Looks good!
Though, it may be just me, but something seems to be a bit off...
Can't quite nail it.

I think it's his 'smile creases'. On mine they flare out more. I'll go and fix that.

as long as it's going to be darker in-game, it's pretty much perfect. Well, there are some shades of... greyish blue? on the left of the original eye but not in yours. But even then it doesn't matter that much.

I'll get a in-game picture soon, I want to get the normal maps and the neck done first, though.
And...it's 'blue' B-L-U-E, not 'blew'
I feel like the pupil should be just a bit bigger, but I'll have to see it in game first

You still planning on making his cheek skin look a bit rougher?
His stare makes me uncomfortable.
I think the AO effect on the eyes is a little too strong. We don't notice as much with Gman, because his eyes are already off. With the other characters, however, I think it's enough to get into the uncanny valley.
Another problem is that your shadows are transparent-black, as opposed to a darker shade of the eyelids/whites. This was a mistake I frequently made when first I got into faking shadows in photoshop. It's a minor one, but it can make a big difference.

Notice how in the image above, the shadow on the eyeball has a redish hue, because the light is casting through his eyelids.
I hate to nit-pick even more, but I think I speak for all of us when I say that getting the eyes right can make or break a character model, seeing as the player will focus almost solely on the character's eyes.

[QUOTE=hafidzz;39331837]CM is actually good, but those custom character..[/QUOTE]
Environments in CM are pretty crappy too- not in terms of mapping quality, but in terms of atmosphere, over done foliage, scaffolding, skyboxes, a lot of the new changed textures, and buildings.
[QUOTE=hafidzz;39331837]CM is actually good, but those custom character..[/QUOTE]
yes, it may be
but i believe that CM should never again be mentioned in this thread, this mod and it have too many differences

[I]Exactly[/I] like that.
Barney's eyelid creases (over the eye not under) are almost completely gone and his eyebrows are still too thin. Not thin in shape but it looks like the density isn't high enough.
[IMG_thumb]http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090714151905/half-life/en/images/9/97/Barney_meetup.jpg[/IMG_thumb]
Maybe the same thing is going on with his stubble, idk. That doesn't really matter. Barney's gonna be Barney stubble or not. It's the flesh that needs to be right. This is seriously really close though. You're like right on the border.
All I can say with kleiner is that those eyelid creases (that's above the eye, not below) still aren't deep (dark) enough. It's the only thing keeping his face from being 100% Kleiner.
One thing that's really bothering me about the Barney skin for a while is how bulky his nose seems to be compared to the original skin, which seems to curve in more naturally. The nostril holes looks kinda painted on, as well.

Other than that, this skin is pretty damn good and almost close enough to the original. You're getting there.
Also he needs his chin crease back. You had it a few versions back but it disappeared for some reason :v:
Also I was reading through the Laidlaw vault
[B]Why City 17 is Totally Americanized
[/B]
[QUOTE]Originally Posted by Marc Laidlaw
If someone wanted to, they could mod a version of City 17 that would play as intended: Namely, the citizens should have spoken every language in all our localized versions, and Breen's broadcasts (and all the PA broadcasts) should have looped through all the translations. Maybe someday, the amount of audio you'd have to load to have all those wavs in memory will seem insignificant and this will be a really easy thing to do...but I always pictured the citizens speaking every language with every accent. The fact they all speak American English is just an unfortunate byproduct of our various physical limitations...it could be modded to be otherwise.[/QUOTE]
interesting. I'm not sure if this was already brought up, but it sounds pretty cool. maybe this could be implemented at some point. Just not for story specific citizens of course. Probably not smart to use every single language available either :p
Man I totally forgot about that, that'd be really cool, not sure if it's even possible though. Where would we get all the extra sound and how would we work it in without citizens randomly switching languages all the time? I'm not sure if it's feasible, even though I support it 110%.

Maybe somewhere down the line, someone could send off an email and ask if there's any chance of getting those lines? Extremely unlikely, but I guess worth a shot..
Can you implement these two for when resistance members in your group are running? They were originally going to be a default feature in HL2, but was scrapped. I think they are in the gamefiles however.

These are how it normally is in HL2 (Or if you added it, when they are standing still).

Minor addition but I think it would be interesting to have in-game.

Half-life 2 has full audio support for 9 languages, so all you would need to to would be to change the language of the game and steam will download all the audio files needed for you.
Then its just a matter of copying any files you need to the mod and applying them where need be.
It could be set up so the citizens sitting in the train station and wandering the city all have different languages. Like the the guy mumbling about the trains be doing so in Russian, or even go as far as adding a bunch more citizens and have groups all chatting in there own languages using what lines are available.
