Quote from Arachnaphob on June 27, 2014, 1:37 pmPerfect. I actually have less foliage than it appears. Note:
Water on floor
Displacement with lots of moss painted on
Moss overlays (harder to see)
Destruction props that mix in with plants
Also, when I took that pic, I had max settings on, and great fps.
And don't worry. When you enter the test, I'll close the room with an areaportal.

The Locker room area is the first place where you see large parts of destruction, which will become more common and frequent, until the end of that chapter.(Also please excuse the skybox seam, It's a hl2 base game one and I haven't figured out what is causing it.)

Quote from RustyDios on June 29, 2014, 4:55 amThat looks really cool... I'm not sure the "fizzler prison gates" fit with the rest of the map concept. They seem too "advanced and scientific" for the general old and rusty prison area. Maybe it might be because there are no visible emitters? .. You create a good "old emitter" effect with some ropes/cables, glow sprites and the "rocket" model (if the old aperture fizzler emitters don't fit the theme/space/area.. like here)
I love the look of that hole in the locker room roof, I'd love to be able to create things like that myself...
