New Dark Cubes!
Quote from theVDude on August 3, 2009, 5:06 amI'm just starting these, so far I've just some things from the dark cube from PuzzleOne, the first minipuzzle level.
What I have left to do now is fix the stripes and darkness of the cubes, and I've got some slick, easy to identify cubes!

Hiding at the top of the stairs, I see!
FLOAT
Took me a while to figure out what to do, but they match, they're pretty good looking, and I'm using them!
Just extract to portal/portal if you want to use them. It you're using a custom cube skin now, make sure you have it backed up.

And ignore that download. I tested them in a low resolution, windowed mode. Have to fix the gamma fix. Grah!

I'm working on another set to match reepblue's warm texture pack better.

Quote from penapappa on August 4, 2009, 2:09 pmI wonder, if you can make a cube like this: It's like those that vdude made, but have the heart logo of transparent pink colored glass, and then you place a light inside the cube and parent it with it, so it cast light out from those glass parts...

Quote from theVDude on August 4, 2009, 2:41 pmI can't do that, I guess if you changed the model it'd be possible. But probably not for use in regular game.

If it is a huge success, I might add the skin to the box model that has the fire cube and the green cube and so on. And update my Blue Portals file and the warm texture file. (Which I wanted to add a vmf to it anyway. . ) That way people can keep the old skin on the Portal model, but have the matching box in Blue Portals/Other maps that use the textures. Keep it up!

The more you give, the less appreciated it will be received.

Hurray, skype!
