(Source 2) Porto - Portugal

[-HP-]

Hey guys,

Finally got around to make a short breakdown of the Source 2 scene I made a while ago. I made sure I took a few WIP screenshots as I worked on it, so I could do a thorough breakdown later on, so here you have it.
This engine is really fun to work with, you can model nearly everything in editor, just like you could back in the BSP era, I really hope to see more engines (specifically Unity/Unreal) follow suit, as removing the need to use so many third party apps from your workflow really makes making maps a lot more fun.

 

(Had to divide it into two parts, as ArtStation limits the amount of characters per post.)

Posted the WIPs on our discord, never on the actual forum though. I did this during those weird months of hard lockdown last year, thank god I had a new toy to distract me during those times man. I wanted to wait until I had time to write up a breakdown before putting it here.

Foda-se, this is great.

I wanted to document my lighting process, so I recorded myself doing that night scene. It's sorta long (3.5 hours) but I hope it helps someone. Plus, it's free so you can't say uncle HP has never done anything for you

 

 

I actually learned a lot making this. One thing is to never narrate these things at 1am, I was a bit too whispery.

I really like this version of the scene, the night lighting really pops. Going to watch the whole series, but damn you went ham! These are long af

So fucking good! Really fun to read the breakdown, I love how instead of a step by step, it's just a journal of the journey. Looking forward to watching the night lighting tutorial

I played around in it, and it was really fun! Not to mention, that the graphics were beautiful!

Wonderful!
