[QUOTE=RaTcHeT302;40304719][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GQdjeLv.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] I really like the Orange one.
Fixed some smaller issues. Not really sure what else I could do to it, should be fine for now? I'll try to work on something new when I have more time. I honestly prefer the red version, but oh well :v: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/XDprnDk.png[/IMG] EDIT: The city gradient was supposed to be slightly differrent, much lighter but meh, I'll fix it tomorrow. Might revert the birds to a darker color. Unfixed red version [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iIH5bnL.png[/IMG] Anyway, good night! See you tomorrow.
Someone should give a Deathmatch Classic-style/colored logo a shot.
So I come back and theres 107 posts. Oh boy. I think ALL of these logos look awesome and I don't remember us ever settling on a name, mainly because we gave up and it was becoming a stupid thread fad. To be honest if we did agree on Enhancement Mod I think its time to change it because I am just getting sick and tired of seeing these "You're not doing a good job Enhancing" or "It's a enhancement mod not a *insert a ton of things we're implementing here because its funny guys* mod" excuses. Guys, you have to remember that its a mod, not some AAA Valve Approved Source 2 ran Half-Life 2 remake. We try our best and rude posts are not going to help anyone.
Since I have more free time, I think continuing the airboat is in order.

What if the birds (?) in the icons were city scanners? You know, to sort of mirror the early part of the game? Too silly?
[QUOTE=Fat-Corgi-Guy;40305708]I don't know how to map :/[/QUOTE] I can do it real quick, hold on. It's about time I actually made myself useful for once.
[QUOTE=blah2;40305407]Corgi, can you quickly make an indoor dim lit map with my textures to test it? Then make a small video maybe? I want to see if I should keep this style. A 512 block with the HD texture applied, then the other two with a couple of units of space between the background and the truss with the alpha on. Wanna see some flashlight action. Thanks.[/QUOTE] why don't you use steam or hl2 D:
[QUOTE=mySvenLabs;40306420]Can I make a request? What if the birds (?) in the icons were city scanners? You know, to sort of mirror the early part of the game? Too silly?[/QUOTE] It looks like they are, the Citadel is in it's "alerted" shape.
[video=youtube;pzC2B80Kr5k]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzC2B80Kr5k&feature=youtu.be[/video] Sorry about the metalgrate texture, the alpha channel wasn't showing up properly in VTFEdit (I got nothing but a big white box), so I just kind of worked with what I knew how to do.

Also, I can fix the alpha map (or add one, whichever it is that needs to be done).
[QUOTE=Zero Hour;40300776]Should use this style of headcrab ;D if HL2 was a horror game.. [IMG]http://www.thomasmahler.com/images/portfolio/headcrab_03.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] This should be a headcrab (after) you set it on fire, mnnn crispy.
[QUOTE=Spoongooner_Son;40310722]This should be a headcrab (after) you set it on fire, mnnn crispy.[/QUOTE] Thats way to much work, for such a small detail..

It does look good after all. Pretty solid texture. I guess that some work with alpha channels, mipmaps and subtle reflexions would really do the work.

Wait, do these logos mean you guys settled on "enhanced" as a title?
[QUOTE=xalener;40313216]Wait, do these logos mean you guys settled on "enhanced" as a title?[/QUOTE] Sorta. No one's really suggested a better name that people liked very much, and 'Enhanced' fits and explains what the mod's all about more-or-less. Plus I think the name's kinda stuck in our heads now.

[QUOTE=blah2;40313377]Half-Life 2: High Definition, Half-Life 2: HD Mod, Half-Life 2: Everything Is Sharper Edition[/QUOTE] High Definition is not a good word. It sounds more like a TV, texture's aren't High Definition either, they're high resolution, or high quality. And personally I find names like that not too appealing...
I'd suggest Half-Life 2[SUP][+][/SUP] It's, more or less, a reference to Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the [+] was a sign for the augmentations/improvements.
[QUOTE=SFC003;40305044]I'd like something like for HL2's logo the citadel, if we do EP1, we can do a broken citadel, and EP2 can be a destroyed portal-storm'd citadel :v:[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ARTwcIf.png[/IMG] Still experimenting. It looks as if a giant mushroom was abducting the citadel though...
[QUOTE=RaTcHeT302;40313101][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/noYgg1b.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] Maybe a gunship and two scanners? More balanced, imho.
[QUOTE=RaTcHeT302;40313101]logos[/QUOTE] These logos look great, the only thing is, when I look at them they don't really tell me that it's HL2 Enhanced. Instead it looks more like a logo for "City 17: Part 1". Just my opinion though. [editline]17th April 2013[/editline] Ok, so I worked on a few more little logo designs, trying to make it more artistic.

Doubt I'll ever use these.

Also here's a red and white one: [t]http://i.imgur.com/1UchSlu.png[/t]
I think I've been working with Statistics too much, because every time I see Sigma all I can think is "Why are we taking the Summation of Half-Life?"
So are we still looking for name suggestions?
[QUOTE=DatWut?;40315205]So are we still looking for name suggestions?[/QUOTE] We are if you can come up with something that's good that still explains what the purpose of this mod is. [editline]17th April 2013[/editline] On another note, we only have 4 pages left now before we have to make a new thread...
