Deskripsi
Edits to base Half-Life 2 materials to be more physically accurate and look prettier.

[This addon is heavily work-in-progress; everything is subject to change! Screenshots may be outdated. There are tons of materials that I haven't done yet. This addon wasn't intended to be uploaded early.]
[If you installed this while Garry's Mod is running, it's highly recommended to restart your game.]

Phong and rimlight has been added to some materials. A few materials using cubemap reflections also got an upgrade, now making use of phong and fresnel for the best possible reflections. Some world textures also now make use of the new phong support. Additionally, some materials can now be seen from both sides, instead of becoming invisible when viewing from the other side. This can make or break the appearance of some props. It fixes the appearance of some props, such as the trainstation trash can or transparent objects, but props with missing sides will now appear as if they were hollow.

It should be compatible with many simple reskins, as long as they don't replace the VMTs.

Keep in mind that materials now make heavier use of shaders, so this can decrease graphics performance, especially on weaker hardware.

The map in some screenshots is gm_genesis.

Key Features
  • Phong and rimlight added to materials that previously didn't have it where possible, including world textures.
  • Materials using cubemap reflections now have phong to make reflections a little more dynamic where possible.
  • Rimlight on all materials using phong for fake diffuse reflections.
  • Fresnel added to some materials using cubemaps (reflection appears stronger with viewing angle).
  • Removed saturation and contrast modifiers from cubemap reflections, as it's not physically accurate.
  • Many materials no longer have culling. You will notice that a lot of the HL2 models will have their faces able to be seen from both sides now.
  • Workaround for some materials with severe aliasing issues, especially world textures. This requires MSAA set to at least 2x in-game and antialiasing transparency set to supersampling in your graphics control panel. It may cause significantly increased GPU utilization.
  • Displacements can be seen from both sides now for visibility purposes.

Unneeded Addons
When using this addon, the following addons aren't needed and will conflict, as this addon applies the same changes:

Known Issues
  • Materials using $envmapmask don't have phong (won't fix).
  • Will conflict with other addons replacing VMTs that this addon replaces. To make this addon take priority, unsubscribe from the conflicting addon and resubscribe to it.
  • Some textures are black for some people for an unknown reason.
  • Materials using $alphatest are invisible when using mat_fullbright 2.

Planned
  • Use a more accurate fake PBR method.
  • Enhance more materials.

Not lately, but it's not abandoned. I'm working on a different project right now. I also want to come up with a new fake PBR method at some point. The current one is not very good, so I don't really wanna add more materials until then.

Are you still working on this mod?

For world textures, yes, since upscaling world textures requires editing the VMTs to lower their texture size to not be enlarged. For models, it will if it has its own VMT replacements.

Does this addon conflict with addons that upscale the textures?
somefoolouthere  [pembuat] 16 Jan @ 7:35am 
I don't know what could be causing this issue, since everything works fine for me.
Akis_02 16 Jan @ 7:32am 
yes, its consistant

Did you try restarting your game after installing it?

the skybox models become black after installing this mod :P

i just wanna mention some of the materials (mainly the metal closet ones) do break with Improved Default Cubemap enabled

I respect your enthusiasm, but unfortunately, many have asked and many have failed to get Rubat to backport several long-needed shaders. It's been this way for a while now.
Mans is devoted to minute Lua fixes, i guess.
