Half-Life 2: Enhancement Mod (V2) - Games

[QUOTE=Francisco;39302001]what are you asking for dude?[/QUOTE] Barney should be look like a normal person/soldier, not a super hero/super soldier who have a "balls of steel". (In original he joking, taling stories and doing something, so that the war has had no effect on him and his friend.) Hairs in nose: Dude just don't added a AO to texture because this is a WIP. Result > hair catches the eye. I understood this and i sorry about that critic words.

[QUOTE=Fat-Corgi-Guy;39289967][B]New, darker eyes, with a new ao texture to make the edges of the eyeball darker.[/B] [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/7jsDnRt.jpg[/img_thumb] The eyeball [I]is[/I] now about the same color and darkness as the original, it's just the shader making it look a little lighter in the mdlviewer. My proof is the texture: mine-[img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/BtRc7Tk.jpg[/img_thumb][img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/hBmDbBc.jpg[/img_thumb]-enlarged version of VALVe's[/QUOTE] You're getting there, you need to add the "ligher" areas now here's a crop of the forehead that should explain what i mean [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/MILv8mU.png[/IMG] [img]http://i.imgur.com/hvE0mas.png[/img] yours is flat, valve's is like a mirrored gradient you already have this to a small extent under the eyes, you need to exaggerate it and also do it on the forehead

[QUOTE=HASL;39291954]Also, Gman eyes [B]must[/B] be blurred, because it was designed. (Sorry for bad english guys.)[/QUOTE] Wat :v:

[QUOTE=HASL;39302195] Clothing folds: folds by normal maps may not look realistic with dynamic light. (You are going to add dynamic light, right?) This can be a reason why Valve did hipoly players and players hand with folds in CS GO. Please check truthfulness of my words.[/QUOTE] CS:GO's clothing folds / details are in their normalmaps... Each line represents a vertex, notice how the clothing folds aren't showing a lot of verts. [t]http://static.glitchvid.com/images/fp_posts/csgomodelnormals.png[/t]

Hot damn. Now you just need to get that level of detail on Alyx and Barney.

Wow that's ominous! Adds a whole new look for gman

Very good, applause for this gentleman (Writing again about gman's beard, bleh)

I'm guessing the suit texture hasn't been touched yet?

[QUOTE=Blooper Reel;39303212]I'm guessing the suit texture hasn't been touched yet?[/QUOTE] All character's body textures won't be touched until we get the new models.

Alright, some small progress on the rooftops.

I always found this area to look very bland and generic, the texture tiles very visible, it looks blocky etc, does anyone have some suggestions on how to spruce it up a little bit?

[QUOTE=Marbledemon;39303333]Awesomeness[/QUOTE] Loving the windows and interior of the "silo"! [QUOTE=Marbledemon;39303333]I always found this area to look very bland and generic, the texture tiles very visible, it looks blocky etc, does anyone have some suggestions on how to spruce it up a little bit?[/QUOTE] Apart from a less noticeably tiled texture, which will be made, I'd say add some "city mulch". Like trash and leaves littered round the edges of the building bottoms. Maybe a dumpster or two also.

Will this be ported to episode one and two? Or is it going to be released as a mod of sorts to the new alien swarm engine as the OP implies? If so, will EP1 and 2 be added on? This might bring me to replay hl2.

Plus some trails of dirt, it looks too 'sterile' without any dirt down there, and it's not like anyone regularly sweeps that area.

[QUOTE=Zay333;39304181]So are you guys also planning on retouching/remaking maps?[/QUOTE] [B]Read the OP please:[/B] [QUOTE=OP] • Add more details to the maps, such as more props, 3D windows in the city, and smoothing out rough edges, like arches. • Put in more secret areas.[/QUOTE]

i had to snip it because i was ninja'd

I wish there was a demo, like the Point Insertion chapter up to the apartment block raid, just like HL2 Demo

[QUOTE=Swog;39304428]I wish there was a demo, like the Point Insertion chapter up to the apartment block raid, just like HL2 Demo[/QUOTE] What about a Lost Coast port?

Do you guys plan on adding some gonomes? Its kind of strange you don't see them around anymore, and they could definitely add to the gameplay.

It's funny 'cause Lost Coast is overall higher quality than Half-Life 2 standard, it's probably around what they're shooting for, which kinda makes Lost Coast a demo by default, though of lesser quality due to dated textures and lighting.

[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;39304023]Plus some trails of dirt, it looks too 'sterile' without any dirt down there, and it's not like anyone regularly sweeps that area.[/QUOTE] I dunno, they might occasionally bring in slave vortigaunts to sweep the area.

[QUOTE=supersoldier58;39304583]Do you guys plan on adding some gonomes? Its kind of strange you don't see them around anymore, and they could definitely add to the gameplay.[/QUOTE] Oh, I would love to add them, though stuff like that will depend heavily on if we have enough time and people to put it in.

[QUOTE=Fat-Corgi-Guy;39302984][B]I decided to load my G-man skin into EP1 and EP2 to see how it looks...[/B][/QUOTE] Yeah, you've pretty much nailed the eyes here. The face still needs to be just a smidge paler, though I'm guessing that probably won't be an issue once you've loaded all your post-processing stuff on.

you know on the original xbox [video=youtube;VZV4W62Jw4U]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZV4W62Jw4U[/video] it has a really nice echo effect is it possible to implement that kind of effect for the pc?

Is the Enhancement Mod going to be released as a separate mod, or is it just going to be something you dump in your HL2 folder like a texture pack or whatever?
