawgray 1, it remplaces all the textures with a medium grey texture :

EDIT : i just noticed that you've updated your map since so, some of my comments are already fixed.

CSGO needs the recent lightmap system for models made for TF2 ...

http://forums.tf2maps.net/showthread.php?t=23288

it's one of the most famous custom map from CS 1.6 and CS:Source. The community have been waiting for its remake on GO for 3 years and it finally released.

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=312199550

The main issue is that the textures are really sharp and ... ugly, i really don't like them. The lighting is buggy because there are 2 light_environments entities in the map but with different configurations (brightness, angles and pitch), so the lightmap calculated by RAD differs from the cascade shadows and crazy bugs happen, such as :

I can't believe that after 2 - 3 years of work you can release a beta with this kind of "bug". Also the textures are most of the time applied badly and quickly, he really should have accepted all the help people have proposed him...

Is that true ? func_vehicle is back ?!

Good guy spherix !

People already mentioned those games before but I must say that Half-Life 2 (especialy the episode 2) is still my favorite game in terms of world and characters. Dishonored and Alan Wake have also been mentioned as incredible games with huge atmosphere.

There are some Nintendo DS games that were also awesome. Of course, the 2 best games of the console :

Super Mario 64 DS with its great castle and all the levels that, i'm pretty sure of that, most of us remember them almost perfectly. Nostalgia !

Metroid Prime : Hunters for the same reason, the universe and the atmosphere was just perfect, i will never forget those games.

There was also a great game named Hotel Dusk : Room 215 with a nice way to draw the characters, it made them much more believable than in any game i have played before

I fell in love with this hotel and the characters, i loved it

There is also other amazing PC games like Mafia 2, even if it isn't really an original story i loved it and the characters were really well-made.

Dear Esther was absolutely incredible, it's the most immersive "game" i've ever played

Stalker Shadow of Chernobyl was also insane in terms of universe, I still get chills!

And finally, i'm currently playing L.A. Noire, and it's pretty cool The world isn't as good as the Mafia 2 one, but i really love the tech they have made for the facial animations, it's really amusing to discover any new character in the game

Congratulation rzl, you've made a great job as usual, i'm sure people will be glad to re-watch the playtest with the demo records.

And nice ideas for a hybrid casual/competitive gamemode
