Drek Media Update

[-smash-]

Have you ever wondered what it was like to drag-race? The smell of burning rubber, the sights and sounds of engines revving. Well, the team working on the Half-Life 2 modification, Drek, are creating this experience with the power of the Source Engine.[br]They have released 2 new renders of some excellent modeling and texturing work of a few vehicles in this mod:[br]

​

[br]The Drek team also wants to welcome their newest mapper, CarbonKid, to the staff.[br]For more information and screenshots on Drek, visit their site here.

Drek? Never heard of it, but those cars look nice :O

 

[Beerdude26]

Woah, looks like those cars have a million polys :O

 

[Chris D]

Looks about the same quality as in that Flatout game... certainly doable on the Source engine. Impressive

 

[Ennui]

Pretty damn nice.

To be honest, no. Cars look great though!

 

[OvA]

It'll be interesting to see how they's make driving fun

Good luck on implmenting THAT technology. At least those cars look fantastic, I just don't want to smell them

drag racing is awsome, i saw some at bristol, but i dunno how to make that into a cool mod, unless you spend so much time in tweaking your cars, manual shifting, etc. its definatly more like an rpg

I want...guns,lots of guns.


I'd rather a see vehicular combat based mod on the source engine then something like "Flatout".

Nice models though.

OMG just saw their site... The guy that made that probably also designed http://www.csszengarden.com/ :O

OMG I have the best secret Idea for that completely fleshed out. It'll be the next Mod I make (in, say, 2 years' time).

 

[Gusdor]

Im not sure how the gameplay will be but that art looks FANTASTIC

 

[Betelgeuze]

Good stuff! Nothing bad to say about the models.

 

[PriNcE oF SpAcE]

very nice models and textures...

I wonder if they can get the car physics to be right though....better not be using any of the code from HL2...IMO the buggy's handling in HL2 was horrible...

Aww
This remembers me of a game me and some friends used to play on HL2DM, we spawned buggies for everyone except one person and then played RoadKill à la Halo
But one day a Steam update completely ****ed up the steering, goodbye RoadKill
