bottom addon in the description fixes that and more!

seems to make glass shards really bright, most noticeably in the gun shop when you break the glass cases
is that fixable?

maybe

weapon only version?

ty :)

nice

there you go media buff :). enjoy! Needlessly Shiny Fix + Props Fix + Glass Fix + L4D1 Bus Reference Texture Fix + Bridge Ironwork Fix

ok sure :)

not without MST, with it and without weapon VMTs

a version with no MST?. sure i will do it but not right now :)

in that case, could there be a no weapon VMT MST version?

its not a stupid question but its short for map specific textures its in an addon i use so i made it compatible with my addon

stupid question but what does MST stand for?

Xeno i made the addon finally lol and with more bonuses

@Xeno :] https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=133544013

lens flare??. also i cant be bothered to make an addon thats compatible with the prop fix addon lol

Could you possibly remove the lens flare too, or make it work with the prop fix mod?

@Poleeyan put this mod above or below the other mods in addonlist.txt or leave it how it is, most mods dont really conflict with this, they just have the .vmt as a backup and niko edited all the .vmts

sure but idk when lol because im working on a fix for the low res css and hl2 textures

could you do a version where it only removes the shine from the guns

oh yeah i was going to make a patch for them because i use them lol. but i never got around to it

sad

I know another mod that also removes the shine from the models, but the problem with this one is that it downscales the textures and removes the fog.

no problem :)

there you go fate!. enjoy :)

also you didnt offend me at all fate

its fine dont worry and sure i will have a look and try to fix it

how is it not a fix?. it fixes all props that shine in the dark and just make them look good in general

yeah i did do something with a spitter file so if you want i could try to make a fix for you

it doesnt remove any reflects (you mean reflections) it removes the random shine of props that dont need it, like the water coolers. also the name is for.. lets just say less competent people who dont know much about source.

thank you KILROY!

Hey man, you the best!

its because the glass has no base texture uni

np reaper!. :)

This is a very good fix thx man :)

My guy, I've done just as much work with Valve material files and in no way did I ever encounter the bugs you're talking about, nor is it documented anywhere. Should you provide with the evidence of that fact, otherwise Diffuse is Diffuse, Specular is Specular. Plain and simple.

lol

Listen, scientist cubemap, I was engaged in mappering and I definitely know much more than you, I won’t even write anything else, I wrote what I think about this mod and wrote what game developers are freaks for me, this is enough

shao the legend

There's nothing to prove. They are two different material settings. Clearly you have no idea how to differentiate specular from phong.

In case you didn't know. Nearly everything other than survivors and specials have no proper normals outside a generic flat square to save on memory and add a very basic sheen that reacts to lights.

Specular reflections use cubemaps preset/auto generated in the map and have no support for lights in L4D2 hence why they are making objects glow in the dark often due to poor cubemap placement.

env_map was a cheap way to add reflections in at the time. Especially for the 360 port.

look at the screenshots carefully and then prove to me if there is something to prove

E҉✘ᎥℓE҉ They are two different functions, it doesn't.

ok

deleting this line deletes the bump

i didnt remove the bump maps of the vmts i removed a line called env_cubemap

Removing the bump in the game only leads to the fact that the graphics become disgusting. The problem of l4d is that the bump in this game is broken. It needs to be fixed and not removed.

oh my god i never knew im dumb for doing it manually thank you shao

My guy, my poor guy. VMT files can be searched in bulk with notepad++ and have their content replaced or commented out. I feel sorry for you if you actually did this manually. A good favor no less, but you went through a lot of effort that could have been less, it's commentable but be sure to check out for alternatives before commiting to such ideas.

there you go piterson hope you enjoy!

thanks g00k!
