A friend of mine JonM, who made sd_force, lb_snowlake, de_sidewinder (All half-life maps), just released this amazing work in only 3DStudioMax, he did all the texturing himself, it was just so realistic I wanted to show.

Wow. That is really impressive! I wish my skills in rendering were that good.

The question is how well it works in motion.

My first thought on seeing that was, "Well, that isn't a very interesting photograph."

THen I realized it wasn't a photograph.

Shame to see such talent wasted on halflife mapping.

It's the ground tiles on the left hand side that gives it away. The rest is almost flawless.

But tis a greater shame that has nothing to do with Half-life.

It's also the brightness and the crispness of every other texture.

While its true the ground looks a little flat... I too thought it was a boring photo until I read it wasnt a real one.

No Graffitti clued me in ;-p

Nah. Those whose seen rendered imagery for 10+ years can almost sense this.

Still, fantastic work for your friend, introduce him to use.

I hope he makes HL2 maps.

I could tell it was rendered when I first clicked on this thread, and I haven't seen rendered imagery for 10+ years.

It's still a good render, though.

The flags over the sign need work as well. Real ones of that type are thin plastic film and flutter in any sort of breeze.
