WiP in WiP, post your screenshots!

This crypticness is intense! Nice touch naming the image file "sM2dA9h" (or that might just be whatever image hosting you've used...)

It does appear that with whatever 3D modeling tool you've used, you've taken special care to texture specular-less black onto the model. Here's an example of me using the same trick:

Either that, or the falloff of the light source(s) is/are quite short.

This is just Source, Gmod, and some fancy lighting positioning.....

there's nothing TO brighten up, it's almost entirely #000000

Yes... but looks can be deceiving you one :cool1:

Nah, I shoulda tested it out before I uploaded it. I fucked it up without realizing it.... Whoops

All that is missing is slender-spy.

No, that's a stupid idea!

I doubt most comp players have real time reflections turned on anyways. It's something that's almost always turned off in graphics configs.

No matter the water quality setting it will always reflect in real-time. The amount which gets reflected though is changed. On the lowest setting only level geometry will be reflected. The middle setting reflects particles belonging to the world too, along with anything animated which belongs to the map (like a door or something). The highest setting adds player-induced things like rocket trails, rockets, rocket explosions, and player models (not your own unfortunately).

Of course, you can force "cheap" water. But also keep in mind that if this map were to go official (which I hope it will) there will be more people playing that map than just the competitive guys.

Finished reskinning some of the halloween_rock models last night. They were supposed to have specular maps too, but Crowbar wasn't agreeing with my $env commands...I'll have to sort that out later

Ok now that's brilliant.

Wow. Amazing.
Had exactly the same idea, but never actually started making textures.

They look really cool, but I'd tone the blue down a bunch, make it a bit more subtle. (maybe a skin for both versions?)

Now that I'm looking at them the day after, I can see your point, but I was originally going for something like this:

I could go ahead and add a less intense skin though. Maybe for team color purposes.

The blue is the reflection of the seawater on the ice. The ice itself isn't blue.

Stop teasing m8.

Started with a new first stage of pl_coldtop, after massive feedback from today's gameday.

Get it into rc1 or i eat you

Hahah, well I still have to finish my actual layout. After that, beta, after that RC l)

Please don't eat me. I am not tasty.
