Hey there peeps,

For all of those who actually have Source and HL2 installed, i have at last got off my lazy ass and zipped up myfinal college project of a virtual gallery.

It has some hefty custom texture content, the majority of which in the form of digital images i created over the 2 years at the Leeds College of Art and Design/HND Photography and Digital Imaging. Hope you download, and hope you like the art work if not the gallery 'space'.

Took approximately 6 weeks to complete and was an after thought to an initial project idea to develop a MOD for Source and use that as my final major project. As to contradict myself, it isn’t actually 'complete' as such, only enough for the video to 'make sense' and not a run around like you guys will be doing.

14.23 Mb file download:

The video which i used as my final piece, projected and displayed at the college art gallery:

Here is a copy of the ReadMe file. Gotta love it and sorry if it seems contrived and patronising:

::Thanks for taking the time to download and look at my pretty average college project, 'The Virtual Gallery'.

In the .rar you just un-packed, you got yourself the map "virtual_gal_dist.bsp", dist being short for distribution of course. And this shoddy text document!

Feel free to mosey around the space, some useful commands in the console you may find are:

"cl_drawhud 0" which takes out the crosshair,

"mat_wireframe #" lets you inspect the geometry in wire frame,

"POV ##" lets you change the perspective, or point of view (default 75, i find 90 works well, over 130 gets crazy)

"hl2_normspeed ###" lets you adjust the player 'normal speed',
"hl2_sprintspeed ###" need i say more,
"hls_walkspeed ###"


All images within the gallery are work made and tarted up by me in Photoshop or straight onto film, well its digital so, CCD. All images are by law copyrighted to my college, LEEDS COLLEGE OF ART AND DESIGN, however you should send me an email should want to unpack and use any of them and i can give you the go ahead etc.


Any questions etc, send me an email at: [email protected]

Last Note:
A big thanks to all those that helped with the creation of various elements of this Gallery, especially to
Phisionary for his superb work on the 'cube gallery' camera set-up and realisation to flat texture. I also should thank generalvivi and iwannamap.com for much needed guidance and also to all those on interlopers.net, mapcore.net and 3dbuzz.com. ::

PS - Ill be posting this on multiple forums, so don’t be offended it you see it 'out there, everywhere'.
 
I didnt download the map, I just watched the video. But you did a great job, you managed to make a very artistic level. Hope you got a good grade on it, I love it. One time I actualy made my high school in hammer for the cover page of the calendar, kinda simailer I guess.
