72hr Jam 2024 Modular Spytech Monitors 1.0
Modular pieces for creating spytech screens of any desired size/shape
This pack contains a set of modular spytech monitor pieces which can be assembled into larger screens in any rectangular shape.
The monitors have an animated, translucent screen texture which gives the appearance of a display to anything behind it.
===================
Any brush texture can be applied to the monitors with the following procedure:
1. Arrange the props into your desired shape.
2. Create a func_illusionary 3 hammer units thick with the desired texture on its front face.
3. Align the corners to the inner corners of the frame.
4. If using a texture WITHOUT self-illumination (i.e. most stock textures), set the "Minimum Light Level" property to 2. This makes the texture appear fullbright. If your screen appears black in-game, you probably need to do this.
For blank screens, I recommend still using a black func_illusionary to avoid any visual issues related to transparency sorting.
Some premade examples are included in the VMF file.
