Anybody else notice the 2fort sniper fence in the background? Valve uses that prop WAY too much, and it hardly blends in with the theme, so it's obvious when they reuse it.

Use it too much? Where other than 2fort is it used?

Can anyone confirm to me why this:

Lai confirms that it is impossible to make an engineer pose like that in gmod without weird clipping.

Is relevant?

I mean, from one I thought that the models that Valve used in game were the ones sent with the game, just with the whole dynamic light processing done in full. On the other hand, I also find it hard to believe that that model has more bones than the normal one.

Of course I could be wrong, but if anyone could elucidate me.

Wouldn't surprise me if they released a new engineer model with more bones and stuff for the update so they can give him new animations

Yeah, it looks pretty crap actually. It looks like a Gravelpit-ish quality of detail, and Valve have progressed a lot since then

Considering the amount of projects Valve are working on these days, i'm surprised they don't have more level designers on their team... or the list i'm looking at is just that old and out dated.

But saying that, i guess they're not obligated to release new maps at all, let alone at the rate they have in the past.

their people list isn't conclusive. And I have no idea if it includes valve south people.

How does this look bad? It's not 2fort-amazing, but I'm glad they're going back to the mining/desert theme. I also like the change in the regular rock ground, looks more uneven and interesting. Inspiring, actually.

Why is everyone already going 'omg dis sux' when they saw just one small picture of the map with an engineer and a toolbox covering half of it? And does it matter if dario or anyone else made it or not? :/
