Also , it mind sound stupid , but actually making advanced puzzles is so hard to make in SourceSDK. Best bet is to go for simple yet really hard looking puzzles

Yeah that's exactly what I mean.
They'd need to be simple but not annoyingly boring.
Hmm.

I'm currently working on the map. Building an office room on the end of the corridor with a glass window into a big warehouse!

A nice example can be taken from HL2 itself , remember the part with the airboat where you needed to firstly higher a ramp with blue barrels and then the second ramp by putting objects in the scale to make the ramp higher. (second one can be a little harder). The puzzles are easy as pie , but when I firstly saw those , I was like WTF?

Yeah I know what you mean.
I'll see what I can come up with.

Mmm I hate puzzles, because I'm a distracted person.. sometimes it's really easy to solve them but I don't know why I can't xD and I end up cheating like Pewdie sometimes does, and then I'm like "WOW, That was too easy, silly me" but yeah but they got a point. So keep working on that too :P

Make sure you have some time-consuming puzzles like in amnesia so the player gets a chance to enjoy the scenery before moving on.

Yeah me too. But I do think it'd be good to include them in the mod.
If I can make them that is...

Storywriter?
Call me anyday.

note: why make a mod when you can make a game. using unity3d. great ui. easy code(c# scripting over c++. c# is way easier). but still a mod is probably easier to recruit for.

Because everythings already there, I'm not making the backbone of the game and I'd want to be a level designer and making a mod is 85% mapping so it's good practise without the stress of everything else.
I also have no idea where to start with a game.

Also unity performs poor on older machines , atleast the common shizzle out now which are actually poorly coded clusterfucks... I don't even want to see the console getting spammed in debug mode.

Been working on the mapping some more.
Got the second room kind of finished.
Next room is a warehouse. Got the outline which you'll see in the video but it's going to be a lot taller.

What do you guys think?
Youtube might've messed with the quality/brightness.

Looks darn nice , but I suggest to even use less lights if you want to make a really scary game. If the mod would end up like something Afraid of Monsters , then it would be golden... meaning full darkness and such (although I don't know how source engine will handle that , I don't know which or what version supports dynamic lighting)
