Raising the Bar is a mod based off of the idea of amalgamating the earliest concepts of Half-Life 2 into a coherent story. This mod is not a leak-fix, nor is it a concept art recreation gallery; it will be a full story with inspiration from the old material as well as our own ideas of how to make it all fit together.
Trainstation
FINALLY somebody makes a map of this! I've always wanted to see this concept created in SDK. Great work!
I've been thinking the same!
I'm afraid that I don't like it, maybe some railings and some supports can be added
Dont worry pal this is WIP ;p I havent even maked concept art train and this all will be changed we didnt have alot of time to work on the mod ;)
And don't forget all new ambient sounds! Courtesy of AmbientNoise ;)
Also, those train tracks, they don't seem to fit here as it is floating in mid air and look outdated. Textures can also be improved too.
agreed but none the less its a great start.
Actually the tracks are just about right: Images.wikia.com
As for the textures: Don't worry, those are still WIP ;)
Well the concept art looks right, but that's because the thick beams of the track goes into the platform and looks more secured.
This only has the thick beam touching the rails and not the platform, hence the floating look.
Edit: maybe it's the blue light makes it look better. And the space between the thick beams should be closer abit.
Any way I can try to get into beta testing for this mod?
Remember to add color correction to get the HL2 Leak's blue-greenish color!
I say add some cold steel details and darken the lighting a bit. And you should add those windows seen on the left side of the concept art.
Great recreation! Now all we need is that green lighting.
