There were two ingame lessons about detailing hosted by Immortal-D.
You can download the demo files and watch: Details 101, Details 201
Sweet! Thanks! Any written ones? (Also... This is stupid, but how do I watch the demos?)
I understand that, but I won't be able to get testing done (get it hosted) without some degree of prettinessi think, apart from those demos by immortalD, is to open up the vmf's of valve maps (which are provided in ou mapsrc folder, and to look at what valve have done o get a general idea of things to do. Then add your own touchs and inspiration to detailing once you have got the hang of it =]
Remember, detailing should be one of teh last things you do, =]
