Tons and tons of matches here- even the original photoshop files for a lot of the textures, so we can see how they were layered!

Marlin has a ton of other textures as well. The Valve community for HL2 is still looking for some textures that are missing.

^ This, I was actually looking for this server for this exact reason. Fans of the Leak are up in arms over it especially!

So far, with the Marlin Studios textures, we have a good percentage of most of the source engine's texture sources, but with the earlier stuff like within the beta, there are still some unknown textures that have yet to be sourced back to a collection

Edd 25-Sep-21 05:28 PM

Well, I meant, up in arms over not having them. I'm bad with words.

Security Officer The Fonz 25-Sep-21 05:28 PM

isn't too bad at least. It could always be worse.

Nah, the civvies were people volvo photographed. That wouldn't come out of a library. (edited)

TechnoCookie 25-Sep-21 05:32 PM

male_07 REAL!?

Security Officer The Fonz 25-Sep-21 05:34 PM

The most we have of the civvies are from the photos we got in the Raising the Bar magazine from Prima when HL2 released

TechnoCookie 25-Sep-21 05:36 PM

That makes me wonder if people were used as reference for HL1 as well

Edd 25-Sep-21 05:37 PM

probably not

TechnoCookie 25-Sep-21 05:37 PM

Thought so

They always looked hand drawn

Edd 25-Sep-21 05:37 PM

half-life has a very "drawn" look to it, even with the texture references that were used, yea (edited)

Security Officer The Fonz 25-Sep-21 05:38 PM

Half life 1's characters were all made in a image editor

Edd 25-Sep-21 05:38 PM

although there was a WIP guard that looked like Ted Backman, and Freeze was based on Barney Fife

Security Officer The Fonz 25-Sep-21 05:40 PM

That's mostly as far as it goes in terms of basing appearances, they were references rather then actual photos of people

Edd 25-Sep-21 05:42 PM

forgot to add that part.

Edd 26-Sep-21 11:53 PM

I need more leads on this water droplet! It matches the Breen's Reserve vending machine, and appears to be fairly common (ie: not lost) (edited)

1

the borders on the original texture of the machine appear to imply it isn't cropped, and these are the furthest it's bounds go.

Yoo nice find, hope we see more Half-Life stuff in the future
