Is this a fake?

<div class="IPBDescription">Screenshot</div>Some persons saw the following sreenshot and said: This is a fake and this is impossible with HL-engine. I'm also not sure if this is correct, so please tell me: Is this 100% the original + the natural selection on the left or a fake ( I think it is a fake but I hope I'm wrong ).

    It's Natural Selection, all right, no photoshopping needed.

    I'll wager the 'fake' part is the particle-based steam effect you see rising from the floor grates. That is an NS-thing, not an HL-thing, so your friend was almost on the right track. Until he ran into Flayra...

    If you're wondering about the lighting, that's done with a whole bunch of light_spots at odd angles and point lights behind grates.  None of that is specific to NS, but it's generally not seen too much because straight texture lighting is a lot easier to set up.

    Even the Natural Selection text wasn't added in post.  That sprite appears there when running a map in the NSTR, and that's where that screenshot was taken (I can tell by the old HUD).

    Yes, the particle engine is amazing, but it also helps that Ken is a frickin' good mapper, too.

    That is some crazy stuff if you ask me. Kinda hard to believe you can do that with a 4 year old engine.....Meh, till NS comes out, I'll keep on typing.

    It just gives me a fuzzy feeling for people to think NS is fake because it looks so good. I mean, think about it.

    Bland, repetitive textures and simplistic architecture is <b>GREAT</b>, don't let anyone tell you differently Necro.
