Alchestbreach Plays Cinematic Mod - General

[video=youtube;IWXVYC-8LGc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWXVYC-8LGc[/video] If you guys don't know who Alchestbreach is, you should, he's a pretty... special youtuber that does videos mostly about Fallout New Vegas mods, but since those have been running low recently he's turned to other games for mods. Oh god this will be good.

Fakefactory would be good if it wasnt for the absolutely fucking terrible character models.

FakeFactory is the ultimate example of high polygon counts not meaning shit.

[QUOTE=Fatfatfatty;46792722]Fakefactory would be good if it wasnt for the absolutely fucking terrible character models.[/QUOTE] I mean you dont have to use them. They have HD models and they dont look all that bad. Its just a taste

How sexualized. Rawr.

Why does FF make everyone's eyes massive?

The male and female models are bad, both look either sexualized to hell or 'prim-and-proper' which complete distracts from the game's normal, decrepit, and bleakish tone.

the fuck is wrong with gman

[QUOTE=krakadict;46793408]the fuck is wrong with gman[/QUOTE] Everything. I wouldn't recognise most characters if I didn't see them in context of HL2.

I think we're all forgetting one very important person. [img]http://screenshots.filesnetwork.com/32/files2/84027_1.jpg[/img] [I]The master of space[/I]

[QUOTE=TornadoAP;46792745]If you ask me, most of the male models look good[/QUOTE] They'd look good if they actually looked like the original characters

even in a post-apocalyptic dystopian society controlled by evil totalitarian aliens people still manage to find and apply makeup

I love how this "cinematic" mod breaks almost all the facial expression, one of the most important storytelling features of HL2.

The biggest issue I have with FakeFactory, apart from the terrifying character models, is how he clutters the entire map with stuff. He's not exacly subtle about it. The guy has some good ideas on what to add to the environment but he is always overdoing it.

I mean look at this: [img]http://cinematicmod.com/images/cm_7/environments/cm_7_10.jpg[/img] What the fuck is this supposed to be? The only good graphics upgrade mod I've seen for HL2 is the HL2 Update by Filip Victor. It's a lot more subtle but it greatly improves on lighting etc. [url]http://steamcommunity.com/groups/Half-Life2Update[/url] Here's a few recent screens posted: [url]http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=dcypv4&s=8[/url] [url]http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=24ocdj5&s=8[/url] The final version has been in development for ages though and no release seems imminent, it's not dead though. Shame that recent HL2 updates from Valve have broken the earlier versions of his mod though.

and don't forget the fucking ferns

[QUOTE=Doritos-pope;46796845]Wasn't the plane and bridge fully intact in an earlier version?[/QUOTE] It was sticking up nearly vertically out of the ground, too.

That plane also isn't there anymore. Hasn't been for a few versions. I don't even think it is anywhere in the mod. Could be wrong.

Hey baby

I'm not sure how someone with half a brain cell would consider using this mod.

I know this shit got old a long time ago, but I burst out laughing at this: [t]http://i.imgur.com/kqeKaBo.jpg[/t]

Ah, used to love Al's New Vegas mod vids, he's got a silly sense of humor.

Oh my fucking god with those facial expressions :D It's like the combine has injected everyone's face with botox and thus no-body can make emotive facial expressions when talking.
