Half-life 2 Cut Content - Is it me or dose the cut content look better than what we got? - Games

Huh, I didn't know this many people liked the Clamp version. imo it's kinda too stocky to be menacing.

Wires look strange with this kind of streetlamps. Aren't they supposed to be fed electricity from under the ground? And wires would therefore better suit the kind of lamps seen on the docks in e3_town, the ones with brackets.

But seriously, what could be the reasons for the amount of green lights in old C17 maps? I figure it would be because of the pollution, but only C17 has them and not Ravenholm or the Canals. I don't think streetlamps are the only thing causing the green lights [IMG]http://combineoverwiki.net/images/1/10/Sky_walk_vertigo_street.jpg[/IMG]

I just assumed green was the art direction they chose for C17, it feels kind of alien and cold, pretty suitable for C17. I remember looking at concept art recently for HL2 and each area had a very distinct colour palette and style, I didn't really think there was an in-universe reason behind the colouring.

[QUOTE=Exploders;50365300]We can always make one ourselves[/QUOTE] Nothing ever gets done in this community :v:

Green-blue light comes from mercury lights, which were phased out in the mid-70's or so in America. I imagine that was kinda what valve was going for.

It's extremely nice to see HL2 beta stuff getting made and/or released without any bullshit. When I was in agnmi everyone was a massive cunt on all sides, me included. I never thought I'd see the beta community get to a point where it's actually civil. I mean yeah there is content theft and stuff still happening I bet, but that isn't happening here, and overall this is good. Sorry if I'm getting all dramatic over leaked content from a game that came out over 10 years ago, but it's just very pleasant to just see us discussing and working on stuff with no drama, no name calling, and no bullshit.

So apparently the crabsynth has sidestepping and backwards walking animations. Decompiling the model outputs all of the necessary animations to make a blended walk sequence. I guess valve defined the animations, but never blended the sequence?

I have yet to see anyone re-uv anything like the Alien Assassin or Combine Guard, so I'm guessing it's a hard thing to do, especially on something so complex like the Crab Synth.

If you re-uv it, I've been considering adding a Crab Synth to my mod, so if you ever finish it, I'll gladly do so, if I've made my mind up

Any particular reason you guys aren't just using the Crab Synth from C17EP1? We're planning on adding that to MI.

VDC is of absolutely no help with how it describes, well, anything in it. Just how do you do it? Also kinda hard to imagine a huge synth using blended animations, it doesn't seem agile enough, unlike humanoids.

We're planning on adding that to MI.[/QUOTE] I actually did not know anything about such a model but it is my strict rule that I never use any content made by anybody but me (and Valve, for HL2 and was what intended in HL2). Same reason I still use HL:S houndeyes and not the ones from MI. Speaking of which. Did anybody else remade that model from the leak? I'm simply curious on that.

I think MI already remade the Houndeye model it or I at least think they did. However, the texture needs more work, as it's the one straight from the leak and pretty LQ. Being from the leak, most of the textures are separated and the body is a mirrored texture, which just isn't good.

Because I only know about their model which I see in almost every other mod.

I can really tell this is going to be a really enjoyable experience all round. [IMG]http://puu.sh/p2sQc/a872e47a15.png[/IMG]

His only dream was a new UV map and he's finally getting it.

Poor guy

I have no idea how or why it became "property" of MI, but I talked to the original creator [I]YEARS[/I] ago and he gave me the source files.
