What I'm Working On

[Rolling101]

I have some questions about the textures in this map:

 

Do you use VTEX for making the VTF files and make the VMT file by yourself or do you just use VTF Edit for this?

How do you go about making sure that the white walls aren't just plain white and boring? (I thought I saw the video had some glossy stuff to it to make it shiny and you added some decals too)

[FMPONE]

I use photoshop to make the textures, and edit the .vmts in vtf edit, I guess that's what it's called, it's basically just notepad tho. How to make white walls more interesting is to use normal maps, vtf files referenced in the vmt. Season uses normal maps a lot to give the plain modern surfaces some tangible depth. Obviously it's more successful some places than others right now.

I found this bug earlier today on de_season. If you crouch in the position where i am on the screenshot, the texture in the mid entrance to B disappears. (2nd screenshot shows the bug)

 

 

 

BTW: What's your progess on de_grace and the other mysterious map you mentioned in the first post?

My specs, just in case: C2D e6750; Nvidia 260GTS; Wxp; 4GB ram.

 

Btw, any plan on using some of those futuristic de_train props? some fit and might be helpful in order to redudce the filesize (I saw a thread you were discussing about reducing it).

Cool, I've just been there in October. Let me know if you need somebody to tell you that the level's alleys are still too wide and there are not enough stairs and donkeys to match the real Santorini experience.
