yeah i saw that one, but roads don't really look like that
for one, it's way too small and street corners will look odd when stretched

Well that is bad tutorial, too tight lanes and curves.

[QUOTE=grabbin pills?;44400025]Are those all custom road textures or a part of CSGO or a mix?[/QUOTE]

He made the textures for the roads in this thread so I imagine its custom. Regardless how would I go about taking textures from games like L4D2 and CS:GO? I have GCFscape but I can't find the pak files.

It could also be put in maps and if the map gets popular the creator can access the place on the servers other people own. :v:

Create a torus and remove the bottom half to get that curve. Then make some walls that line up with the curve. The inward extrusion near the top of the windows might be difficult, even impossible, with hammer.

This happened with a lot of RP maps back when adding an admin room was still popular amongst the underaged userbase of the game. Anyone who knew how to get into it could fuck the entire game for everyone very easily depending on what sort of things the mapper put into it.

Hey what does it mean when I'm running into "Engine hunk overflow!" on map load.
Have to use r_hunkalloclightmaps 0
-edit- "This error also occurs if you have multiple lights hitting a the same brush face in multiple locations of your map."

The style I think is obviously remnant of the combine aesthetic and I'm also citing influence from the somewhat metal architecture style known as brutal-ism.

Or "Windows are a structural weakness, geth do not use them"

I never heard of Brutalist architecture until now, I Googled it and found so many useful reference images :3

oh jesus christ don't make anything with brutalist architecture as a reference, I still don't understand why the architects going for that style haven't been hunted down and shot

it's fucking hideous

So if someone faithfully recreated this building in Source you wouldn't be impressed? I wouldn't want to live next to it in real life but designing maps based on real architectural references will usually give better results than just creating a generic modern buildings from imagination or memory.

Brutalist architecture looks awful on it's own, but depending on the materials used I think it actually looks pretty good in and amongst foliage.

What are you talking about? Brutalism is all about turning raw concrete into beauty. It was it's own, unique charm. Whereas other styles strive to be refined ladies, brutalism wants to transmit power and strength.

Look at this:

That's the Bangladesh parliament, which looks more like the perfect fortress for an evil Overlord, the John P. Robarts Library in the University of Toronto...

...the "Pentagonito", the headquarters of the Peruvian military and the Torres Blancas, in Madrid.

Really, there's lots of inspiration in brutalism. It doesn't wants to be pretty and shiny, it wants to be strong and last centuries. Pretty cool.
