[CS:GO] ar_blocks WIP

[cashed]

Fooling around with an idea for a good blocks map hehe. Going to be a mix of brush and models.

That looks really inventive - are those lego bricks models or brushwork? Looking great though, can't wait to see the finished result!

[cashed]

they are models

You should add trigger_hurt on the legoblocks to make it more realistic.

Neat! Are you colouring the models with tint or separate skins?

[cashed]

Haven't tried the tint yet, but I don't know if source lets you with a diffuse. Right now I have 2 models with skingroups on them.

dem polys (low poly versions)

You can indeed, static props have a Color RGB field You can also mask where the tint is applied. 

Great idea for outside of the play area.

@spence I'll fool around with that soon

 

Runs okay on my machine so far

Haha cool stuff

Where can I find info about this masking? I guess somewhere on the wiki, but I couldn't find it.

Really sweet colors and idea! It reminds me of a map I was working on two years ago.

There is a little information here: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/$blendtintbybasealpha

I think the best practical example however is the L4D2 vehicle sheet. The tint has a multiplicative effect so the diffuse has to be appropriate for this or else things start to look weird.
