VALVE CUT CONTENT V2+1: Digging through Valve's trash since 2003! - Games

Thanks Marph!

Did some digging, found a higher quality version of the TF2 Power Shield deploy concept all alone in it's own directory on Chuck's site. It's way better in quality then the one you can find normally. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/240792/e2c0a788-7491-4440-ba84-68eb654050f2/image.png

Where'd you find it at?

Just looking at beta maps in the john folder and composite/buildingset007a.vtf https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/241251/a2463434-fae6-48b1-910a-b6e5ddd400d7/foundsomething.PNG

Yep, correct, that's what brickwall012c used to look like before it was changed around ~late 2002. I did make a recreation of it some time last year, but I never considered it good enough to release: https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/109794/b4aa9a08-1359-4c52-913b-5870f3d266a0/demo_city0005.jpg I might release it sometime if I do ever improve on the design.

I'd say that recreation is spot-on!

Decided to try my hand at remaking the trailer era chambers which despite being only a few months older is pretty drastically different in some ways than the leaked build from Dec 06 Flame portals Observation rooms are primitive reflective rooms or use plaster wall textures Most props such as the button and doors are untextured Buttons use default moving sound and are not on a 128x128 brush Launcher uses an earlier model, I was able to recover the raw XSI model and rig it to retail animations Catcher is smaller and placed on an octagonal brush Elevator brushwork is also more primative Yellow line indicators with orange brush endcap instead of the dotted orange/blue indicators in retail HPD uses older F-22 texture https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/231654/901fc0e7-0836-41b0-bf54-40b36f0f734a/20180424124413_1.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/231654/65ad9c66-9d81-4a33-a6a2-cf6f80c0fddb/20180424124613_1.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/231654/86e33dae-4d78-4435-8f6c-172c86db2186/20180424125722_1.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/231654/b2103a62-bb63-4e02-89cb-991310dedf12/20180424125744_1.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/231654/c21d9aaa-1626-4de1-a584-775340450188/20180424125844_1.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/231654/35b1a4dc-67a0-4e8c-b921-9beab6bc0c91/20180424162230_1.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/231654/afbd0bb8-95c8-4d7a-96ba-d45522c39171/20180424162447_1.jpg

Compiled a list of all the missing models in Invasion, and organized it so it's easier to read. I counted too, there's 92 missing models mentioned in the source code. Probably gets into the hundreds thanks to missing viewmodels/worldmodels too. ======INVASION MISSING MODELS======= =[MISSING 92 MODELS OUT OF A TOTAL OF 96 KNOWN MODELS.]= =(94 are only present within the source code, and two are mentioned outside of it.)= Misc.

Over the course of the last year or so, I've made many Frankenstein-style mock-up texture recreations of lost HL2 textures, but I haven't been bothered to release most of them. So, here are a bunch of texture recreations that I haven't released up until this point. Please do credit me if you use them! Some of the textures included are a full recreation of the old brickwall011 series (based on the texture buildingset016a), a recreation of the old concretewall017 series (revealed in ValveTime's c1a3 screenshot), a brickwall012c recreation, and more! (I think there may also be one or two renamed textures from CZ included) Download here! Enjoy!

Could you release everything in one pack? I'm not looking forward to hunting down wherever you put what you have released.

It's got pretty much everything now.

hold on why is this thread in TF2? HL would make more sense.

Congrats 100 VCC followers! I may be late but when reading, I just saw that

Not sure if Anyone's visited chuck's Valve page yet, little bit of TF2 Invasion artwork. http://www.chuckejones.com/images/tf2_invasion_weapon_reload1.gif

I love that retrofuturistic aesthetic

Pretty sad that this thread died after the forum move. Also tf2 section? Really??

We've already talked about almost everything related to the betas, so there's nothing to discuss besides people wanting to recreate beta content.

I checked, nobody really found this, except some quake fan sites mirroring a FTP site called "telefragged," this could possibly be the rarest video on Half-Life 2 beta. This is (maybe?) Axel with a CD of Half-Life 2 beta, saying he stole it from valve itself. Main differences are the intro to Traptown and the main menu, I have never seen before. Here's the goldmine I found this in (hl2betavid.zip) https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/241251/4a4647fd-315b-4a8f-9073-d9ac1f206c9a/hl2betavid.WMV

Well back when the beta was initially leaked it was kind of a huge pain to find and it also didnt work super well like it does now adays. So lots of folks made fakes claiming to have it and gotten it running properly. That could potentially be one of those.

That's just the e3 demo traptown, I don't get it.

Absolutely nothing new about any of this. This is what Valve showed off at E3 when Half-Life 2 was first shown to the public. I imagine a lot of people in this community wasn't born back then which is kinda weird to think about.

Naw I just meant like the whole presentation of the video like "ooohh look I got the beta on cd woah"

(This is in Xash3D)

Xash3d? That is too amazing for an engine like that!

Leak HL2 in GoldSrc is a thing I always wanted to see, so far looks good!

I decided to try my hands at making a recreation of the crowbar shown in the docks screenshot, download: https://www.dropbox.com/s/39zqfkke4hv0pjy/2002%20Crowbar%20updated.zip?dl=0 https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/272180/be0f8407-15ce-44b8-80ee-a22a579d26ba/docks.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/272180/1132aa01-6131-4661-81df-042dfe8c8511/c8637d498b04df5010704fa05ddbf2ea.jpg
