[HLEP2,Gmod] Pripyat [WiP]

[opti2000]

Hey boys and girls its me opti

I just wanna show you my newest one man project: Prypjat

I am a big stalker fan and really fascinated from chernobyl and everything that has to do with it.
And as a passionate mapper i decided, just for fun and my own entertainment, to recreate prypjat.

Well i know i will never be able to get the whole city inside the Hammer grid so i think i will recreate it in parts like

Prypjat West
Prypjat East
Prypjat North
Prypjat South and so on...

Actually i am working all alone on this project and its really huge i know but i just love to create maps

But what are words here are some pictures and i am curious about your feedbacks














Actually im not sure about which time i should use for the map (day/night)
But i am trying to implement a fake day/night cycle with color correction well maybe that looks good.

So what do you think guys?

I think it's spelled Pripyat...

[opti2000]

I think it's spelled Pripyat...

Well sorry in english it is spelled with an "y" like pripyat
But i accidantly used the german form. Germans use an "j" instead of the "y".

But well both words are right only in different languages

Pripyat = Prypjat

Haha squishy I almost laughed sandwich through my nose. It's true, those pictures are way dark, the only thing I can see is the skybox. Have a look at how valve did the night maps in hl2 and left 4 dead. There's more sources of light than you think, and you need to use them to assist with your design.

Yeah, I'm fairly sure Nightmare House 2's skybox should have a higher brightness setting.

[Armageddon]

It's not a Nightmare House 2 skybox it's a very old over used FPSBanana skybox.

[Stormy]

Why do I inherently dislike anything from FPSbanana? I never even go on there...

[Major Banter]

Derp. My bad.
