Places From Film

Description
If you like the music, here's the OST![soundcloud.com]

Also if you'd like to see the photos that inspired some of the areas I've made a little album here![photos.app.goo.gl]

This is the more or less finalized version of that WIP build I uploaded a little while ago, did some polishing and added a bit of detail here and there. Plus I've managed to get it so that you only need to have HL2 and the episodes mounted!

REQUIRED GAMES
  • HL2EP1
  • HL2EP2

Places From Film started as a complete do-over of a failed map that I borked so hard it doesn't compile in anything other than fast, whoops. It's main goal was to learn some of the basics of Hammer editing and also make small vignettes based on random photos I've taken on film and the like, as well as to play around with creating some novel spaces as well. It's all very dreamlike for the most part, I just wanted to make a barely coherent map where you end up looping back on yourself and crossing over paths from different perspectives some times.

All music in this map is made by myself and is fully excluded from youtube content ID and the like, I don't like the idea of it so I never actually put my music into its database. If you stream or make videos or any of that funky stuff you're all good to go. You'll find most of the music by pressing use on radios and jukeboxes scattered around the map.

Includes such fun features as:
  • Random back room areas for various buildings
  • Weird concrete spaces
  • Hopefully decent music
  • Photo gallery somewhere
  • Euclid weeping
  • Architecture that I just think is neat
  • A funky TV
  • Breakable glass
  • Packed files for your enjoyment
  • NO ENTRY
  • A fairly reasonably large map in general with lots of weird connections between areas

I'm probably going to keep an eye out for any serious bugs and fix em as time goes on, but this is a more than stable enough release so feel free to check it out! I'll probably move on to a new map after this, and I might actually pack and upload that terribly optimized map that predates this one. It's kinda cool in a janky way lmao

Thanks librarian :D

@Medajoltz I've been thinking about trying to learn navmeshing and all the node stuff, I might try that on a smaller map I've been tinkering with and then try and retrofit this one. So yeah hopefully I can figure it out and add it in haha!

@Own Doing thanks so much! cross signal was a fun one to make, I'm hoping to get back into music soon and my next map should have a few bangers in it (hopefully lol)

I've been listening to your music. "Program one - Cross Signal" and "Apartment 305" are so good! You are talented.

Great map! Were you thinking of adding a navmesh?

i dont have any mods that change any of the textures, this is a glitch ive had for a while on multiple maps that i dont really know how to fix i got cs source i got all half life episodes tbh i dont really know

@sea cucumbers unfortunately I'm not sure, all the used textures should be packed. Maybe there's a conflict somewhere with another addon?

Added some links to the description to all but one of the music tracks used in the map, as well as to a photo album of the shots I used as inspiration for the map! Thanks so much for the kind words everyone, I'm so excited to make the next map!
