Yeah dirty is the same word I would use to express how I felt working on my version, mainly because I didn't use displacements because I'm a giant idiot.Modular design my friend.
My map's made from 9 similar cells.
One cell I made with 4 archways and one displacement.
After that, it's copy-paste.
The only trouble is making it look good.
And lighting, lighting takes damn long if you don't know what you're doing right off the hop.
Although it didn't take me six hours, it took me three at the absolute most.
I felt so dirty after working on this, I had to use vertex manipulation on the archways to get them on grid, resize them to make them fit which would throw it off grid.
Thanks to the displacements, it was leakier than broken faucet, so I encased the entire thing in a box and func-detailed everything else.
But hey, it looks nice.
This is the stuff nightmares are made of:
I quickly textured it to get a real feel of how it would look and besides the horrible reflectiveness of vanilla textures it looks pretty good.
I fucked up on the proportions of the map though, that would be my main regret.

There would be no room for a trash truck to lift/move the dumpster.
Currently working on my Arms Race map for CS:GO called ar_alleyway. Still quite a bit to be done.
Edited:
Need to add some vents in that first picture and I'm probably going to get rid of the truck and maybe add in a bunch of boxes so it looks more like a warehouse of some sort.

This is a good example of source not playing well with highly detailed maps unless you model everything. Which seems to be the way valve is doing CS:GOYeah dirty is the same word I would use to express how I felt working on my version, mainly because I didn't use displacements because I'm a giant idiot.

Has anyone got any idea why using prop_static on certain objects causes them to simply render/compile, despite them having "static" checked (allowed) in the model info?

You mean the floor cobble?
That's a dev texture?
I've been using that for ages and this is the first I'm hearing that it's terribad.
I honestly don't know what the setting is, I was just trying to replicate the source image and lighting.
Couldn't do the watery bit due to lack of custom content (I still have no idea how to properly create a texture for Source).

Would you mind if I asked for the VMF?Yeah dirty is the same word I would use to express how I felt working on my version, mainly because I didn't use displacements because I'm a giant idiot.

I could see some serious lighting potential here.
I promise I won't touch the original brushwork :3
-
It's bad because a lot of people (such as myself) have it (or had it) as the default hammer texture, and after so long it just becomes a complete eyesore, I can't even look at it as a proper texture.
when I see it, I just sigh at how "unfriendly" it suddenly looks, I honestly can't see it fitting in with any other texture.
-
Ah, I see what you mean.
I reconfigured my Hammer settings, now it loads with those grey dev textures, particularly the medium-grey one, 60% I think it is.
Jesus I type like William Shatner talks, commas everywhere, akward pauses, and a sudden flow of random words.

Viewer discretion is advised.
-
All you were missing was some good old fashioned lighting.
I think it looks just fine
Although in hindsight, that radiosity light might be a wee bit too bright.
Want that VMF back?
-
That looks really cool. Nice job on that.
-snip, wrong thread-

Yeah upload it I'd like to see how you managed to get that effect.All you were missing was some good old fashioned lighting.

Lots of TLC.
Tender lighting care.

made a quick thing for someone :V
-
Not entirely sure what to use this for yet, just posting to keep my motivation going.
-
Tell me you are not leaving it dev textures?made a quick thing for someone :V
-
I love maps like the one above, so tiny and compact yet after a round riddled with bullet marks, blood, corpses and great stories of shooting the fuck out of each other
-
Seems cool :) keep up the work.
- And the dev´s are just placeholders right?
-
Today's work. Yeh i know i said i would never map in source again, but i needed something else to fill my head than that infernal tutorial code.
-
Flat dirt? Displacements would make this much prettier. Shadows look off too.

What you think ?
I didnt have the right texture and i just feel lazy to make it myself it only for training me to rebuilding stuff from a picture
It took me less than 2 hours .. it was a quick test .. i may make the entire building later idk
-
Adding displacements in now. Some of the shadows do look a bit odd actually...hmm...i'll stab them a little :)
-
i recorded a little video of my Test chamber
Its a fast walkthrough
-
Ugh, A lot of progress today. Will fix the 3D skybox :)
-
Looks beautiful! I love what you done with the original to make it your own.Ugh, A lot of progress today. Will fix the 3D skybox :)

Hey guys, I'm working on recreating the Black Marsh in The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, but not in the shitty way that everyone on the nexus is.
screenshots:
Also, if you want to join a little facepunch skyrim modding group I made, here's the link!

It would be awesome to get a group of modders together to make one big collaboration.
-
There is something weird on the left column of the first picture
-
I misaligned the prop and forgot to fix it.
-
How large is the map expected to be in regards to the original?
-
I'm basing it of the CSS version, but the map size is the same, I just added some more fancy stuff, plus balancing stuff.
-
Seems good. Is there a location set?
-
I'll probably put up a thread in a bit for the first version release soon.
Does anyone here have or know someone who has a server who would be willing to host a this for testing?
-
More textures and details video coming soon.
-
The skybox has quite obvious corners and the clouds are far too flat at some parts.Ugh, A lot of progress today. Will fix the 3D skybox :)
-
Change the texture of those two support pillars. It looks really off. Also, use some decals.More textures and details video coming soon.
-
I like those happy little clouds <3 The map is coming out great!
-
I can't get it to look right :(
-
Try just putting snow on the horizontal (or close) faces.

That might help.
-
Reduce the noise, I think.I can't get it to look right :(
-
I was waiting for someone to notice the ugly stretching haha
