Greg-J:
Back in January of 2005 I did quite a bit of HL2 modding and thought a Goldeneye mod would be the most fun mod to make. I went looking for one already in development, but at the time too many people were talking about the mod they wanted to make and I'm more of a 'put up or shutup' kind of person so I quietly began work on my own that I gave the generic title of YaGEM (yet another goldeneye mod). I posted some map screens somewhere to share with people and was instantly contacted by a kid named Nick asking me to join up with him to create GoldenEye Source. I toyed with the idea, but ultimately decided to let it go when I couldn't get an OK from Rare and left it at that.

Fast forward 4 years and as a game developer I find myself interested in doing something on the side that isn't work related. I still have my first map and textures which is an exact 1:1 copy of the original stack/library. A few screens from way back when:

Map, textures and vtm's all made by me of course.


My intention was to create a much more literal interpenetration than you all are making, but I wouldn't mind bringing the map up-to-date by adding more detail.


Anyway, let me know.

PPK:
It is, in fact, a fantastic job in mirroring Rare's work to the Source engine. Those are some really detailed textures and it is certainly a good option for a classic version of the Library, in my personal and honest opinion. I can deduce you have improved in the last 4 years, so I can expect a much better work from your part (I don't expect anything, I just tried to say that it must be much better... :D). Probably you could post some screens of some of your most recent work. The devs will surely like to see more recent and past work if you are looking to make an application.

I must say that I'm happy more people are joining this mod; it really needs more and more manpower to continue striving forward and the release of BETA 3 just brought more members to the community.

I wish you a happy stay here in the forums; post more of your work so that we can share some feedback.

Best regards,

PPK

Dude, Library Classic need to look like THAT.

Hell, I'm repeating myself, but anyway...


AGREED

Wake[of]theBunT:
Hmm...I like the look of it, but im also partial to the style our mappers have of classics which is quite streamlined at this point.

Its not as blatant as yours. Its like a "stylized" classic. See what the mapper lead thinks.
