I'm trying to get a job @ Nightwatch as a Texture Artist

aside of Insurgency (http://www.insurgencymod.net) were I am LD & 2D artist.

So basicly I'm remaking some old HL textures.

First I make them 512 px and I change them to 256 px once they are finished.



OLD

128x160





NEW

256 x 256

NEW

384x512 (high quality)





192x256

wow.. remake all of the "used" textures, and I'll prolly make an hldm map with the "standar" textures :-o



That orange color is a little to strong I think..

[mikezilla]

um you're not using powers of two which reak havoc on video cards



remember kids



2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512 ONLY!!!!!!

crai. could have at least worked in powers of 2! (edit: mikey beat me on that one )



I think you used the sharpen filter too much as they all seem too grainy to me. Your bevels/edges are too clean and straight.

Oh mikey!



Seriously though I like this idea, everyone jump on it!

I think he just "copied" the sizes from the originals (they're not powers of 2 either), as that's easier to work. They're not meant to be used in a map anyway (correct me if I'm wrong), so it doesn't really matter.



Other than that, looking good! I agree the organe is a tad too strong.

About the power of 2 thingie... I just took the sizes of the default textures and resized the largest side to 512 :/ Thanks for the comments

Delaz if you could post a few various HL base textures for us to start with that'd be brilliant - as some of us haven't had it installed for years now.

the orange is a bit strong, but my first thought was "rad" so i like it

[FrieChamp]

Oh I dig those textures, nice Delaz~

[DelaZ]

A little bit to "overdone" ...



OLD

96 x 96





NEW

512 x 512





256 x 256

[kleinluka]

Those look pretty good. I think the teal lab-wall textures are probably too concrete / dirty though to be used in a hi-tech laboratory, especially considering how it is used at the beginning of Half-Life.
