d'keesto said:This red symbol is the one I was talking about that means the material actually has more than one texture. Sometimes it means it's animated. But only one frame will show up in Hammer.

Already done and sent to d'keesto. I was just posting a sample here. Although i'm taking another whack at it to be more true to the original
Also, thanks for that mapcore link. I've been taking screenshots of them in hammer to get the originals which is a bit more of a pain.

It does when I don't shine my flashlight on it. That screenshot comparison was poor on my part, because the original and replacement have completely different lighting on them.
Well, I have a running setup of all completed materials for the game. I can periodically release the incomplete version of the mod for those who want to take a look. At this point, only about 3.5% of the textures are done, so I don't think it's quite worth it. You'll have to play through the whole game just to see a few updated textures.
Maybe in a week.
Besli said:
This is helpful for comparison, but please keep in mind, these textures are from the original, not Source. The texture dimensions and ratios are different than many of the Source textures because the original game did not require power of two dimensions.
You know, if I have time, maybe I'll set up the same sort of thing with the new texture dimensions. It'd be nice to have them in a Windows folder with all the thumbnails. Much more convenient. It's a step that would have to be done anyway.

Hi guys, new to this forum and saw this really cool, exciting project - so I thought I'd try and chip in...
I didn't download the .wad etc. as I want to make sure this is good enough first.

If you like it I will continue, and do this in the 'on' position aswell.
Cheers and I look forward to hearing your comments.

Sorry for the lack of updates the last two days everyone. I've been working on a huge texture set of concrete pieces, so there's nothing to show for it yet.
Also, I'm setting up a website for this project. I think that will attract more people to contribute, because the information will be in one accessible place where you don't have to navigate through all these pages of posts. I'm also going to use the website to release these texture groups in small zips of jpegs. That'll make it far easier to contribute. You won't have to go through all my convoluted directions.
I'll post info about the website once I get it hosted.

LimeyGeeza, I'd love to have you contribute to the project, these look great!! That being said, some are unusable, because you based the dimensions of the HL wads instead of the HL:S power of two vtfs.
I would say wait for the website to go up, or email me ([email protected]) which texture names you want to do, and I'll send you the correct dimensions.
Here are my critical comments:
The med station looks just a tad cartoony, while we're going for photorealistic. If you kept the same photoshop file and just changed the texture layer to utilize a photo of metal, I think you could get that look.
Those dials and buttons truly look photorealistic. Those are awesome. They just need to be a little more yellow and less orange to match the original color.
In the last one, the blood looks like paint because it's not dark enough. You also omitted the chrome border around the whole sign.
But, wow, these are fantastic!

Comments noted and appreciated...
I totally want to contribute and will wait till you have some more of this stuff organized. I know some are the wrong size - due to me using the original HL textures from the mapcore site (I don't have Hammer installed yet) - so once we get a little more sorted - I will re-do some of these and others - exciting stuff - cool to be involved.
Cheers

Currently redoing all the crates.. Must have nice crates to smash.. Here's a work in progress:
LG, you won't need Hammer once I get the site up. I'll start posting the originals as jpegs in zip files that include only the set of textures that go together. A limited number will be available at a time, so I hope Valve doesn't have a problem with it.
Sdether, looking pretty good! I suggest making the flammable logo look painted onto the wood, though. It looks like an embossed metal plate. I realize the original looks that way a little bit, but I've never seen a crate marked that way in real life. The border looks somewhat un-woody too.
Here's some of what I'm working on:

Are you kidding me - we're doing Valve a favour!
Sounds good though d'keesto - do you have an ETA for this?

I can't wait for this to be done.
ETA is totally dependent on number of contributors, which I expect will increase with the website. With two or three more regular contributors, I expect it to be done in about ten weeks.
As of now, I have completed 142 myself in a week and a half. (I count all files that need to be replaced, so some are repeats of the same texture.) I am spending more time on it than most people probably have. When school starts for me in mid-January, I'll have to cut way back, but hopefully a few more people will have signed on and it'll almost be done by then. There are about 3200 total textures.

Hey LimeyGeeza nice textures! But the health charger texture looks too much like plastic, it should look more like metal!
Very nice crate texture sdether, can't wait to see the rest of them!
Very nice wall textures d'keesto!!
Originals:
Remakes:
(medpack remake by mikezilla,
access screen remade by MrH2o)

Heres a re-do, after comments - (might still not be the right size, but I have at other resolutions too) -
d'keesto - I meant an ETA for the webpage with the HL: Source texture sizes - not the whole project
Personally I have more fun doing the dials, control panels, signs etc for Textures...so thats what I'd like to concentrate on.
Clean '0' position:
Dirty '0' position:
Dirty '+' position:
The old texture is quite 'dirty' when you look at it, the Black Mesa Janitors must have been lazy buggers.
