It is official: I am boycotting these light models. They will clearly divide up the TF2maps.net community into various subsections waging war amongst each other because of which lights are the best.

Also its taking way too long and I wanna use these lights! D:

I'm joining this boycott! fly me to your house so i can see the source files and have my worries disspelled!


In other news: I like the white skin for the latest (half-domed) set but the other skins lack a 'metallic' feel to them.

They'll be done when their done stop being unappreciative. He is doing this on his own time you know...

hm, yeh the lack of the metallic feel for it, was there from the beginning, imo. which is because i based my textures on the tf2-groundlight, which has very little detail or material definition, imo. so from that on i build up pretty much all of my lights so far. and with every new light i changed some tiny bitsy things but i think the overall look won't change too much in the end, i'm sry :/

SiniStarR, i think he was just goofing around a bit

18 and 26 are hawt

18 and 26 are hawt

They're halogen?

 

[Blue552]

I'd have use for all of them but I'd say 3 and 4 are my favourites [Really need red/green lights] 26 would be cool vertically.

17, 24, 25 are very nice and unique. Again, I'd use all of them though [capped atm]

Some more possible options you can make

This one is close to one you already have but might suit more places.

I really want these now

 

[Da_Man]

These need to get done, for great justice.

 

[Acumen]

hey guys, thanks for all your recent feedback. been having less time, because of gf complaining

and another one - complaining gf took a nap

 

[Acumen]

a bit overdone with the edgy texturing (looks like camouflage ), going to revisit this next weekend

 

[The Political Gamer]

Wow these are some really nice lights.

 

[Terr]

For that last set of "capped" lights, there may be some interesting things folks can do using small blocklight brushes to emulate the "shape" of the light that comes out.

 

[Tapp]

Would it be possible to make the collision hulls just the solid sections? That way light would shine straight through the glass bits, and create these great effects.

 

[Terr]

The only problem is that then you'd need to position your lights really precisely inside a "hollowed" model... I don't suppose there's a way to make a blocklight brush that only blocks light from a given source? (If even possible it might make you *name* the light, which is definitely going down a certain path with good intentions.)

 

[Tapp]

Wait, couldn't you just have 2 seperate textures referenced, one being the outer section and the other being the glass texture, with the same properties as light001?

 

[Laggy]

Let me download them now! they all look great, I think you just have to use them in context.

 

[DrHorrible]

Looking forward to using these! Thank you very much for your efforts!
