    Distant Detail - Optimization V9

    A collection of props, brushes and overlays, which are supposed to be used far away in inacessible areas out of bounds. They have minimal performance impact, perfect for detailing. Everything works in 3D skybox too. Objects on the gray grid can be placed in your map directly. Objects on the...

    Particles appearing in 3D skybox when it's not supposed to.

    I'm working on a halloween version of badlands (koth) for me and a friend, and I added the hammer_souls_rising particle about 460 units above the capture point, but for some reason they also appear off in the distance where the 3D skybox is placed outside the map. I tried raising the skybox in...

    Skybox visual bug

    My skybox has a weird visual bug where it appears as if I were staring into the void. This only happens when Iook at the skybox at certain angles and when I have r_3dsky set to "1", so I know that it is an issue with the 3d skybox. My console does not report any leaks, and I've tried changing...

    How Do you know where to place the trees in the 3d skybox?

    I wanted to make a simple 3d skybox with only the tree card prop, but there is no scaled up version so I don't know where to place them in relation to the rest of the map.

    Small project for 3d skybox, triggers, lighting, and other stuff. I tried to optimize it, but failed, so everything renders at once and I could'nt figure out how to do it properly, so that's why the performance might suffer. Sorry Being completely honest, I just want to not work on this anymore.

    First off, I need help with my 3d ocean skybox. As you can see in the attached screenshot, the divide between the playable world and 3d skybox is obvious. Everything is scaled properly, and it looks fine above water. Just when you're submerged, the 3d skybox is much brighter than the playable...

    [SOLVED] Skybox displacements appear differently in-game

    In Hammer, the displacement terrain in the 3D skybox is quite clearly lined up properly with the props (the props are even sunk into it a tiny bit), yet in-game it appears as though the props are floating above it. Tried recompiling, same problem. Any ideas?
