Garry's Mod

[lament quartz]

also could you keep the other starry one too?

pesnive emoji

[subtle bison]

im not replacing them in the pack yet lol

im just doing them as one-offs

[lament quartz]

oka

and all im saying here is,, star timelapse

[subtle bison]

🤤

[lament quartz]

WOAH

[subtle bison]

i made it pop a bit more, let me know if its too much lol

[lament quartz]

nah it works lol

[subtle bison]

so this one to replace night i assume lol

[lament quartz]

yea

[subtle bison]

place the files in the rtx-remix/mods/hdri folder, replace when asked

you shouldnt have to reboot the game

remix reloads the mod.usda when its modified

[lament quartz]

heyooo

[subtle bison]

looks sick

now the ice just needs to reflect

[lament quartz]

Yea

I'll try to do that when I get home

[subtle bison]

🤤

[keen rivet]

i have it hight because portal with rtx uses high

hash compatibility sounds like a good to have

[keen rivet]

wow

[subtle bison]

btw i uh @keen rivet

uhh

https://github.com/Xenthio/gmod-rtx-binary/releases/tag/gmrtx64_0.1

🙂

the good news is that we got a lot of testing

[lament quartz]

[keen rivet]

oh nice

it was getting pretty decently usable already so

[subtle bison]

yeah, a lot of people talked about the lack of a skybox so that's on my high priority list

as well as displacements

niknaks has some libs for them

[keen rivet]

yeah i tried looking into it (skybox)

unsure how to stop just the drawing of the world
might need to somehow hook into that function and return

[subtle bison]

yeah that's one way. I was thinking about doing a lua renderhook and render a custom skybox lmao

it would use the original map's skybox textures as well

[keen rivet]

oh yeah that would also work too lol

[keen rivet]

i was thinking this because you could also keep displacements and anything else that isnt replaced or drawn properly

[subtle bison]

oh yea tru

[keen rivet]

no idea if brush entities and stuff are drawn with the custom renderer

[subtle bison]

they are but they're static

so you when you open a brush door it looks like its not moving

[keen rivet]

yeah i feared that

so yeah maybe thats what is the best solution

[subtle bison]

im definitely behind moving all of it to the binary module

i dont really forsee any way to handle brush entities seperately from the world in lua lol

it might be possible but that custom renderer is already super heavy

[keen rivet]

yeah

i'm afraid i'm not contributing enough to the project lol tbh

you seem to be zooming through all the new stuff lol

[wanton scarab]

trying to stop drawing of the 3d skybox?

[keen rivet]

trying to stop drawing everything that is static world

[subtle bison]

sometimes desperation is a great motivator

[wanton scarab]

there is a way i think

uhhh

sec

https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/GM:PreRender

[keen rivet]

can you just return in there or something

[wanton scarab]

mhm

[keen rivet]

oh

[subtle bison]

nice

[keen rivet]

is that for everything?

[wanton scarab]

yea

[keen rivet]

or just static world geo

[wanton scarab]

if you return true it's all just black

[keen rivet]

oh we need static world geo only damn

[subtle bison]

yeah then we're back to depending on niknaks

i cache the static world geo before disabling the world rendering

[keen rivet]

which means we need to do more detouring or hooks

[subtle bison]

wish i could directly import all the reverse engineering knowledge into my brain

otherwise its gonna be some painful nights in ghidra or IDA

[keen rivet]

😔

im not even sure where world rendering is done?

[subtle bison]

wish we knew someone at facepunch who could add a cvar to fully disable culling in the engine

[lapis delta]

also, remix's menu is usable only when youn in gmod's menu

[keen rivet]

i kinda "know" people but like lol they wouldn't wanna touch gmod

[wanton scarab]

the one person working on gmod is uh

difficult

[keen rivet]

unless @sage pagoda hello

[subtle bison]

cant do much with that, we dont have a bridge anymore to handle input

i use a r_drawvgui bind to hide vgui before i use the rtx menu

[lapis delta]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1116089843479498782/1323805892180836402/nurgle.gif

[subtle bison]

yep

lmfao

that got me

🤣

[wanton scarab]

i dont need a sky anyway

[subtle bison]

apparently VIS according to google but i could be wrong

[subtle bison]

my hdri skydomes would like a word with you

[wanton scarab]

i would like to have a word with them as well

but they refuse to behave :[

[subtle bison]

https://github.com/sambow23/hdri_cube

did you try the newest changes

[wanton scarab]

sec

[subtle bison]

i would reinstall everything clean too

[keen rivet]

facepunch hire me so i can do like the few engine changes i want then i'll leave

[subtle bison]

lmfao

just like some valve contractors

👁️

[subtle bison]

cl_enable_rtx when

one cvar for full remix support

[wanton scarab]

hell ill be happy for rubat to just add this already https://github.com/Facepunch/garrysmod-requests/issues/2564

it's crazy that this has been doable in the orange box branch for at least 10 years

[keen rivet]

i asked rubat a while back if he was interested in implementing a few of the things portal with rtx needed to work and he said something like "probably not, but give them my email" and it never went anywhere

[keen rivet]

yet again this image

[wanton scarab]

fr

[keen rivet]

i mean you wont get anywhere if you dont try

[wanton scarab]

with rubat?

you wont get anywhere if you try

[keen rivet]

dont be mean he works hard on gmod

[wanton scarab]

no dice

[keen rivet]

i think his fear is introducing something new and needing to maintain it and anything it might affect which just sucks

[subtle bison]

follow this

see if your hashes match mine

the box should have the same color for each preset

[wanton scarab]

see it does have the same color for every preset

but not the same color as in the video

also my world hashes arent stable

[subtle bison]

something is brokey on the game end then

it means its not loading the pre-cached textures

https://github.com/sambow23/hdri_cube/tree/main/garrysmod/data

these need to be in your data folder

[wanton scarab]

they are they are

[subtle bison]

hmm

try that lol

its from a working install

[sage pagoda]

I do not work on Garry’s mod

[keen rivet]

fair enough shot missed

[subtle bison]

if it still isnt working then another addon is messing it up

[sage pagoda]

Just deleted Mac branch for that blunder

[keen rivet]

WHAT!!!!!!

[subtle bison]

lmfao

[wanton scarab]

i've disabled all

[subtle bison]

https://tenor.com/view/orange-cat-gets-flung-and-explodes-orange-cat-funny-cat-meme-explodes-gif-10706110874965244466

[wanton scarab]

unless it's a local one

sec lemme delete all local ones

yea nope

welp

who knows

im on rdna3

i shouldn't even be getting this far anyway

[subtle bison]

not sure then, its working for other folks, 32-bit and 64-bit

[wanton scarab]

wait but non skypaint skyboxes are supposed to work right?

[subtle bison]

on x64?

[wanton scarab]

ye

[subtle bison]

sort of

we use a custom world renderer for static world geometry and we have to fully disable world rendering, which means bye bye skybox

when you load into some maps, the 1st frame of the skybox still shows

but it follows your camera like its stuck place

so tl;dr no unless you want culling showing up by disabling the custom renderer

[wanton scarab]

aw

[subtle bison]

if we had actual engine patches to disable culling, we'd stop using it but we're in a weird place atm

[wanton scarab]

couldn't we draw a skybox cube in lua?

[subtle bison]

yeah i mentioned doing that earlier

[wanton scarab]

https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/GM:PreDrawSkyBox

[subtle bison]

depends on how remix handles multiple cameras and renderhooks

also how would get get remix to think its the sky

that part might be the hardest lol

[keen rivet]

wonder what exactly is being replaced here for the 32 bit binaries

[wanton scarab]

wouldn't just marking them as sky textures work

[subtle bison]

it might, but that didnt work for my HDRI sphere

[wanton scarab]

damn

[subtle bison]

i believe we still need r_forcenovis

i think we already have the other patches

[keen rivet]

it has a string with it and some steps so

might be able to replicate it

[earnest yew]

blueamulet is secretive

[earnest yew]

[earnest yew]

wait so

[subtle bison]

guh

[earnest yew]

can i make it so lights dont turn on when im near em

and distant lights

etc

[subtle bison]

you mean fix light cullimg?

pretty sure it works fine on x64, i havent noticed any issues

[earnest yew]

ig

[subtle bison]

looks like you got it working

[lapis delta]

btw, what's about culling without custom world rendering?

[subtle bison]

we're missing critical engine patches to fully disable culling, so i made my own map renderer with lua and meshes

[earnest yew]

spoooooky

[subtle bison]

it has issues that may or may not be fixed

[fallow mesa]

thanks

[lapis delta]

oh, and how long will it take to fix?

[subtle bison]

looks like your encode is broken

only 1st 2 seconds play

[earnest yew]

obs is fucking

awesome

[subtle bison]

no idea, the skybox not rendering might be extremely difficult to fix

[wanton scarab]

run ur vid through Handbrake

[subtle bison]

thats why i made the hdri editor

you can at least spawn a sky

[earnest yew]

gyatt gyatt gyatt

[subtle bison]

so this is everything after following my instructions on the github exactly?

[earnest yew]

si senor

[subtle bison]

this looks like you're missing remix fixes

and the binary module stuff

[lapis delta]

ui would be fucked up without fixes, so i think it's not

[subtle bison]

ill open cs_office myself on a clean x64 build

let's see

[earnest yew]

gyatt gyatt gyatt

[subtle bison]

oh they are broken in cs_office

[fallow mesa]

do you know why?

[subtle bison]

same image twice

css

[lament quartz]

Why does it look like the same ss copied twice, same cube placement and everything

Oop lol

[subtle bison]

because windows clipboard moment

[lament quartz]

Yea

Css looks better lowkeyc

[subtle bison]

no, 0 idea

its something to do with render targets

because i use those to render the pre-cache texture

[earnest yew]

epicc

[subtle bison]

how is there no culling

oh there is

yea nothing on the lua end is loading at all lol

[earnest yew]

it looks good tho

#epic

[subtle bison]

worse than 32-bit 💀

[earnest yew]

it runs better

31 years times better actually

[subtle bison]

yea cuz you have full culling enabled 💀

so its either have the game looking good or have swiss cheese holes in your map

[earnest yew]

sigma sigma boy

[lapis delta]

fucking scream at the end

i literally jumped

[earnest yew]

whoops

[lapis delta]

[subtle bison]

isnt this whole map like a mesh

[earnest yew]

maybe idk

[subtle bison]

static props still cull outside the view frustrum

idk if i can fix that

[earnest yew]

i feel like im missing something

[subtle bison]

nah if that map doesnt use brush details at all my custom world renderer wont help lmao

this look like a CS2 map

[earnest yew]

nah even in like actual maps

[lament quartz]

@subtle bison my friend has a message for you about your hdri stuff

[keen rivet]

@subtle bison i think this is the function we need

OH YEAH!

[subtle bison]

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-laugh-clap-gif-18203230752197306459

[keen rivet]

its optimised :(

so we cant easily replace it

[subtle bison]

yeah i thought so

[earnest yew]

in the 64 bit one it is?

[subtle bison]

i noticed the same issue when porting some tf2 64-bit stuff to gmod

really hurt

😭

[earnest yew]

https://tenor.com/view/blud-gif-12643126864265338406

[lapis delta]

what about world culling?

[keen rivet]

i think if we hook into that function

we can set it back somehow afterwards

how do i get the signature of it so i can hook into it

[lapis delta]

im on that koosh and alcohol

[subtle bison]

i believe its just the memory address and the surrounding area

nah i dont think that's right

[keen rivet]

0x1802D99A0 ?

[subtle bison]

nah like the actual hex addresses

so whatever the function you're hooking into

i believe ida will auto highlight them if you select the text in the IDA View-A

claude helped me do signature stuff in the past, its still a little over my head

I use ComfyUI to upscale and do emission(emissive) in Photoshop.

[earnest yew]

all i want is the emissions lowk

[keen rivet]

Wait these had.... they already had 64bit patches @subtle bison

are they broken i forgor

[subtle bison]

💀

nah i think they work but we're still missing a few

[drifting hinge]

I js twisted my ankle in gmodrtx

[keen rivet]

OK SO

THE GAME JUST CRASHES WHEN I

DISABLE VIS

[drifting hinge]

Insanity

[earnest yew]

i made hash brown

[kind kraken]

@subtle bison for actually implementing the HDRi, how are you doing it? Are you bringing a sphere into GMOD then applying the emissive onto it, then tagging it as sky?

I'm at the final step really, I have a .dds ready

or are you spawning a giant sphere parented to an object in the game

[lament quartz]

I mean ik it's parented at least

Because of the hdri cube

[kind kraken]

so it's a big sphere parented to the cube spawned inside gmod?

that would explain how you can rotate it

[lament quartz]

Yuh

Idk if the sphere itself is an in game object or of its remix side i only know it's parented and controlled by the sphere

[subtle bison]

yea, but minus the marked as sky part

marking it as sky breaks emission for some reason

[subtle bison]

the sphere is entirely in remix

the texture hashes is what i attach to

[lament quartz]

Makes sense

[kind kraken]

wouldn't the texture hashes require the API

[subtle bison]

nope

[kind kraken]

I thought you could only use model hashes from the toolkit

[subtle bison]

on my dev 64-bit build, i can generate textures using source's render target system, it then saves those as a cached png for the game to load the next time so i always have the same texture hash

its why i have a color selector in the HDRI editor UI

so each color is a unique hash that i can parent the HDRI sphere to

99% of the remix work is editing the mod.usda

im just duplicating entries and changing hashes and hdri texture names

[kind kraken]

sounds like I'll have to use a different method. We modded SWRC's renderer to place a unique global tri for every level, so I could just parent the one sphere to that?

[subtle bison]

anything unique to spawn the sphere

as long as the hash is stable and nothing else uses it, that works

texture or model

[kind kraken]

sounds like I have a plan then. Will quickly throw together a sphere in blender

[kind kraken]

wait what are you editing in the .usda?

[subtle bison]

its nothing that cant be done in the toolkit

but editing the file itself is MUCH easier

i can copy transforms and stuff between hashes

[lament quartz]

All I know is hdri makes my game look good but stabs my laptop in the chest 23 times

[subtle bison]

easy to duplicate stuff

yes because we are literally emulating the fucking sky

no smoke or mirrors

its going to be heavy

[lament quartz]

I know i wasn't even complaining

[subtle bison]

i just like that we have completely natural world lighting in a video game

insane 🤯

[lament quartz]

Okay

[kind kraken]

not the cleanest reference but the highlighted portion is the size of the level. How's this size of sphere?

[lament quartz]

[subtle bison]

probably fine, mine is super tiny and i just scaled it in the toolkit

[kind kraken]

oh yeah good point lol

[subtle bison]

the issue is adjusting it until the emissive light actually projects onto the world

that by far took the longest

the transforms and scale have to be just right

and the toolkit is much slower with updating the light than the runtime for whatever reason

[kind kraken]

maybe the toolkit doesn't use RR whereas you are in the runtime

[subtle bison]

yeah prob

[kind kraken]

they use a different denoiser for emissives that's quite slow when not using RR

[subtle bison]

the light takes longer to reach the map the bigger it is too

and the toolkit bugs out the emission when adjusting it

trust me it took like a day or two with just the toolkit

i almost gave up

it might be easier for you to retrofit my mod to yours

[subtle bison]

also another BIG thing, do not change the emissive intensity past 1

otherwise clipping

[lament quartz]

Anyways good night, I made a meme off of this, its silly or smthn

[kind kraken]

lovely lol. Last question before I give it a quick test, how did you UV map your sphere mesh? I imagine a sphere project would be the right one to use

[subtle bison]

didnt map it at all

[kind kraken]

[subtle bison]

i quite literally exported a basic-ass sphere and the HDRIs wrapped fine first time

[kind kraken]

progress lol

[keen rivet]

:(

[keen rivet]

wait, so

where is better for remix?

[half viper]

i foound out what was chrashhing my shit its fire not the rpg

[lapis delta]

evil fire

[drifting hinge]

who up evilling they fire rn

[prime ridge]

theres a slight chance I may have messed up the installer process somehow

just a little bit

[drifting hinge]

wrong construct

[prime ridge]

OHHH

lmfao

[drifting hinge]

[lament quartz]

I mean besides not setting the playermodel and sky texture i don't see anything wrong

[drifting hinge]

fuckkkk i love not playing on gm_construct

[prime ridge]

maybe I have conflicting nvidia profile settings going on from enabling ambient occlusion in non rtx

Im also stupid so

[drifting hinge]

mmm today i will install gmod rtx without reading anything about it

[prime ridge]

oh ive tried it before and read the readme, I just tried the installer today

[lament quartz]

Do you know how to set textures? That's the only problem I see

[prime ridge]

i dont actually how would I go about that?

[drifting hinge]

https://tenor.com/view/gemini31292-black-guy-man-fall-gif-12223831761413776573

[lament quartz]

Alright do hit alt+x, at the bottom of the popup will be developer menu

Also ignore scronch lol he's not very helpful

[prime ridge]

I can tell lmfao

[lament quartz]

Anyways after you open up the developer menu go to game settings and you should see a bug list of textures (it's the second tab)

[drifting hinge]

how it feels to kill clueless people

[lament quartz]

If you click on the player you can see a longer list of different settings, you want to look for the one called player model texture and click that

For the grass you want to go over and change either the grass or the sand doing the same method but clicking decal texture instead

But don't click the arms as that's a view model @prime ridge

[prime ridge]

alright im gettin it now

[drifting hinge]

boy getting a neuron activation

[lament quartz]

Alright

[prime ridge]

the help is appreciated

[lament quartz]

Of course !

I gotta make more mods

[drifting hinge]

so... no models?

[livid rapids]

nycity on 64bit

funky shit going on with the skybox

[drifting hinge]

its beautiful

[livid rapids]

oh and custom world rendering makes some stuff otherwise invisible, visible

[drifting hinge]

it do that

[livid rapids]

no cwr vs cwr

[drifting hinge]

why is it there

[livid rapids]

I'm guessing precaching since these trains go around the whole map

[subtle bison]

they're probably brush entities

at this point the custom world render does not exclude any brush geometry so it renders all of it statically

[drifting hinge]

oh its CR

[half viper]

yup rpg is fixed for me but fire is now a problem

[drifting hinge]

uhhh how many addons yo got

[half viper]

only maps

[drifting hinge]

uhh idk what causing it then

did you clean reinstall

so you dont have rtx fixes and its dependencies installed?

i would also wait for a new version of skurtyyskirts's script to come out

[livid rapids]

only hands, dont use pm otherwise pseudoplayer WILL crash your game on map load

[drifting hinge]

how did you do it

[livid rapids]

cod games have a pbr pipeline similar to roughness metallic

you just dump the materials you want, convert the mats via gameimageutil and some manual processes, ingest them and they're basically ready to use

[drifting hinge]

ohhhh myy gawwdd

the atts done too?

[livid rapids]

on usp yes

xm4 is wip

[drifting hinge]

bro you a real one for this

[livid rapids]

oh no sights tho, that's mwb base

[drifting hinge]

sights are for losers

mannn which you gonna do after xm4

[livid rapids]

bo6 ak and maybe the shotgun

[drifting hinge]

t h e s h o t g u n

[livid rapids]

thing is most mw3 and mw2 weapons have ass mats

[drifting hinge]

how

[livid rapids]

and the more interesting ones like the mors are a pain in the ass to do

multiple materials per barrel and shit

[drifting hinge]

[livid rapids]

most are very rough and uninteresting

NOT AS ROUGH AS THE CS2 STUFF THO...

[drifting hinge]

uh oh

elaborate

[livid rapids]

valve has gone from experimenting casually with phong and specular to having this ultrarealistic "I'm not gonna make this texture interesting" approach

specially with cs2 being a competitive game

hla has some interesting things

[drifting hinge]

half life alyx mentioned

👁️

[livid rapids]

case in point hl2 2004 had a lot of specularity

then when new engine came out they removed a lot of it

mainly on models

you can say it looks bad or not but the point is they experimented a lot more

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3370328360

[drifting hinge]

why he so yellow

i asked someone here before if this mw2019 impact decal mod that uses some fucked up parallax shader could also be done into remix https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3138415891

[livid rapids]

if it's purely displacement maps sure

[drifting hinge]

i peeked at the files but i dont understand anything at all

[livid rapids]

if it's that awful ass tiling fake parallax, nah

[drifting hinge]

idk what the difference is

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2886815821&searchtext=parallax

heres where those addons started

[livid rapids]

a displacement map is a single greyscale texture that determines, from 0 to 1, the depth of a texture

[drifting hinge]

ok

[livid rapids]

but if you dont have a displacement shader available, you can fake depth by tiling many different textures on top of each other

[drifting hinge]

which looks ugly?

[livid rapids]

some times yeah

I remember the original parallax bullet impact looking like ass

that addon is gone I think

[drifting hinge]

there was a bullet decal on the workshop before the mw2019 one

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2887678011

these?

they look goofy asf

[livid rapids]

yeah

[drifting hinge]

yeah i did not like these

[livid rapids]

Oh it's the pbr shader

[drifting hinge]

is that bad or good or horrible

[livid rapids]

Well it's closer to a displacement map without it being a texture itself

[drifting hinge]

so you cant copy it to remix

[livid rapids]

Instead of telling the shader via a texture, you're telling it the depth via raw numbers

[drifting hinge]

oh damn

[livid rapids]

You'd need to create a displacement map for it, so no

[drifting hinge]

rip

i really wanted to see that in remix

[drifting hinge]

[livid rapids]

quick showcase

[quiet scroll]

if you don't like horror stuff lol, I love little story maps like this, did a little remixing

[drifting hinge]

skurty im sorry but i think i got a new favorite

[earnest yew]

yummy

[modest whale]

I swear you're the exact representation of a tiktok braindead gen z kid that learned life on a kai cenat stream

[livid rapids]

shit is so peak

[modest whale]

You doing the addon specifically for remix or gmod in general ?

[livid rapids]

nah just remix

addon is pulled from the workshop

[modest whale]

Oh you just doing putting pbr tex with remix on an addon

Okok

Looks cool

[livid rapids]

yea

[modest whale]

Idk what it looks like without it cuz mw19 weapons looked insane in normal gmod already is it really necessary ?

Or my memory is lying to me maybe

Also doing hand model only or world model too ?

[livid rapids]

Yeah, mwb weapons have a custom fake pbr pipeline through phong, rimlight and specular

[modest whale]

Ohhh

Okok

[livid rapids]

you can use it on anything you want to port that has pbr textures

[livid rapids]

for what I'm doing only hands

[modest whale]

Okok

[drifting hinge]

Lol

[drifting hinge]

I'm loving it

thats hot

First of many

I forgot the sight rail and laser mount, I'll add them later

[quiet scroll]

Nice! Do you have to do any manual .vmt removal? I remember some addons have a gray/black texture over some weapons or if this one just works right out've the box 🙂

[lament quartz]

I have that mod it is gray for me

I mean like the adding nothing the thing posted

[livid rapids]

edited vmt's are included, just drop in everything and gmod will automatically prioritize the edited ones

if you really want to make sure, extract the addon, place it in the addons folder and then replace the vmts

[quiet scroll]

Oh sweet thanks! Is removing .vmts hard? I remember trying a few months ago and failing, maybe I was doing it wrong 😅

Right after I'm done with this upscale batch I'll try out the mod

[lament quartz]

I cast oc overheat

Pc*

[livid rapids]

It's not removing the entire vmts, just removing the "color2" and "blendtintbybasealpha" lines found on each vmt

and given that it's just 2 lines on every vmt, it's very easy

any texture ported via mwb-mats or pbr-2-source will use these parameters

[drifting hinge]

very nice mod

Gmod recently had an update where they axed the hl2.exe with the gmod install, a lot of the old mods used hl2 hashes

https://github.com/skurtyyskirts/GmodRTX do a clean install of your gmodrtx and clear out the folder/files if anything leftover after uninstalling - use this to install gmodrtx

You might want to check if your vanilla gmod has the hl2.exe in it before installing, gmod recently nuked the hl2.exe and the issue with this is the hashes changed because the .exe changed, most mods were built on hl2.exe and now that gmod only uses gmod.exe, the rugs been pulled from under us

That installer is updated to the gmod.exe hashes

[keen rivet]

Just rename the exe lol

DUDE THATS SO ANNOYING I EANTED COMPATIBILITY WITHOTHER RTX REMIX SOURCE GAME MODS

It fucking sucks, it's been a nightmare the past month switching stuff over

this whole time garry was using the hl2.exe, like 16 years and he just now gets a gmod.exe

i had to filter through the detail textures i found around the map

thats why the textures looked like dogwater

hate the decal textures, if you save after selecting they'll stay hidden on next loadup

now the final thing is the props

ah well i could just install a mod and just change up everything

nothing so far, i did a lot of work for almost 2 weeks so im taking a break lol

you can see when we push new stuff by keeping an eye on the repo

Idk about the RTX skin

Some bits look good

Others really don’t

i think the SSS is a little overdone lol

[near tartan]

Yeah

[drifting hinge]

Mark I think said they cranked it up to the max or very high to make it noticeable

[near tartan]

I will give them the benefit of the doubt and say it’s bad lighting

[compact blaze]

I’m glad rtx remix is still getting some support instead of being abandoned like 2 years later

[livid rapids]

Good

Push that shit to the max

[drifting hinge]

Maybe if it will make them look more like the headcrabs in HL:A

like the dead headcrab inside the fridge in Russell's lab

[onyx ridge]

i know it's good to try and focus on general compatibility but i wish they'd work on better source specific support

there's two official projects based on source games

@keen rivet just noticed the reason why lights work correctly is because of the disable viewfrustrum lua addon lol

i disabled it for some testing and noticed lights completely broke (they dissapear when you get close to them), it doesnt seem like light updater works for x64

it even fixes the advanced light entities

finally, i was so sad when they broke a long while ago on x32

[keen rivet]

erm set rtx_lightupdater to 0

do they still work

[subtle bison]

finding out now

[keen rivet]

they stopped when i tried

[subtle bison]

ok yeah it breaks

weird that we need both for stable lighting

[keen rivet]

should work without

dunno why

[subtle bison]

it does not

[keen rivet]

oh

the model that is being drawn goes out of view thats why
