updated the building -redesigned the exterior -replaced the windows (if you're part of texture collab, you can find it in my folder) -added lights -staircase redesigned -cubemaps [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/1083393438854265769/DD14D61026DCDF76CE8254C17F4C955E8A6F439C/[/t] [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/1083393438854244043/B69399C3A68D4A4F67A8B3F57FAE1434C5681C16/[/t] [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/1083393438854232628/B1EA6D2C60D47B9BE0498021414767DFFE9D1D5D/[/t] [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/1083393438854279537/684FD6E4E17C22EEBC2B268A829E9B8639093924/[/t]

I started making an elementary school but, I'll never release it because I hate most of the buildings so I figured I'd show you guys.

[QUOTE=Anthracite;40770497]an animated model would work, and place an invisible water brush under it.[/QUOTE] You can use something like houdini or 3DS Max to render out a couple plains of simulated water, then bake it with a vertex animation and a refract VMT (and a few other shaders on the other planes of water)

[QUOTE=JJD;40775091]I started making an elementary school but, I'll never release it because I hate most of the buildings so I figured I'd show you guys. [/QUOTE] Is that furniture all made of brushes, or models?

[QUOTE=Stiveno;40776367]Is that furniture all made of brushes, or models?[/QUOTE] Models. A few of the larger ones without beveled edges are brushes.

[QUOTE=Azzator;40767260]I added this sort of junction with signs and shit [thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/13540830642081628378_2013-05-25_00001.png[/thumb] [thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/13540830642081628378_2013-05-25_00002.png[/thumb] [thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/13540830642081628378_2013-05-25_00003.png[/thumb] [thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/13540830642081628378_2013-05-25_00004.png[/thumb] the signs will most likely be placeholders, and I haven't got around to finishing some of the buildings. also i dont know how to write in cyrillic so i just put some random letters together :v:[/QUOTE] If you had have wrote "цемент" [del]you would've spelt cement in cyrillic.[/del] you would have cement in Russian.

[QUOTE=JJD;40775091]I started making an elementary school but, I'll never release it because I hate most of the buildings so I figured I'd show you guys. -pics-[/QUOTE] I like the simplicity of the buildings and the elegant use of wood, but I feel like it's a bit empty and too simplistic at times. Maybe try to add some decals that could spice up the area a bit or focus on some more complex geometry/models/textures? Looks good though! --- Also, this isn't mapping related, but if anyone here needs some music for a mod or something of the likes, send me a message. I'm always looking for some practice.

Made a small clothing store for a small plaza/out door mall type thing Exterior [img]http://i.imgur.com/xT7L4qI.jpg[/img] Interior [img]http://i.imgur.com/zwW6D2K.jpg[/img] CC please :)

Looks nice, perhaps you should make those metal awnings hanging over the doors slightly less thick and create trims for the windows as they don't appear to have any.

I can only suggest that you give it some more detail (piping or girders?) so it'll look a little less empty. [editline]May 26, 2013[/editline] oh crap king of the page. no content sorry :v:

Any critique for this bomb/defuse map layout that I've been working on?

Anyone has a clue what [url=https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Monster_generic]this thing[/url] is/does ?

[QUOTE=Zay333;40788414]Anyone has a clue what [url=https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Monster_generic]this thing[/url] is/does ?[/QUOTE] It's just a broken entity probably carried over from HL1.

I think it was used back in the day of hl1 to place model based stuff around the level.

[I]This is an old test map of mine[/I] I wanted to test out the concept of recreating something from blueprints just to see how it would look, in this case a Pullman coach for a narrow gauge railroad.

What the fuck is going on [img]http://i.imgur.com/teR4BCo.jpg[/img] [editline]26th May 2013[/editline] This is on a -final compile, smoothing groups are enabled here, luxels are small enough and aligned etc

However it does look a bit strange to have bricks making up round columns.

Everything outside is a part of the 3d skybox which holds its own fog. Only downside is that having the main map see itself through the windows won't look as good.
