[QUOTE=Falchion;27075482]Edit: This displays what if Halflife 2 had all of it's models made in the late 90s for a topdown strategy game and then they just ported those over to the source engine. And the developers were on crack.[/QUOTE] City17 2000?
[QUOTE=Foda;27075029]Haha, I lost it when the citizens were M&Ms[/QUOTE] Their voices are just the perfect match. Also I wonder how the Gman looks like.
It's The Plunger of DEATH!
[QUOTE=nanutek;27072983]Does propper work properly with brushes w/ displacements?[/QUOTE] Yes but no collisions (can build a nodraw as a substitute) with displacements and no texture blending. I made these pods with displacements and propper: [img]http://img253.imageshack.us/img253/2528/hive2010004.jpg[/img] Very handy tool, overlooked imo. Edit: And to push its limits, this Aztec temple (plus a skybox version): [img]http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/9861/aztectemple.jpg[/img]
Now that's definitely an idea for Half-Mind.
Hahaha, I recognize everyone
Oh dear god, if ever this is released it will be reason enough to replay HL2 for me. I hope he ends up replacing the zombies and Grigori, that would make Ravenholm interesting.
What the fuck is barney? Some type of toilet?
[QUOTE=~ZOMG;27073128]Yes, but you should be learning a proper modelling tool if you want to make models really. Propper doesn't delete any faces at all, and results in very unoptimised meshes.[/QUOTE] If you use certain invisible textures (eg. clip, nodraw, sky), on a face, that face will be erased. You can lower the final poly count of your model by using nodraw on any face that the player won't see. Rated me dumb? You sound like anyother modeler who blindly refuses to see the benefits of such a program, the fact you can compile models in hammer in a matter of 5 seconds, makes this tool very useful. I know of a couple of mappers who are more than capable of using modeling programs who when faced with certain situations opt to use propper for convenience.
I need this. I don't care if my computer is in it's death throes and if I install anything it'll explode. shit this is funny
Downloading HL2 as we speak
Well obviously he didn't use just Propper, otherwise there would be no rigging and smoothing groups would be practically nonexistant. [editline]30th December 2010[/editline] Still fucking badass though. The characters are awesome.
Reminds me of minecraft oddly. This is what you call art!
I burst out laughing when i saw the pigs.
New Cinematic Mod
Better than Fakefactory. Although I suppose that's not saying much.
[QUOTE=Samuelgames;27086804]He could've imported the models in a modelling software then rigged it from then with the Valve biped, but I doubt he really used hammer to use it as OP described[/QUOTE] Yeah that's what I meant.
Models made in Hammer? Pfft yeah, when pigs fl- :geno:
What did I just watch....
a video about a freaky model pack v:v:v
What exactly have the metrocops been replaced with? and is Barney a.. display stand?
You can't because hammers destroy things.
[QUOTE=TheFacePuncher1;27113043]You can't because hammers destroy things.[/QUOTE] No, you're halfway right. This Hammer destroyed our previous beliefs of what's possible.

Barney is a sink and metrocops are "dirt". Mr. Muscle is a bathroom cleaning product after all. Sadly I can't find the original ad.
