I myself am not a fan of CM but whining over a free mod is just stupid.
I agree, the models look kind of weird but it's not worth spamming his mailbox over.
I think this guy just made it Non-public so people would take back what they said, although other people will just say good riddance.
What's the point in this
Why does this guy care if people hate his mod that's no reason to make it non-public
haha what a whiny twat

he wants our sympathy
Here's a metaphor:
I'm selling lemonade, everyone is saying it's too sweet. I'm going to stop making lemonade because they don't like it.
Solution: Keep making lemonade but keep refining the recipe until they like it.
Ignoring constructive criticism is the wrong way to improve a mod.
And nothing of value was lost

I fucking hate when people say this. You don't have to be a film director to call a movie shitty, you don't have to be a best-selling author to call a book terrible, you don't have to be a professional modeler to say that shit looks ugly.

Not everybody hated it.
Just some moron who didn't like his OPTIONALS models did.
If you didn't like these models, don't use it, or don't play the fucking mod already.

Stop with this kind of argument, it's getting overrated and stupid now.
[QUOTE=Thomo;24460373]Oh. This mod, where every texture is 5048x5048 and it's around 10GB[/QUOTE]
4096^2 :eng101:
Could someone explain more what this means, does it mean that he won't release any more updates or...?
he doesnt even make his own models.
Its sad seeing a beautiful mod gone because of 5 year old kids who cant see a girl boob.

Excuse me if a mod must have such stereotypical characters ("Alyx fantasm" by example) to be "beautiful", I don't know what's wrong with you.

I prefer mostly the original Alyx from Valve. I don't want an jiggle-boob woman like in FakeFactory mod.

I am not at all surprised to see from you're profile that you're 14 years old.
Get over it, respect the character of Alyx, don't just think of her as another sex object.

No my friend.
Cinematic Mod is beautiful because all the enhancements that he ALONE did to HL2 and its episodes: Dynamic Shadows, more rich enviromnents, enhanced lightning, dynamic soundtrack, ....
In case you dont know, a lot of hard work was put into all those things, so its kind to say him a very big THANKS instead of always complaining and complaining about things that can be disabled by a couple of clicks.

EUEEHEE WOMENS RIGHTS GUYS.
That post is just you having a huge vagina, it reminds me of what furfags say when they are like RESPECT CHARACTER GUYS.

IT CAN BE DISABLED
Can you understand these 4 simple words?
[QUOTE=95Navigator;24463762]No my friend.
Dynamic Shadows[/QUOTE]
It's the only point I am kinda agree with you, even though it may be not very difficult to port the new Source Engine over the old one in HL2.
[QUOTE=95Navigator;24463762] more rich enviromnents[/QUOTE]

Lol.
[QUOTE=95Navigator;24463762]enhanced lightning[/QUOTE]
Same point as dynamic shadows
[QUOTE=95Navigator;24463762]dynamic soundtrack[/quote]
Yeah, ripped off from many soundtracks is really something "beautiful"

[QUOTE=Lemonator;24463764]EUEEHEE WOMENS RIGHTS GUYS.[/QUOTE]
Nope, but at least, you must respect an fictional character. If the Smurfs are blue and tiny, respect these facts, by example. Same thing should be in this mod

Doesn't mean we can't tell over the author to stop his fantasm about Alyx (or any other character in his mod)
I have to agree with you on the soundtrack, though.
About the Alyx model: he even mentioned that was working on a more close to the original Alyx model.
So, why all the complaints, if we had just to wait for it (the model)?
Aw man. I actually kinda liked Cinematic Mod.
Sure, the models were shitty and didn't really fit, all that. But I enjoyed the changes he made to the maps and the music he put in.
After so many playthroughs of vanilla HL2, they were welcome changes.
Brilliant strategy.
[QUOTE=PelPix123;24465168]Because he stole the (copyrighted) model from somewhere else. The textures are just the valve textures with a filter over them. The maps were decompiled to make these changes (which is a breach of the EULA [I]and[/I] illegal.) He also created a separate hl2 exe and set of dlls to run all of "his" shitty, oversized content. That's modification of closed code, which is illegal as well.[/QUOTE]
I think hes conscient of those thing, he said FakeFactory was never a community project, we only made it to learn skills.
I don't see how you can learn anything by stealing bunch of models and calling them your own

Im talking about coding things.
Implementing dynamic shadows and things like that.
great now let's have a gigantic feast with lots of wine and beautiful women
i'm not really sure why you're all caring about this. guy makes shitty mod, people tell him it's shitty, he takes it down. what's the problem there?????
It's about damn time that shitfest went bye-bye.
Navigator, if you love this mod so much, just e-mail FF for updated versions.
