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

Zaxon doesn't matter how much you disagree doesn't mean I have a reason. Yours- [IMG]http://puu.sh/3d0pf[/IMG] Valve's- [IMG]http://puu.sh/3d0pu.jpg[/IMG] sorry for the shitty picture for the valve one.

And as for the 80 combine I am thinking of posting a study and restoration post about him. I currently have his legs and hands (original) but alot of stuff on it has to be remade.

[QUOTE=Mech Bgum;40992226][video=youtube;FDQPHLhcI2Y]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDQPHLhcI2Y[/video] Are there any screenshots with citizens seen in e3 2004 trailer?[/QUOTE] I actually started remaking this guy but I wasnt happy with the texture, the model is used in hl2 as the corpse.mdl and its texture file is cleary a modified 2004 citizen texture. If someone wants to restore the texture ill be happy to do the model.

I've ran into the same problem. You need to add them back in with the cut tool and weld them together. Bit difficult to explain :v:

Shit, I'm having problems with my HL2 Beta It forces mat_fullbright 1 on all the maps, and it won't turn off. sv_cheats is on, but I can't put in mat_fullbright 0

the easiest beta mod to make would be an e3 2004 one

Everyone has to start somewhere.

[QUOTE=SFC003;40998227]the easiest beta mod to make would be an e3 2004 one[/QUOTE] Either that or the "Gordon goes to different planets and fights aliens" scrap of a plotline that was among the first things dropped.

[QUOTE=ProZak;40998283]Why? Everyone has to start somewhere.[/QUOTE] I am incredibly pessimistic about my work. Even my current stuff. I'm never happy with any thing I make be it art, writing, or whatever. My old stuff just flat out embarrasses me.

[QUOTE=Katatonic717;41000273]I am incredibly pessimistic about my work. Even my current stuff. I'm never happy with any thing I make be it art, writing, or whatever. My old stuff just flat out embarrasses me.[/QUOTE] Ah. I know that feeling way too well.

[QUOTE=Katatonic717;41000273]I am incredibly pessimistic about my work. Even my current stuff. I'm never happy with any thing I make be it art, writing, or whatever. My old stuff just flat out embarrasses me.[/QUOTE] Every artist should be critical of his own work, it's normal bro.

[QUOTE=mySvenLabs;40998405]Either that or the "Gordon goes to different planets and fights aliens" scrap of a plotline that was among the first things dropped.[/QUOTE] I was thinking of creating a mod that ties every plot together from each version of the beta. I had some long ass 22 pages of paper somewhere with a whole story about Gordon entering through rifts in time and shit, but I think I dropped it because of the massive size it would be. Like seriously, only counting the stuff valve has released(not the gigs of custom and fan made things) how big would the beta be now? Like, a million bajillion gigs?

I'm happy enough with just someone almagamating and riffing on all that was dark, metropolitan, and all-consuming about C17: there's been nothing so disconcertingly alien from end-to-end - although quite a bit of that's me reading into RtB's scraps, of course; the only detailed and "deepened" articulation of C17 in-game was in E3 '02 and even that was after a whole lot of scaling down of ambition. (Although I also suspect it'll be as punchy and varied a piece of gameplay as a damp rag. That's certainly been my impression of Vertigo - the only thing livening it up was the slow reveals about C17's condition, and I suspect the only other way to make it interesting would have been to turn it into a CoD-like and focus on tacticool gunplay.) Gordon jetsetting about the world's just a bit of a sideshow compared to that - fly in somewhere exotic and unknown, blow up an objective, toot your horn. C17, on the other hand, is symbolic and distilled oppression and deliberate attempts against humanity.

We're looking for modellers, mappers and 2d artists for Missing Information. Do you know anyone with the skills and the interest? Feel free to send them my way ;)!

[QUOTE=ProZak;41047548]Somewhat but I don't recall who posted it. Red or mugofdoom perhaps? Shame about the projects thing, we really need more content creators.[/QUOTE] It was you, if I remember correctly. :v:

I've never posted anything that was made in Paint so I really doubt that, and I've never used the Windows Basic theme either :)

[QUOTE=Snood_1990;41048570]It was you, if I remember correctly. :v:[/QUOTE] Scart posted it but he might not have made it. I found that same image posted by scart in an archive of the beta model discussion thread :v:

Odd. I looked through some old logs from around that time (well I made a program that searched the logs) and copied all ImageShack links to a html file so I could easily view them. I didn't find that image but I found these two things.

I love the EP2 cut content. I like the maps, the beta vehicle, and the final fight where there were combine soldiers as well, giving it a battle field feeling (When I say battle field, I don't mean the game) There was a [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1075028"]forum[/URL] up in the pages where someone was SO CLOSE to finishing the Jalopy, but was then permabanned and said on his steam he would not release it. Darnit why does everything good end up dying!?!?! Note: That forum I mentioned is old. Just saying this so you don't bump it on accident.
