<div class="IPBDescription">Includes ingame screenshots</div> I kind of hijacked a thread in the mapping forum (naughty) with this 512x512 version of wall_lab I'm making. Thought it would be best to make a seperate thread for it.

Original version of Wall_lab:

<img src='http://img73.exs.cx/img73/3944/walllaboriginal8bv.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' />

This is the latest update to the texture. This is the one seen ingame. I actually really like this version, because it looks more metallic. The previous versions were rather washed out.

Tada!

Metal properties in action..

Normal mapping. (Note how the bolt looks 3D) Image brightened up a bit.

edit:

Oh yes, there is also specular mapping, which reflects the cubemaps and gives the texture a slight metallic sheen to it, but its only really noticeable when moving.

    Norn, what did you use to make a normal map? I searched, but I only found 1 decent tutorial, and that required for me to buy a program.

    I don't think this texture needs to be this big. Just double the original resolution, as I think the detail in this one isn't that necessary (you're not going to go around staring at the ground). Very sexy work by the way. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Don't these textures have too much shadowing if they are going to have bump-maps on them later on?

    Norm, for the Pre/Selection movie, I had retouched a bunch of textures by mainly re-sizing and clarifying them, but I also created specular, bumpmaps and illuminating materials for them. My bumpmaps are sort of grayscaled so converting them to Normal maps should be too hard to do.

    I would be happy to share them with the community.

    By the way, does HL2:Source handles the transparency the same way as in HL ?

    Pure Blue=transparency region ?

    I had to change that color so Max handles it ok.

    In the mean time, I'll set up the transfer of my textures and PM you with the details.

    [added comments]
    I zipped what I have done so far. It's a 49Meg Zipped file with over 280 files in it. I don't have diskspace on a server to put it in. I have access to a web mail with attachment of 50Meg max.

    Supernorn, you're kicking it <img src='http://homepage.ntlworld.com/andrew.wilkinson37/gfx/smiley/rock.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' />

    I wanna start mapping myself for source, but i can't seem to find a good idea for a map

    One things sure, i'll try mapping for NS:S once it's coming along better

    Keep up the great work !

    About the invisible, its a light grey nowadays. just go to the logos folder in the source folder and then open the tga or vga file and check it out ^____^

    but all i can say is one thing.... darkati is gonna have something stuck up his poop shoot if he doesn't stop mapping like a genious lol.

    Fantastic!
    How exactly are you re-making the textures?
    I'd like to see what some of the control panel textures look like...
    EDIT: I'd like to help out with this. I have Photosop 7, and a drawing tablet.

    Yeah, I'd be interested in helping out with this, i'm just not very experienced in how to add clarity or definition to a resized texture. I have The GIMP, and I'm pretty good at using it, but I don't think I can use the NVIDIA normal map generator unless i have PhotoShop.

    Any tips or links to helpful tutorials would be very appreciated.

    Supernorn, have you downloaded my zipped textures ?

    That space used for it was supposed to be temporary. I must know so I can clear it out.
