Yes you're seeing that correctly, we have him

#

Chief Franklin, or scientist2.jpg face, they lightened the eyes but its the same face.

#

Most of these are just head photo references instead of headscans, but we now have their offical sources and links for the headscans and reference photos

#

was not able to afford all of them, but there's a couple I could snatch at this time

blissful pilot
blissful pilot
#

a lot of these I actually found using a couple AI searches, apperently these aren't really indexed on 3d.sk themselves, although they can be found on there, so you could search through the entire site and its assets (as I have) and never see them, I actually had to search other versions of the sites such as beta.3d.sk or jp.3d.sk and then just copy the URL to the regular site
some of them you've already found, but now we actually have links to both their headscans, and head photo references
and some in full resolution because I bought some 🙂
still no luck on Benjamin walker or the SS officer
they are the ONLY human characters left to find in the game

#

I'm also working on a project file in blender of the base model for the class D that has two UV layouts, one for these headscans, and the other for the model's UV, that way we can easily transfer one to the other, should help for modding in the far future for anyone that wants to add new headscans from 3d.sk to the game

#

but it will also help with easily remastering these textures with ease

#

I'm also working on remastering the clothes for these characters as well, all done in a PSD format, here's what I got so far, still a W.i.p.

#

I decided finishing the models for the classd.b3d is one of the more strategic things to tackle, its one of the lower quality assets in the game and one that really shows its age, its also an asset that is reused in lots of places in the game, such as the nuke site, 035, 970, 008, and of course the intro.

formal sierra
#

i mean im pretty sure the SS model was from gameguru

#

so i doubt it would be on 3d.sk

#

there better be facescans for every president since like

#

2000 lol

#

if there is im gonna make a President's Edition

blissful pilot
#

the Class D model was actually a prision inmate model in the FPS Creator model pack for gameguru, and the face scan they got for those come from 3d.sk a site that sells face scans, and has been since ~2004

#

this doesn't mean the SS officer face is on 3d.sk, but theres a possibility that they grabbed a face from there, its where they got all other faces from

blissful pilot
#

I have big news

#

like no one has found this out yet news

#

I'm going to show it once its done in a PSD file

#

but I have found D-9341's face

#

Benjamin Oliver Walker

#

the player ingame

oak dirge
#

oh yeah

formal sierra
#

WOOP

#

also did they just stick that face onto some other guy lol

blissful pilot
#

but also, if you think thats crazy

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

oh no

blissful pilot
#

Still needs lots of work, so keep this on this chat for the time being, I'm woking on a video about it

#

but check it out

#

Im actually so excited to show people, but unfortunately I gotta go work my day job

#

I'm going to finish the video for it tonight

#

it'll break down how its made, how the developers made D-9341 and what the original image source is

formal sierra
#

WOAH

blissful pilot
#

Yeah I'm actually super Stoked to make this video, can't wait to get off work to do it

formal sierra
#

looks good

formal sierra
#

hows the video going?

blissful pilot
#

still working on it, school and work got in the way but im on the right path now

#

I also wanted to touch up the previously made assets, just making them slightly better

formal sierra
#

Yooo

#

lmk when the video is done bro

blissful pilot
#

yeah I'll send it everywhere I can

#

it'll be pretty neat once its done

formal sierra
#

also is it just me or is his forehead big as hell lol

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

idk if it's cause if I'm on phone but it looks like a 5 finger forehead if I've ever seen one

blissful pilot
#

so yes, hes skinnier there than he normally is on the badge

blissful pilot
#

Here's the face in texture form too

#

It's really on point I think

formal sierra
#

wait damn that really is a huge difference

#

they compressed the poor guys face so much 😭

blissful pilot
#

I mean, they did a lot of shortcuts in developing the game

#

like 035's mask is literally just brush strokes overtop of the original image

#

and its mirrored

formal sierra
#

no way lol

#

you could prolly make a documentary on all of this someday lmao

blissful pilot
#

I will

#

its my end plan

#

plus a giant archive

#

but it all starts with making videos

#

and I think this video is a great place to start

formal sierra
#

absolutely bro

#

cnat wait to see the end product

#

for some reason I've been fixated on CB since like 2019 lol

blissful pilot
#

Actually

#

Do you think the colors of this one looks much better?

#

instead of this which is more pink skinned

#

Yeah I truly think that's an improvement

blissful pilot
#

Probably the last edit I'll do for the badge version, the lips line up better here

formal sierra
blissful pilot
#

It's been taking a while but I AM working on it

#

I've decided to just remaster all things that use this face at this point, I was already 90% done the class D shirt texture, and I just finished making the emily ross badge without the text, and redid the QR code found on the nostalgic badge

#

Now I'm trying to identify the font, and then I'll have a perfect reconstruction in a PSD file, people can then use that to make their own custom badges if they want to

#

but then I'll be able to use that to reverse engineer the burnt textures onto the nostalgic badge, and that'll be the cherry ontop for the video

#

the video will be really quick to put together at that point

#

And yes, the QR code scan

blissful pilot
blissful pilot
#

Gosh that took longer than anticipated

#

but here we are

blissful pilot
#

Alright. that took a long ass time

#

I may hold off on the OG badge because that took fucking forever

#

its not perfect, I actually gave up on perfect replication on the remaster of the burnt version because it got way too tedious, but I wanted to create something that looks high quality and faithful

#

with that in mind, here's the comparison

#

Original

#

Remastered

stark lotus
#

oh hell yeah, that looks so good! awesome work man

blissful pilot
#

took all day, but I'm glad it's done

#

I want to remaster the OG badge too, but at a later date because this took gosh forever

blissful pilot
#

Fixed the edges, they were bleeding a little bit

#

The PSD file is super unorganized by the way

#

another thing I'll fix later

blissful pilot
#

The old badge is surprisingly plain compared to the v1.3.10 version

#

But heres the recreation for that

blissful pilot
#

all done, as best as I could

#

Original v1.3.0 badge

#

Remastered v1.3.0 badge

#

I also have a version with that nostalgic blur effect on the text and what not

#

and tidied up the cleanversion of this badge

#

Also guess what came in the mail

formal sierra
#

HOLY SOUTH

#

man I hate autocorrect

#

also a lot to comment on but this all of this looks amazing

stark lotus
# blissful pilot

i think this is the first time my mouth fell agape while looking at the stuff in this channel lmao. That's so badass and so is everything else you've been doing too

blissful pilot
#

I appreciate that, and yeah D-9341 has probably been the biggest pain in the ass so far besides maybe the 8K ending screen, I find it very rewarding once the assets are done though, and I plan to go as far with it as I can; for the remaster obviously some of it like the v1.3.0 badge isn’t in the game anymore, but when we have the assets used and a PSD file for the current one, I felt it was worth remastering, Hell. Even Bateseee’s video uses that version of the badge, it’s a part of history for the game’s lore

blissful pilot
#

So I was trying to see if SCP:CB can run in 4K, I did up a short video test that switches between the exact same frame in 1920x1080, 2560x1440, and 3840x2160, and there's definitely a clear difference, I'm not sure If its true 4K, or if maybe all resolutions are displayed at a lower resolution and than scaled up, but it is differently more crisp and a clear difference between the 3840x2160 setting and the 2560x1440 setting.

#

I've made two versions of this video, one for 4K monitors, (the first one.) and one designed for 1080p monitors, (the second one.) because I know probably not everyone here will have a 4K monitor.

#

I've tested this with RTX remix too, and it does work in 3840x2160, it might even look better if you put the DLSS and what not at their highest settings, I just don't have a PC that powerful for that, once I visit my friend with his 4090 I might put his PC to the test for that specifically.

blissful pilot
#

Christ I have a lot to share with y'all

#

might take a bit though

#

in short, I might've fixed the culling issue with lights, I was able to set a setting for 079's screens so they emit light on his keyboard, it looks really cool. and I fixed 035's animation so it seamlessly transitions with his idle animation.

#

I've recorded most of it, its been a pain in the ass troubleshooting RTX remix, Blitz3D, Bandicam recording at a lower framerate as shown, and other things

#

but I'll try to show all I can when I can

blissful pilot
#

Alright, this short showcase video shows everything I mentioned, 035's seamless animation, light culling, RTX in 4K. and 60fps, everything except 079's screen which I'll show later on, this is also the best recording/video showcase we have of the mod up until this point, its the first one in native 4K with 60fps.

blissful pilot
#

Radio came in the mail today

#

This is my SCP prop collection thus far

stark lotus
#

holy crap that's awesome lmao

#

it feels so surreal seeing the real versions of them after playing seeing them in scp for so long

blissful pilot
#

I should have the gray Recon data collector (S-Nav) coming in tomorrow

#

and yeah its pretty neat to have em

stark lotus
#

also i didn't know u had an SCP 963 and 005

blissful pilot
#

Yeah those I've had about as long as the 049 mask, ~2017

#

005 is probably the easiest to get besides 1499,

#

005 is just a P6 Corbin skeleton key

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

make the guard blood in 079's room 8K and my life is yours

#

actually no thats still too low res

#

maybe a bit higher i need to see all the detail

blissful pilot
#

As far as I know

formal sierra
#

make it 16K

#

trust

oak dirge
#

more like make the blood 3d instead

blissful pilot
#

I have a lot more SCP:CB sources by the way

#

Most of them sound related like the Femur breaker screams

#

I just haven’t been at my computer, it’s been a rough few days

#

As soon as I get the chance though, I’m gonna share that here

blissful pilot
#

Here's a raw scan of the dust cover of The Encyclopedia of Common Diseases book if anyone wants it, I'm going to fix it up and photoshop it into a "Colton Press" SCP version tomorrow and eventually make a custom dust cover, but here's just a raw scan of it without any alterations.

stark lotus
#

did you use a flatbed scanner or something like that to scan it?

#

also i love audio and would love to hear the femur breaker screams, do they have reverb like the game or is it like the original recording?

blissful pilot
blissful pilot
#

its how I'm going to be able to print a custom dust cover too

stark lotus
#

oh sick

blissful pilot
#

everything except the heavy breathing

stark lotus
#

of course its on freesound lmao

#

that's awesome

stark lotus
#

nice

blissful pilot
#

I also have his original screams, had them for years

#

like, 096's screams

stark lotus
#

the only source i know from memory is 096's scream being from some existing sound library from sounddogs or one of those companies

blissful pilot
#

I believe they're also on freesound too

#

I'm clearing up my Google Drive right now by the way, once I'm done that, I should have ~100gb of cloud storage for building the archive, and I'm going to do that

#

that way any of us, or anyone period can have access to all we found

#

it will also make organizing and sharing a lot easier

stark lotus
#

sounds awesome!

#

my memory was actually right for once

blissful pilot
#

Lot of work ahead of me to do that, but for the archive; I think its worth it

#

huh, have a link?

stark lotus
blissful pilot
#

I could swear it was on both but

stark lotus
#

i know a source where i can probably find the library

#

actually there's a sample of it on that wiki page

blissful pilot
#

Also

#

if you're interested in pre-release sound effects

#

did the voice for a lot, and has clips of them without editing

#

most of the announcer stuff, PA, MTF, Cheif Franklin, you name it

#

This one has quite a bit

stark lotus
#

oh awesome

#

found this since the library is really hard to find and sounddogs don't sell it anymore

blissful pilot
#

Yeah I think I have it on my computer somewhere,

#

also; I don't think thats the original

stark lotus
#

yeah the description says its edited, but it's the best ive found so far

blissful pilot
#

because the one I had A. more sounds, and B. parts of that is reversed to make it sound like that

#

still, probably one of the clearier ones ive heard

stark lotus
#

here's one but super LQ
https://youtu.be/231H6VqATDw

This sound effect can be found on Interplay Sound Effects Library, which was made by SoundDogs.

#

Yea not great, I'll take a look I have it somewhere I swear, wish I kept the link though

#

keep in mind, i found this in like 2017

#

one of the first sources I found

stark lotus
#

there's another one on youtube that might be higher quality but I didn't bother listening to it, let me find the link

blissful pilot
#

still, Femur breaker sounds

#

that and pic3.jpg has been on peoples mind for a while

#

and now both have been found, and we know exactly where they come from

#

I'm not joking, pic4.jpg is the only real like mystery image left to find

#

WOW

#

dude

#

I found em

#

only with a couple of minutes of searching

#

AND

#

these predate the sounddogs ones

#

2009, 3 years prior to CB, and 7 years before the sounddogs archive link

stark lotus
#

i wonder what the story actually is, because sounddogs seemed to definitely have been distributing them at some point, wonder if they had some sort of deal and it fell out or something

blissful pilot
#

Also found this one on freesound

#

682's roar

blissful pilot
#

with all we've found, I think "who owns what" is out of the question, Its likely somewhat CC0 and yet companies choose to steal and sell it

#

the headscans of the class D's came from 3d.sk and were sold there, but then The game creators and game guru took and use those for their models, only to sell them once more

#

its a cycle of selling

stark lotus
#

could be

#

im trying to remember where i heard the scream recently

blissful pilot
#

in searching for it back in 2017, Its everywhere

#

I know its also in the show Invincible

#

and many other places

stark lotus
#

oh it's in invincible? if its in season 1 then that's where i likely heard it recently

blissful pilot
#

probably

#

I unfortunately havent seen the show yet

#

heard a lot of good things about it though

stark lotus
#

yeah i finished season 1 and like it

blissful pilot
#

I never showed you guys, but heres D9341's original source image for his face

stark lotus
#

unfortunatley my dumb brain never manges to make time for tv shows so i haven't seen the rest yet

stark lotus
blissful pilot
#

its a long story.. lol

#

hense why I felt it would be easier to make a video about it

#

This face and the 079 face are probably the craziest finds so far

#

and its crazy to think I'm the only one who found those lmao

#

I'm hoping I find the 106 image, but honestly... would take a lot to

#

we found the oldest archive of it though

#

its an archived 4chan thread from 2009

#

predating the 2010 wiki

stark lotus
#

i was going to try and search an archive of 4chan's /b/ board but windows keeps complaining about filesize or something

blissful pilot
#

search by image hashes too

stark lotus
#

i already searched an archive of /x/ and found nada but idk if im even doing it right

blissful pilot
#

check this out

stark lotus
blissful pilot
#

except one thing

#

this is the only time Dr. Gears has spoken about where he got it from

#

whats even crazier is we found the same guy's accounts on other social media

#

granted, all of them are inactive

#

like, the guy who sent it in the 2009 archived 4chan thread

#

Also

#

if you want to follow a lead on it

#

Dr. Gears on that post, said that someone identified it at some point with a link to the original artist, after the wiki being created, but he lost that too

#

so that means, assuming that's still up; somewhere, there might be a post of someone identifying the photo and where its from

#

may be easier than searching he void that is the 2006-2008 internet

formal sierra
oak dirge
#

SCP 096's scream is free.
Apex legends used it for a title cutscene one season

stark lotus
blissful pilot
#

I’m trying to find a look alike to the regular gas mask

#

If I can find a model that looks very similar, I’ll purchase it and do the same thing I’ve been doing with photo scanning

#

Except I don’t even know if it’s based off a real gas mask

#

So far a Swiss GM53 is the closest I can find… kinda

stark lotus
#

Looks pretty similar. I always assumed the gasmask in the game wasn't based on a real mask so a look alike might be the best you can get here

blissful pilot
#

Managed to get Portal RTX running on my steam deck 🎉

#

Hopefully, with enough tinkering, I can get this mod working

#

I’ve been able to get all kinds of windows DLLs and DirectX stuff working through proton, I think the problem is that it doesn’t register the Dxwrapper, so I’m gonna do some more playing around with that tomorrow

#

It would be kickass if this can at least start on the steam deck

oak dirge
#

any progress on rooms

blissful pilot
#

I haven't done much since fixing the light culling problem, but I plan to work a lot more on the rooms now that I have a lot of time on my hands (school just ended for the semester)

oak dirge
#

checking to see if I'm still stuck in limbo or not

blissful pilot
#

wdym?

oak dirge
#

not being able to use toolkit

blissful pilot
#

I still want to fully figure out the toolkit and the weird parts about it incase I have to help others using it, it would also help make more progress quicker

#

it does a lot of weird things

oak dirge
#

I just wanna get the game lit so I can play it lol

blissful pilot
#

Yea, plus we can get more people excited about it too at that point

#

I have several weeks of free time, so I'll likely get all the rooms lit in the near future, at least fo vanilla

#

hell, maybe I should do the same for UE and UER that way you guys can work on asset replacements in those if you'd like

#

open up the project a little more

oak dirge
#

did we ever see if the mod files transfer between the versions

blissful pilot
#

I think we tried with the intro area once If I remember correctly

#

but just to see

#

I'm gonna try it again now with UER

oak dirge
#

I think the captures worked but that was pre-modification

#

the question was if we added stuff manually does it transfer

blissful pilot
#

I'm gonna try it with the current version of the mod

oak dirge
#

just noticed the pin is from almost a year ago

#

can you drop current files

blissful pilot
#

Should still be in the google drive, although I haven't updated the rtx.conf file with the light culling fix, and 035's room isn't included just because its still very much a W.I.P

#

otherwise the google drive should still be up to date

#

It changes 079's screen and fixes the light culling to a certain degree

#

079's screen now lights up the keyboard

oak dirge
#

toolkit working again

#

I wonder if I could macro all the room captues

#

although idk if I have that much motivation there aren't that many rooms lol

#

I also don't wanna mess up the flow since you have way more time than me + already started rooms

blissful pilot
#

Yeah I'm blessed to finally have time off to work on this, its amazing

oak dirge
#

might start speedrunning the game after it's playable lol

blissful pilot
#

I'm gonna try UER in a bit, I spent some time cooking this up, because I realized that I haven't actually made a video form of an update for you guys regarding the rtx.conf changes that fixes the light culling and 079's screen, so I did that now

oak dirge
#

I just realized the self-viewmodel in uer doesn't work with remix huh

blissful pilot
#

Might be able to, theres also a setting in the developer menu for RTX remix for viewmodels simular to the anti-culling settings, I just didn't have a reason to try them out because vanilla v1.3.11 doesn't have viewmodels or playermodels

oak dirge
#

also anti-culling didn't work for me when I tried it I wonder what changed

#

are you running latest remix build

#

I did an emissive for the screen in spawn room before
changed it a screencap of toolkit with the game loaded

blissful pilot
blissful pilot
#

Yea no clue how that one is pronounced, I suppose It would be like Frus-tum looking back, no idea

pure marsh
#

frust rem

blissful pilot
#

neat

blissful pilot
#

Yeah UER doesn't work with the Vanilla mod

#

the rooms were too heavily changed I think the hashes are just entirely different

#

079's room has an elevator, even small things like the corner junction in heavy containment has an extra room added to it

#

so those would need to manually be relit as well.

#

Here's an edited recording I did of UER with the RTX mod files from Vanilla, it really doesn't work with backwards compatibility to Van v1.3.11

#

I also wanted to mention, @oak dirge after doing it again just now, I do remember trying this in the past, both the mod files and just a fresh install of RTX remix, I had some issues with normal textures and Jevadiah gave me his, I had a video on it here if you want to see.

#

I'm tempted, and I'm going to try UE, because I remember UE being a lot closer to Vanilla than UER, and I want to see if the results are different there

#

I wanted to mention as well, UER is actually vastly different functionally than Vanilla CB, I actually learned this while implimenting 035, I had one of the devs from UERM help me because the animations were just not working with 035, and it was then when he compared the source code that he found the two different versions of the game work in wildly different ways, they may be in the same engine, but even little things like how 035's height is calcuated were completely redone in a different way to optomize the game

#

UER may be more optimized than Vanilla, but it does so by changing a lot

#

I have no problem working on a mod for both though, It's like the difference between Beef and Chicken, I like both. but I don't consider one a replacement for the other, they both have their own charm, pros and cons, and I'd love to see both be remastered.

oak dirge
#

What’s with your game looking super wacky btw

#

It really sucks they don’t transfer over though.

#

At the asset work done for vanilla will since that’s more work than lighting

blissful pilot
#

The assets will be easy to transfer over, once they are made thats no problem; but yeah lighting will need to be redone

#

which isn't too much of a problem, just a bigger time investment, but as I said: i got a lot of time on my hands

#

plus, 90% of sources have been found

#

so we're at the most exciting part

#

Also UER uses Dgvoodoo while we've been using dxwrapper,

#

it seemed to work regardless, but when we develop that mod's RTX mod, we might need to clean that up

#

because using both is probably not a great idea, or is unnecessary

stark lotus
#

havent checked the date yet tho

#

jan 2010, predates 106 by around 3 months

blissful pilot
#

wait really..

#

link?

#

also I tested UE

#

I have a headache

#

lmao

stark lotus
#

i dont have a link because it was in one of those archives that u have to extract onto ur own machine, i'll see if i can just send the .htm and the page data in a zip here tho

blissful pilot
#

Yeah that works

stark lotus
#

a lot of cursed images in that thread, it was one of those "post ur scary pics" type of threads

#

i only found it because i decided to re-search the pages with image dimensions properly included (i did it wrong the first time)

blissful pilot
#

Thnak god

#

video is done

#

im so done with these bump maps

#

alright, now I can take a look at that

#

which is way more exciting

stark lotus
#

true, like when i tried reverse image searching for pic4.jpg.. ew

blissful pilot
#

I have tried looking, there isn't a single thing that can keep me up at night or affect me in that way, the closest I've found is Harlequin-type ichthyosis or the Byford Dolphin incident, and even those affected me for a day or two and then never again

#

I'm weirded out by my ability to simply not feel anything when it comes to stuff that should make me want to look away

stark lotus
#

yeah im kinda a wuss when it comes to horror

#

but i think that's what sort of attracts me to it

blissful pilot
#

I've been playing horror games since I was a kid, and I think that desensitized me for life.

stark lotus
#

i used to be scared of the kool aid man when i was 7

blissful pilot
#

Ive found out recently that I'm afraid of two things

#

for the longest time I thought nothing would scare me

#

the two are ionizing radiation, and the other is harder to explain; but the easiest way to is Delta P, its differential pressure when underwater or in pressurized environments.

stark lotus
#

yeah delta p is pretty scary

#

the ocean in general scares me if im being honest

#

not a fan of swiming at all unless its in a pool or something

blissful pilot
#

I've come to understand that humans just don't understand how dangerous the world really is

#

we'd like to think we've concurred it all and that nothing can cause us to make the same mistakes again, its easy to blame older generations for their folly decision making but its naive to not believe we're any different.

stark lotus
#

so true

blissful pilot
#

lemme show you something I saw the other day, it puts it really well

stark lotus
#

this writing is fire

blissful pilot
#

Indeed, modern day philisopher Id'd go so far to say

stark lotus
#

also searching my big /b/ archive that i don't remember where i got it from

blissful pilot
#

I'm gonna check out what you found in the zip im super intereste

stark lotus
#

they dont archive the full images, just the small thumbnails, but atleast we got a new filename now i guess

blissful pilot
#

where'd you find the archive with the 106?

stark lotus
#

one of the archives that the doc said was unsearched

blissful pilot
#

like I know its in a .html, but where was it downloaded from

#

ah

#

which board?

stark lotus
#

this one

#

lemme check

#

/b/

blissful pilot
#

interesting

#

Oh nvm!

stark lotus
#

if 106 was posted before 2007, it was probably on b i'd assume

blissful pilot
#

i was gonna post it under your name, but you already did

#

perfect

#

in the 106 lost media discord

stark lotus
#

/x/, the paranormal board was rebranded from the photography board in 2007

blissful pilot
stark lotus
#

so its likely either on /x/ or /b/ for the original photo

blissful pilot
#

the thing thats been bugging me is, what if it didn't originate from 4chan?

stark lotus
#

i also have an archive of /x/ but it isn't as big as /b/

blissful pilot
#

Dr gears said someone once correctly identified the artist and the photo with a link, but he lost that too, it was in his only response on the source of it

stark lotus
blissful pilot
#

So far, it is the earliest we've found

#

is there anyway these archives can have the full resolution photo?

#

I know you said the one you found didn't but if it could... that would bring us one step closer

#

the thing I really want to find is another perspective of the image

stark lotus
#

i don't think they would archive that probably because of file size

blissful pilot
#

if its a real thing that existed

stark lotus
#

one of them might, but the archive would then take up a lot of space id assume

blissful pilot
#

Adobe and Discord is killing my will to live

#

its interesting though

stark lotus
#

i might try and research the archives that have already been searched too

blissful pilot
#

you found another name

#

grinningman.jpg

#

that's useful

stark lotus
#

yeah, I actually think i remember the 106 image being called grinningman.jpg back in the day, idk why

#

it feels so familliar to me

#

also im wondering, did dr gears say when he found it on 4chan? I know he said something like he had it on his drive for a while, but "a while" is pretty broad. im just wondering if he had it all the way back in 08 or something, or if its possible that the post I found was the same one he found too, just an idea

blissful pilot
#

You could propose that to the discord, not a bad theory

#

and no, he didn't specify much

#

probably because he doesn't remember

stark lotus
#

probably

#

only argument against it being the same post is that the one he uploaded isn't called "grinningman", but its also possible that he just renamed it

blissful pilot
#

I believe that is the case actually, I remember somewhere that there was something that suggested he renamed it to "that_man.jpg"

#

it still has a source somewhere too because its likely that it was taken with a camera

#

it has metadata, but also the image matches up with expected results of encoding with the D250 Samsung digiticam

stark lotus
#

So a possible name order could be S2500227.JPG -> grinningman.jpeg -> that man.jpg

blissful pilot
#

correct

stark lotus
#

also the same person who took the photo in the first place could likely be the one who edited it in photoshop, making it way harder to find the original photo

blissful pilot
#

I think they also said that it was likely that the edit made in photoshop was to resize it to its current size

stark lotus
#

that's also true

blissful pilot
#

because it has an abnormal sizing if I remember correctly

stark lotus
#

yeah the D250 doesn't take images at that res iirc

#

goddamn i wish i had these archives on my ssd now lmao, not even a quarter of the way

blissful pilot
#

My nitro subscription refuses to resubscribe itself so i'm forced to make it below 100mb in size

#

This is Ultimate Edition with the RTX mod files I've put together for vanilla

stark lotus
#

oh hell yeah

blissful pilot
#

obviously the bitrate is garbage, but you can see what it looks like for the most part

#

what a headache, literally.

stark lotus
#

awesome easter egg at 5:13 lmao

blissful pilot
#

i'm taking a tylenol

#

I don't think its an easter egg, just matter of fact lmao

stark lotus
#

oh that was relating to what you were saying

#

my bad

blissful pilot
#

@oak dirge

stark lotus
#

i was watching with audio off and skipped to a random time and just saw it pop up for like a frame lmao

blissful pilot
#

its more for him, because we were discussing UE and UER earlier

#

it took me all day to record and try out both mods like that

blissful pilot
stark lotus
#

yeah i just had audio off cause i was listening to music lol

#

hopefully i can find another 106 4chan post

blissful pilot
#

Long story short, rooms that are unchanged such as room2ccont can transfer over for lighting, albeit itll still have the added lights from the UE mod ontop of the RTX mod, so lighting should be redone anyhow

#

but for most areas, that have been completely reworked, nothing transfers over

#

Only took like 4 hours to find out that bit of information lmao

#

Have you checked the fybertech one?

stark lotus
#

yup

blissful pilot
#

entirely?

stark lotus
#

haven't checked it for grinningman.jpeg yet

stark lotus
#

ill redo it though

blissful pilot
#

is there any archive I can check?

stark lotus
#

its not as large as the other ones

blissful pilot
#

yeah only 19g

stark lotus
#

the doc makes it sound like they only checked for hashes, but it would be worth checking for dimensions and filenames too

blissful pilot
#

2009, which isn't great isn't terrible

stark lotus
#

i think i have but im not certain and it def before i fixed the dimensions thing in my search

#

you can search it if you want

#

i just use notepad++'s find in files to search

blissful pilot
#

neat, I just want to download a bunch because I know they'll take a while to download

#

also darn

#

they already checked that one

stark lotus
#

what are those files actually containing

#

cause all the doc says is No matching hashes

#

i haven't had a single hash hit on any of my archives yet either

blissful pilot
#

I'm not sure, and I think you're right they were only looking for hashes

#

downloading the yotsuba society archive now

#

should take 2hours it says so,

stark lotus
blissful pilot
#

ah, probably one of the better things to checkout

#

im gonna lie down for a few minutes while that downloads, my head is pounding because of UE

#

btw

#

found the femur breaker

#

i'll show it in a bit, but I found every single sound used

#

I'm putting together a clear reconstruction

#

without the filters

stark lotus
#

i can send u my regex that i use to search the files in an hour or two if you want

blissful pilot
#

sure

#

im new to searching archives in general so

stark lotus
#

its just a bunch of possible things like different filenames, image width and height, all the hashes and stuff

blissful pilot
#

ah, that would be really handy then

stark lotus
#

yeah, use that in notepad++ with Find in Files it it'll go through every file in a directory and its subfolders and search it for those strings

#

i cant send it cause notepad++ is frozen due to having a search running on it

stark lotus
stark lotus
# blissful pilot ah, that would be really handy then

this is the regex i use currently S2500227|s2500227|that man\.jpg|width="1050"|74933fd1219320a47a9e668cc879bacf|638b4247449e27c66bcc8a144f744fb24d7cf1d4|bd51975b43928eb151afce818f580cf99f97e7024e84302e2e6f8faca971dee0|1050x1400|grinningman

blissful pilot
#

Neat and thank you! 👌

oak dirge
#

Me and the boys at 3 am looking for LARRY

blissful pilot
#

Yeah there's a google doc

#

it would be awesome to find, sometimes (at least for me) i put an attempt to find it in-between working on the remaster

#

That's the Google Doc if you want to check the progress made

blissful pilot
#

3D printer is working again

#

I've been busy doing a lot of maintenance/organizational work, my workspace, Google drive, I'm cleaning up space for both the archive, and to have a more clean and effective workspace going forward, it's been taking a bit to do so, but it'll make working on big projects like this one a lot easier, The 3D printer I needed to fix for a number of reasons, it'll have to be used for the extension of the radio, I have to fix some of the buttons on the S-Nav with epoxy, and a bunch of other reasons, making 3D printable files in general (not RTX related)

#

but i'll work on lighting rooms once more once I'm done clearing space; shouldn't be too much longer

blissful pilot
#

This was my first test print to make sure it’s working right

formal sierra
#

WOOOOO

blissful pilot
#

I know I've been quiet, but I have been working on stuff, I've been working on remastering the label photo for 035's chamber, I figured it would be easier to recreate it from scratch than source a higher resolution image of it, or upscale it, and this is how it looks so far. I've also been trying to finalize the high poly model for distribution to anyone who wants it, I plan to make a 3D printable version of the mask.

blissful pilot
#

Worked on it a bit more, more smoother more accurate to the photograph

#

this model is also ready to be 3D printed, gonna try it now

#

Gonna take 19 Hours to print (assuming it doesn't fail) so I'll show y'all that in 19 hours

#

I'm making two different 3D printable versions, one that's the same size as the original, slightly too small to fit on anyone's face, and one that is slightly larger, can be actually worn as a mask

#

I'm printing the larger one to start

formal sierra
#

I CAN'T WAIT 19 HOURS 😭

#

i can wait 20 hours tho

#

cause its nice and even

blissful pilot
#

it'll take me a bit to sand and break off supports

#

so 20 is more accurate

formal sierra
#

the remastered label looks fire btw

#

didn't even realize it was that blurry

blissful pilot
#

Yeah AI would be of no help here

formal sierra
#

yeah it prolly wouldn't

#

even if it did it makes everything look smudgy

#

especially when its really low res

blissful pilot
#

in the meantime of the print, I'm gonna work on 1025, if I finish that, I can get the custom dust cover printed by saturday

formal sierra
#

🎉

blissful pilot
#

This is what I got going on so far

formal sierra
#

oooo

#

btw, not sure if you'd be interested in looking at these, but i lit pretty much every room in Entrance Zone realisticly and this is probably what the finished product of the RTX remix will look like

#

just gimme a second to fetch the 36 SCREENSHOTS 😭

#

some lighting is really hard to do since for some reason Unity kind of sucks ass with shadows on these rooms

#

lighting is always finicky and for some rooms i needed to use an excessive amount of lamps/ceiling lights to light the room fully but i think the finished product looks pretty good for most of these

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

IK 😭

blissful pilot
#

where is it done in?

formal sierra
#

its beautiful i just need to create an emission map

#

Unity

blissful pilot
#

ah

#

neat

formal sierra
#

it actually runs at 60+ FPS without any culling lol which is surprising

blissful pilot
#

I mean, i"m surpised that the RTX mod runs as well as it does at times

formal sierra
#

well you also have a beast of a PC so im sure that contributes quite a bit lol

#

tryna figure out light baking rn but theres no actual solution for Unity prefabs 😔

#

i might just have to find a way to do the baking on load and then write it somewhere in the game's files

blissful pilot
#

I have awesome news

#

The SCB Vanilla RTX mod works on the steam deck now

#

With some tinkering involved

#

But I finally managed to get it running with ray tracing

#

Of course, and to be expected; it runs very sluggish. But my plan is to chisel away at it and try to find the best settings to make it run OK. My goal is that, if I can get it running decently on a steam deck, a device not meant to be powerful enough for Ray-tracing, then it should fare better on computers with lower end RTX cards, like 20 series

#

But also, it’s a novelty thing. I’m so pleased to have gotten it working

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

HOLY SHIT

#

the paint is gonna look great

#

btw i've never 3d printed anything (i don't have one 😭) and i always wanted to know how the texture is

#

is it like rubber feeling

blissful pilot
#

nah, it depends on the print settings, and the printer, plastic type, I'm just using PLA which is what most would use for 3D printing, because it prints in layers if you have a really fast print it can result in layer lines which can be noticable

#

this is actually why I decided to print the mask upright rather than face down, and I made the printer take longer per layer, making a smoother result

#

you can barely notice the layer lines on the mask using that method, infact, its only noticable on the chin and top, which are easier to sand

#

if I printed the mask lying down, thost lines would be noticable on the forehead and nose, which are harder to sand

#

it turned the 9 hour print into a 19 hour print, but I think it was worth it

#

while it doesn't feel like porcelain anymore, it still feels sturdy and good

blissful pilot
#

I could only afford one because I got extreamly lucky while playing beer pong at one point

formal sierra
#

lmao

blissful pilot
#

mine costed $1300, and it was on sale at the time

formal sierra
#

holy moly

#

i hope one day to be able to afford things like that lol

#

that print looks so smooth tho

#

whats with the back side?

#

is that just like residue or something

blissful pilot
#

wdym? on the mask?

formal sierra
#

yeah

blissful pilot
#

they're just supports, to hold the mask inplace so it doesn't fall

#

I'm currently breaking those off as we talk actually

formal sierra
#

oh lol

#

fnaf plushie goes crazy in the back

blissful pilot
#

Yeah I've had it for many years

#

I like horror of all types, as long as its interesting

formal sierra
#

fr

blissful pilot
#

This is what I mean by layer lines by the way

#

Of course, these are much easier to sand on the top and bottom than it would be on the inside and the forehead if I printed it lying down

formal sierra
#

woa

#

it looks honestly kind of cool lol

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#
#

free shipping

#

just put it all over the mask and you should have it glossy in no time

#

jk

#

ngl i thought the supports were like vines or something lol

blissful pilot
#

Yeah it’s tree supports, much easier to break off

#

The look like roots almost

blissful pilot
#

Almost done

blissful pilot
oak dirge
#

sick

blissful pilot
#

Assuming everything goes right by the way

#

S-nav, Radio, and SCP-1025 should all be added into the remaster in the next couple of days

#

I've been collectively working on those while waiting for the 035 mask to dry

#

radio is like 90% done, just need to print the extension, paint that; and then photoscan it

#

S-nav I want to remake the buttons using epoxy, the ones currently on it are yellowing from age

#

and SCP-1025 I'm just finishing up the dust cover PSD and I'm going to get that printed once I get to my day job at 5pm

#

Of course, I'll share incremental progress as I do

formal sierra
#

Holy moly

formal sierra
oak dirge
blissful pilot
#

Don’t you worry, I’m gonna get to that real soon

formal sierra
#

ohhhh lmao no I have an AMD card anyway lol

#

those were in unity

blissful pilot
#

Which rooms would you guys prefer I light next?

#

I was thinking the generic map pieces, like the intersections, hallways, corner junctions

#

I might not be able to do all of them right away, like all zones, but focusing on those first will open up the mod to being more playable

oak dirge
#

I think the generics would be good first since they are duplicated alot

blissful pilot
#

That too

#

They would be easier and quicker to get done one by one

oak dirge
#

starting with light and working further in

blissful pilot
#

The hardest part (because there’s so many of them) is capturing and naming the captures

#

If there was a way to name them in game it would be easy, but that’s still broken for some reason no idea why

oak dirge
#

I was just typing into a separate box then copying and pasting

blissful pilot
#

Yeah the only issue is that they are usually named like capture_2025_05_02-27 or whatever it’s normally default named, and when you capture a different room it still will have the same name

#

One solution I’ve found is deleting characters from the default capture name and writing down which means what room on a note

#

If any of that makes sense

oak dirge
#

you can't type in the box but you can highlight and paste

#

so I would tab out, put the name in google, copy it, then paste it in remix and do the capture

blissful pilot
#

Really? I gotta try this out

#

That would change everything

#

And yeah in that case that would be the best method to do so

#

I already have all the room types in a spreadsheet

#

So lighting rooms would be insanely easier if that’s the case

blissful pilot
#

Logo I made for Coltan Press for SCP-1025

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

HOLY MOLYS

#

that looks great

blissful pilot
#

You should see it on the book

#

I still gotta fold it though

#

Just procrastinating because I’m hungry lol

formal sierra
#

eat 😎

blissful pilot
#

It's finally complete

formal sierra
#

woah

#

i thought i liked the glossy look but ngl the other version is kinda better imo

#

also that felt like a mini documentary lol

#

now just add the diseases thinksmart

blissful pilot
blissful pilot
#

I like the look of the original too, I just couldn’t replicate it any more without sacrificing quality of paper, the OG dust cover is incredibly cheap paper

#

And if you’re talking about the matte, it is nice; but the glossy is A. More accurate to the wiki and in game book, and B. Brings out the colors a little bit better

formal sierra
#

ye idk I really like both of them tbh

#

very nice work; they both look so absolutely beautiful that id gladly open the book to a random page

blissful pilot
#

I forgot to post this but

blissful pilot
#

I'm gonna hit the hay for tonight, but I wanted to share what I've been doing

#

I have offically cleared up enough space on my google drive for an SCP Archive of what we found/find, I have started working on said Archive, its split into two sections, SCP:CB, and SCP Wikidot basically finds that are specific to both, although duplicate files can be found in both and among different places in the archive to make finding files easier.

#

Here is the link if you want to check it out

#

There's also a ton of stuff I'm putting that even you guys have not seen, I've put the .stl file for the 035 mask print I did, I have 3D models for 173, including the room that I created to look like the "untitled 2004" location, I have original videos I took in 2017 when I first got the 049 mask, as well as a 3D model of the raw scan of the 049 mask for download

#

And I'm going to put a lot more

#

its been a lot of work, and its gonna be a lot more work putting what we found, but when that's done. any future findings will be easy to document and archive going forward.

blissful pilot
#

I forgot to mention this last night, but I want to also make videos both breaking down updates made on the RTX mod, and videos talking about the sources of some of these textures, one of the biggest reasons why is A. to get the archive in more peoples hands, and more importantly B. have a written documentation of links to the sources, right now we only have them on this discord and I have them on another private DM discord.

#

that will come much later on though.

#

this week my priorities are lighting rooms in Light containment zone, and the archive

#

and also D-9341, but that goes hand in hand with the archive

oak dirge
#

Let there be light

blissful pilot
#

I think it’ll look really awesome once light containment is fully lit

#

It’ll feel like an actual game

oak dirge
#

Assets are cool but not if you can't see them in game

blissful pilot
#

True that

formal sierra
#

i opened the 895pics thing without reading the warning and got jumpscared lol

blissful pilot
#

Yeah warning, pic3's sources are there

formal sierra
#

i didn't even know it was a real skinned dog

blissful pilot
#

Yeah theres a huge story about it

#

Sadest part I think is that they never got convicted for it

formal sierra
#

🫠

#

well that fucking sucks

blissful pilot
#

Yep

#

Its part of the reason I keep the photos too, If it were up to me, I don't want the story fading to obscurity, I think the dog deserves at least that much to not be forgotten.

#

of course, people have differing opinions on the matter

#

some just replace pic3 and forget they ever saw it

formal sierra
#

exactly

#

that one of her holding the heart is really gut wrenching

#

people man 😭

blissful pilot
#

its crazy to think that the dog has been dead for almost 20 years too

#

thats how long ago it was

formal sierra
#

20 years??

#

christ

#

just a question; will you be including these in the RTX remix?

blissful pilot
#

Good question

#

I don’t really have a solid answer to it, I’ve already remastered the texture with the original, and it was already in the game since like 2012 so people who know have already seen it, I’m of the opinion that real gore should never be endorsed; (for the same reason you can’t own eagle feathers) but I share the opinion the real gore can have more of an effect in the horror aspect in a horror game.

#

So I’m more leaning towards, yes? Maybe? But that can definitely change in the future; I’ve spoken with tons of people who worked on the original game and their opinions on it, Vain Brain who made the NTF mod and other mods replaced it entirely, Regalis shared the same opinion as me and always kept it in the game no matter what, many others have different takes on it; as said before; people have many differing opinions on the matter

#

I think what I said earlier also shapes my opinion

#

I don’t really want this dog to fade into obscurity and be forgotten, good or bad the story may be; the images inclusion in SCP CB is how many people learned about the tragedy, and maybe many more can learn about it with it’s inclusion into the remaster; good or bad, it’s apart of SCPCB’s development and history.

#

It’s a very similar conversation as the burnt corpse face in Half life 2

oak dirge
#

someone's eyes when they see the 8k skinned dog appear on their screen for 0.1 seconds

blissful pilot
#

Which, by the way; they replaced in the RTX remaster 🤷‍♀️

blissful pilot
#

I couldn’t get it higher than 2K nor do I think it’s necessary to

oak dirge
#

ladies and gentlemen he tried

blissful pilot
#

There’s a story I read about, I think it’s called The Fun House Corpse?

#

That story also kinda shaped my opinion

oak dirge
#

I forget did you remodel 066 or just retexture

blissful pilot
#

Remodel

#

Although i need to clean it up

oak dirge
#

ropey boi

blissful pilot
#

I have a picture somewhere of it

oak dirge
#

yarn ball

blissful pilot
#

Eric?

oak dirge
#

gets ears destroyed

blissful pilot
#

It’s kinda funny because at the time that I got my 049 mask, I had two friends at the time, Eric and Jorge

#

Jorge I’m still friends with and he’s helping me document our findings

#

Jorge has been expecting you

oak dirge
#

scp-066 but he blasts "4090 PERFORMANCE FOR ONLY $599!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

blissful pilot
#

294 except he makes 5090 fan noises instead of vending machine noises

#

Except for running Crysis; then it displays the text ”OUT OF RANGE”

oak dirge
#

we need a spritesheet of 294 running doom

blissful pilot
#

Omg now I want to change AIface2 to just be the Unable to create 3D scene

#

also, I took a break to create a proper space for all my SCP stuff

#

I’m running out of places to put it all so

oak dirge
#

now put that in game

blissful pilot
#

Actually it’s funny, because one of it already is

oak dirge
#

put in maynard's office or something with the other easter eggs

blissful pilot
#

We gotta put a graphics card somewhere tho

#

We gotta, I loved seeing it in the portal RTX

#

No idea where though

oak dirge
#

hide it in the server farm

blissful pilot
#

I thought of that

#

Not a bad spot

oak dirge
#

if we 3d modelled the racks it could be in the rack lol

blissful pilot
#

Or put it in the room where they have the S-COM screen talking about the upgrade they did to 079

oak dirge
#

lmao

blissful pilot
#

Analyzing new hardware

oak dirge
#

replace the dude's aio monitor from intro with a gaming PC

blissful pilot
#

That was the other idea I had besides the server room

oak dirge
#

scp 457 but 12vhpwr

blissful pilot
#

12vhpwr?

#

Also apperently 420-J can cure nausea while 500 cannot

#

I just learned that recently

#

It’s amazing that even while playing this name since late 2012, I still am learning new things about it

#

That is what makes a game great

oak dirge
blissful pilot
#

Oh shitttt right

#

It’s been a while since I built my PCs I forgot about that lol

#

Yeah I don’t know how I’ve had so much luck with building PCs I can’t say I know what I’m doing, and yet I’ve built 4 in my life time and had no issues with them

oak dirge
#

Only issues I've had personally is component aging and doa hardware. I've dealt with 2 billion problems from others though.

blissful pilot
#

Alright, here's the progress made today, as well as what I'm going to do which is lighting rooms

#

The remastered texture and .PSB file for the Class D's body as well as the other ones for Scientist and Janitor are like 95% done, just minor adjustments that need to be made and the text on the back

#

There's adjustment groups in the PSB file to change the color and brightness to match depending on if you want the Janitor or Scientist

#

They are remastered to a 6K texture, why 6K? 6K is the best sizing for the headscans, meaning we have the full 4K headscans, if we use those for the head of this texture, they would fit on a 6K texture, any bigger would stretch quality of the headscan, and any less like 4K would lose quality.

#

I also have an adjustment group/layer for removing the shading from the body to make it more albedo which will be helpful for us in making a PBR workflow for the RTX mod

#

Without Albedo Filter:

#

With Albedo Filter:

formal sierra
#

WOAHB

#

its a good day to have a 2nd monitor

#

i came back from walking ~~my ~~ my grandparents dog that we get for 2 months dog and just got an early christmas gift

blissful pilot
#

The last thing to be done is baking the headscans to the UV layout of the model: which the process shown here

#

of course, I'm going to do that much later on, right now until the end of the day (or technically until its done) i'm going to take a break and work on lighting light containment zone

formal sierra
#

YAY

blissful pilot
#

it would make lighting rooms a lot easier

formal sierra
#

wayy easier

#

ngl tho LCZ is one of the easier zones to light

blissful pilot
#

I'm gonna try to see if I can use my laptop or something

formal sierra
#

i finished it in a day compared to Entrance Zone which took 2 days

I have spare monitors too, just no room for it

formal sierra
#

i used to use my tablet lol

blissful pilot
#

unless..

#

nah thatll give me a headache actually

#

i was thinking of using my CRT

formal sierra
#

that'll give you space

blissful pilot
#

I'm so happy with the results of the class D remaster

formal sierra
#

i know it looks so good

#

very nice work :)

blissful pilot
#

its been 3 weeks of work on that

#

I wanted to finish it now because we found the Benjamin walker face

#

and I want to get these files out to people as soon as I can

#

but before I finalize that, im gonna do light containment zone to take my mind off it

#

plus @oak dirge o would probably be ecstatic to have 1/3 of the game playable in RTX

#

I mean I would too, except no PBR yet

formal sierra
#

also i've been curious since some of XtrithX's roughness maps are really like

#

harsh if that makes sense

blissful pilot
#

Getting the classd.b3d done will be such a huge milestone too

#

that model has been unchnaged since it was added

formal sierra
#

fingers :D

blissful pilot
#

Yep, the model is technically done, just needs cleanup with typology, animations need to be finished, only 1/4 are done, and of course as I said the textures are like 95% done

#

so awfully close

#

it'll definitely be the first character model put into game

#

*remastered model

formal sierra
#

wizardry

blissful pilot
#

unless you count 173

formal sierra
#

i see a UV map more complex than a cube and my brain combusts 😭

blissful pilot
#

which has been in the game since the beginning lol

formal sierra
#

your remaster of 173 is so awesome lol

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

i've gotten some really cool shots with that model in my game

blissful pilot
#

I wanted the remastered textures to still work with the older models and vice versa incase someone prefers one over the other

formal sierra
#

WAIT

#

bro no way

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

no way you made it hotswappable 😭

blissful pilot
#

Its been little bit of a pain, but i think its worth it

formal sierra
#

thats a crazy amount of work

#

but yeah thats really cool

blissful pilot
#

I've been doing it with every model I've made so far

#

I want to fix 173 and make 173 PBR as well

#

like make the 173 textures hotswappable

formal sierra
#

173 is already PBR tho no?

blissful pilot
#

hes like half pbr

formal sierra
#

i swear i saw a normal map in the download

#

oh

blissful pilot
#

he has specular, normal and diffuse

#

I want to albedo, roughness for it

#

like match the RTX remix PBR workflow

formal sierra
#

ahh ok

blissful pilot
#

Alright lets get lighting

formal sierra
#

😭

#

its so tedious

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

idk how it is in remix but URP sucks 😭

blissful pilot
#

I don't mind tedious as you probably seen

formal sierra
#

true lol

#

remix is definitely has way more graphical fidelity than Unity's rendering but at least its more performant lol

formal sierra
blissful pilot
#

Yep

#

all of it was a lot of work, but necessary as the asset is reused in many places

formal sierra
#

yeah :)

blissful pilot
#

The only one I couldn't for the life of me figure out is the deadend checkpoint in LCZ that has a keypad with no code

#

unless that also just falls under Checkpoint1 parameter, which would be strange

blissful pilot
#

Lit about 1/3 of LCZ, did a pretty good job too

#

gonna continue and finish lighting LCZ tomorrow as well as touchup and finalize that

#

I'll also send a video then as well as a progress update

blissful pilot
#

gosh

#

room1123 took so fucking long

#

seriously

#

I think I've been working on that one room for 2.5-3 hours alone

#

I can move on to other rooms though

#

I think room2sl will also take a long time, but thats the one I'm doing next

formal sierra
blissful pilot
#

Nearly done LCZ

#

might need the help of play testing though

#

seeing what needs tweaking and fixing

#

there might be a bit that needs small fixes

formal sierra
#

YES (it doesn't work 😭)

#

sorry i meant like

blissful pilot
#

oh yeah, i've had lighting working for a long time

formal sierra
#

why does it take a long time to light each room

#

ohh

blissful pilot
#

it just depends on the room

#

1123 took forever because you have to guess where the WWII bunker lights are, you have to light the containment room twice, because it has the event with a duplicate room, plus the lighting needs to be identical to sell the effect, plus the lightmaps have like three different temps of lighting and 6 lights in the room

#

it was just a lot

#

but most rooms, such as hallways or intersections are easy and take only a couple minutes

#

5-10 minutes tops for those

formal sierra
#

ohh shitt i forgot that the lamps/lights are designated as entities

blissful pilot
#

some of them yeah

#

hense why play testing is a must

formal sierra
#

yeah lol

blissful pilot
#

I'm also curious about 205

#

no idea how that one is gonna look

formal sierra
#

the lamp thing right?

blissful pilot
#

yep

formal sierra
#

would it even be possible

blissful pilot
#

my guess is that it does render target to map the shadows onto the wall

formal sierra
#

i think the shadows are just decals tho

blissful pilot
#

yea or that

#

if thats the case, we might be able to do something

#

I want to write a custom script for the game for NV googles though

#

NV goggles in RTX are as of right now, useless. putting them on just puts the overlay overtop of what you'd normally see, as NV goggles affect the fog and lightmaps in the base game

#

I want to write a script if I can that puts a mesh of some kind on the player's location at all times when wearing the NV goggles, that way we can use that hash to attach a light and make a convincing Night vision looking experience

#

thats just an idea I came up with though, no idea how viable it could be

formal sierra
#

hmmm that could work

#

does the fog change at all or is that also seperate?

blissful pilot
#

unfortunately yes.

#

ive had moments where my camerafog which was set to 99999 before putting on the goggles (randomly, not always) get set to a lower value like 0.5 when putting on the goggles in RTX

#

at least in my experience

#

I only played with it for a very short period while doing 035

#

actually yknow what

#

I'm going to attach a light to one of the items in one of the captures

#

just to try out that theory

#

im gonna see if the light moves with the item when i drop it

#

This is gonna be interesting

formal sierra
#

items?

blissful pilot
#

yeah

formal sierra
#

i didn't know the player even had a physical body?

blissful pilot
#

he doesn't

#

I wish he did for the remaster

#

would be pretty cool to see your shadow

formal sierra
#

yoink the code from UE kekw

#

btw, if you change any of the models do you have to like

#

re-capture it in RTX

blissful pilot
#

possible, although what a lot of people dont realize is how different they are

blissful pilot
#

I've been working on the classd.b3d and the capture i've been using for the intro has been the same since I joined this discord

#

so I think it has no effect

#

however

#

I want to try replacing the materials in RTX remix after changing the model

#

I think it should work in the way you think, just change the material for the game entirely

formal sierra
#

yay :D

#

what if you were to bevel every flat edge lol

blissful pilot
#

thats another thing I wanna play around with near the end, perhaps editing the meshes of the map itself

#

but it might be difficult or not possible, which is why I say near the end

formal sierra
#

srry a lot of questions but im actually interested i swear

#

wdym not possible?

#

like the geometry is bad or just like

#

its limited

#

idk if i was messing something up, but i tried bevelling some edges in LCZ and EZ and like

#

the other vertices twisted

#

also messes with the UVs slightly as well

blissful pilot
formal sierra
#

I KNOW

blissful pilot
#

also

formal sierra
#

luckily someone already wrote an rmesh converter for Unity 😔

blissful pilot
#

theres so much I want to change thats different from the base game

#

like this lamp

formal sierra
#

ITS ASS 😡

#

damn that lighting looks good

blissful pilot
#

its in room4info, its the lamp in the info office, normally the room is completely dark, but having the lamp in there i dunno. it breathes life into the room

#

theres a ton of stuff like that i want to do but I question whether it would take away from the game

formal sierra
#

yeah i actually ended up removing every single prop in every room

blissful pilot
#

another one is the offices in entrance, I want to use RTX remix to add books to what is mostly empty shelves

formal sierra
#

yeah the file props they have on the shelves look absolutely terrible bro

blissful pilot
#

the shelves look so weird with like four biners, 420-j and a radio

formal sierra
#

make it all 420-j

blissful pilot
#

aw man

formal sierra
#

would you like any of my FBX rooms that have no props/lights?

blissful pilot
#

i just remembered

#

I still gotta do 914

#

i feel like that is gonna take a while

#

im pretty sure that room has like 8 lights right?

#

I guess ill have to check

formal sierra
#

uh yeah:

914 input/output = 2
ceiling lights = (i think?) 4
side ceilng light props = 2

blissful pilot
#

good for animation side projects though

formal sierra
#

sure just LMK if you want any

#

i also renamed them to be more comprehensive

#

since the old room names are absolutely terrible

blissful pilot
#

whats wrong with the old room names?

#

I enjoy them, unless thats just me and my nostalgia

#

been playing this game almost since release

formal sierra
#

do u mean the room model names?

#

im talking about those they are hard to discern what each room is from just the name

blissful pilot
#

ah

#

in which case yeah

#

those are pretty bad
