[QUOTE=The Jack;39091509]I don't think metrocops realy need riotshields. I don't think the combine would really tolerate a riot. Probably just send the troops in and shoot the shit out of any rioters.[/QUOTE]
Well a rebellion is what half of Half Life 2 takes place in, and the Combine barricade themselves behind large door shield barricades, I'm not sure what makes you think they wouldn't deploy shields since the combine make heavy use of them in outposts.
Also I think shields could be an interesting addition, but I fear that we will slightly get more and more out of hand with what we implement until it will become more of a re-imagining and less of a Enhancement.
But I think its safe to say we aren't going to spiral out of control and add something ridiculous like throw-able cats.
Now where are those God damn in game Corgis that are totally lore-friendly we were promised.

80 thousand trillion Polys per can, we can optimize the game by taking out the maps.
4096*2048 is obviously too high for a can model.I think for a can, 1024*512 with no normal map would be good enough.

ONLY 80 thousand trillion polys per can? That's the amount we should have for each pixel.

It was mainly just a joke, but it does look very good in-game.

It's okay, we can just use colour grading so people think it's too dark for lens flares!

No, this isn't just any lens flare.
Every single spec of light will be the equivalent of a star going [B]SUPER NOVA
[/B]I have a good feeling about this, it's like the Mass Effect 3 team is right behind me on this, I can almost taste it.

I personally want to make this mod with no lens flares, or anything of the kind. I want to make HL2 look as realistic as possible- something I haven't seen many mods or games do.
You could argue that lens flares are realistic, because Gordon is wearing glasses- However, I have glasses, and I don't see lens flares on them when looking around.
Though Ken Chan is implementing optional lens flares.

Bad decision, you need to make Half life 2 appeal to the youngsters these days.
I expect you to implement:
Kill Streaks
360 No Scoping
Iron Sights
Replace campaign with a generic boring one.
US Marines everywhere
'MURICA
Terrorists
Bin Laden as the leader of the Combine
Gordon is a US Marine Private who starts the campaign on a shooting range while a instructor yells at him.
Until this list is complete, this mod will never get off the ground.
Also you must retcon Half life 1 to a be wet-dream of Obama

Make it parallax
I hope you guys are going to try to keep it original as possible because it wont be HL2 if you add content that has been taken out or haven't ever been implemented before.
good thing no-one can blame me for anything because i'm just the effects guy hohohoho
we need direct x11 tesselation for those walls
If those have bumpmaps it will be great. I hope seeing those textures being released, regarless of the mod state.
P.D: Make a door01_left right. I don´t know why VALVe made only the left, and is annoying when using keypads or pushbars with double doors or with the opposite position. I know that someone did it, but it has bugs.

If I didn't make it clear enough in this thread or the last thread, I'm sorry.
-We are taking HL2, its story, its levels, basically everything- and sticking it on the Alien Swarm Engine.
-Revamping textures, models, maps, effects, and redoing the low-quality sounds (granted there aren't that many lq sounds in the game).
-Changing a few minor things such as the clip size of the SMG1 to be 40 instead of 45 (making it more realistic).
-Adding extra secret areas in the levels, with some new achievements.
-Add some new enemies (about 2), and maybe more variety to the enemies (via skins, and bodygroups + maybe, [I]MAYBE[/I] stuff like riot shields for the combine).

it won't be original half-life 2 but it will basically be the same base game.

And of course I'll be working on DoF in certain stationary scenes, too. (I.E Final Gman Scene)

The hair doesn't look right. It looks as if someone painted it in his forehead. He could also use some more bruises and cuts and all that jazz.
