Read the entire thread... more pics at the last page.

That is so cool. Like that video a little bit ago, "City 17", adding the models to pictures/video.

 

[BabyHeadCrab]

pretty sechsy

 

[jimbo118]

that is very impressive alright, almost scary, the combine 1 i mean.

 

[A True Canadian]

Oh

My

God

!!!!!

 

[Ennui]

They seriously look like costumes. Half-Life 2's detail is amazing.

I thought it WAS someone sitting on the bed in that one pic for a minute! truly amazing what "our" little game engine can pull off

 

[Ames]

Not game engine, 3DS Max.

Unfortunately it isn't source doing any of that - it's all rendered in 3D Studio Max

What is promising is that with a lighting upgrade, source could look quite dandy!

 

[Paintballer]

They're renders... not in source btw

 

[Greatgat]

The Combine have horrible fashion sense. I mean, look at those sheets!

He extracted the combine model using gcfscape, imported it into 3d studio max, rendered it using a third party plugin renderer using HDR, making sure the light source on the model matched the lighting in the room. He then added the combine into the picture of the bed using photoshop. This is a few days old, I read about this on another forum - and it's rather cool. Supposedly it's for a short movie he and some friends are making.

A few points: It is a render, not the product of a fancy video card, it is not a life-size combine costume, it does not use the Source engine in any way, it does not use bloom, it does not use the Source engine's version of HDR. The backgrounds are not 3d models, they are photos.

Also I don't remember for sure but I think the creator subdivided a few faces on the model to smooth it out, he definately did for the one he did of the vortigaunt.

Yeah it is definately very awesome, especially the movie bit.

Gorgon, I will admit, you are one hell of a kick-ass-person-thingger.

incredible stuff
new wallpaper yoink!

 

[Noobulon]

new wallpaper yoink!

Quality! :sniper:

About that piccy of the combine sitting on the bed - are those textures (edit: on the combine) all taken from HL2? Or has the guy made his own hi-res textures? It looks too good...

 

[Dumb Dude]

In ALL those pictures the backrounds are REAL (except for somtimes the sky). Its just a picture he takes of his house and all he does is add the model to it with matching lighting.

Yeah, that's what I was wondering.

*goes into HL2 to check*

 

[JellyWorld]

thanks.

 

[The Monkey]

Are all you guy being ironic or something? Can't you see that it's justa a bunch of dolls?

 

[$kelet0r]

no it was done in 3d max its all virtual only the backgrounds are real

 

[baron insig]

on the actual post made by the guy who did it, the one where the combine elite is knocking on the door, i tactually looks real

 

[theGreenBunny]

Looks great. The models are not really directly from HL2 by the way, he smoothed them a lot:

I just took the models from the game. Of course, I smoothened the hell out of them so that's why they look a little different...

 

[Maxi]

Looks really nice

 

[T.H.C.138]

oops! I didn't read the thread at that other place..just looked at the pics

but Gorgon is right...HL3 will do it!! :E

the gman 1 is quality.

 

[B-MAn]

;O just amazing. i've never notced the amount of detail on the fast zombies before

 

[RakuraiTenjin]

I want this in game. Seriously. It brings a tear to my eye with how beautiful it is.

Edit: Just realized something.

I hope they don't make their movie the 7 Hour War but end up using human overwatch forces, etc. They wouldn't exist until AFTER the 7 hour war, during it the human conventional armies would be fighting the Combine's synths such as striders, mortar synths, etc.

God damn i need a better graphics card
