[777teg]

how can i make rain in portal 2?

[WatiTheChef]

Every time I see lightning the thunder follows a few seconds later.

[rocketrascal34]

@WatiTheChef Light travels faster than sound.

[WatiTheChef]

@rocketrascal34 Yes, so the thunder should come after the lightning. That is what I was hinting at :p

[heubelmans]

thankyou very cool, where do you download al the brushes, props and models?

[0Blueaura]

how do you make intro map?

[TifgoCS2]

shkabbacks

[kmncztms]

can you help me? I started working on a mod.

It runs on engine 2007, but I can only make maps with engine 2009.

(because I don't have grids while editing with engine 2007)

So, I can't get this func_precipitation working, the rain doesn't appear in the game.

I tried copying the map into hl2, that didn't work either.

Any solutions? :S

[Bsoler97]

skabbax :D

[Richard600606]

your map is epic at the beggining. looks even more epic in HD.

[Richard600606]

SkaBox

[FarmazonK]

[G0zti]

I noticed how you made both skyboxes work together, have you got a tutorial that goes over how to do that?

[rocketrascal34]

@G0zti Of course I do! Tutorial #50

[Nessinby]

@rocketrascal34 the ash is from HL2:EP1 (i think), and I think the snow is for HL2/HL2:EP2....

[816nnm]

@rocketrascal34 whoa there was som1 walking on the intro menu!

[legolasisahobbo]

[Geckoinc2]

How do you tie all of the games into one(hammer)

[chocobofiesta]

[rocketrascal34]

@chocobofiesta Not any good one

[MrFockey]

What do you type to set it as a background?

[iluvrockyroadalot]

/Wants your trees/Log in the water. Lol I've been looking for custom models for awhile... did you make yours or find them somewhere?

[rocketrascal34]

@iluvrockyroadalot EP2, check my site. there is a download.

[Beardactal]

Gnome scared, Thee Hell Outta me. LOL

[per30010]

Im also using a logic case for different lightning sounds and random min-max time on the light

[rocketrascal34]

@per30010 thats how I'm doing it

[scatchntrance]

u forgot to say dont copy bk /lt/ rt /tp or anything else behind the name. it wont load

[PoliceMike55]

You also could use color correction for the lightning.

[rocketrascal34]

@PoliceMike55 Color correction is very costly on the engine. There are also the following problems with it: older video cards do not support it, some people have it disabled, it's costly, it draws no shadows

[sonicpower101]

This guy's Tha fuckin Master

[rek636]

Working on this. How are you doing the thunder. Running a soundscape or having a logic timer to trigger after the "lighting" turns on?

[rocketrascal34]

@rek636 timer with ambient_generics

[ZaMboX98]

Cool

[rocketrascal34]

[xxx0365]

wtf scarry gnome

[POLARHOBO]

How are raindrops done ? there are water droplets that land in a pool of water in the cap room of sawmill_ctf on tf2 and they are a single drop, also if my memory serves me well i think they make ripples on the water

[rocketrascal34]

@POLARHOBO Those are particle systems

[blakeshmuck]

awesome dude, this is insane :)

[rek636]

Hell yes thanks a bunch.

[faszika]

[rocketrascal34]

@faszika my custom content is over 7GB :)

@OnlineDino EP2

[NadeoKing]

Thank you!

Btw, you failed when selecting texture.

=S

[rocketrascal34]

@NadeoKing only alittle :P

[mik3toast]

Nice man did you upload the vmf of the map on your site? Also are the tree sprites on your website cuz I love the forest effect.

[G3org3Master]

You forgot ambient_generic

[rocketrascal34]

@G3org3Master Another tut my friend.

[ordiantakeover]

@sergei291 Program that is called: Snipping tool?

[Armageddon104]

You say skybox funny :P

[Jico762]

When you created the sound effects of the lightning, did you use an ambient_generic with lightning sound effects that trigger at the sime time as the lights? or did you use the soundscaps with lightning and rain? I can't find a place in the tutorial when you teach us how you did the sound effects. Maybe that comes in another tutorial:P

[rocketrascal34]

@Jico762 I used ambient_generics. Ill make another tutorial on it.
