Black Mesa Alpha Pack

New Black Mesa texture pack coming soon from the original creator of The Black Mesa Texture Pack series.

Hi folks, just want to post an update here to let you all know that I'm working on a new texture pack named Black Mesa Alpha. By the obvious title it is a pack which will contain collection of Half Life recreated texture with an appropriate touch for Source Engine. The pack will also contain brand new rework of my old texture that were included in the previous release of my Black Mesa series (Black Mesa Texture Pack 1 & 2).

While BMS will be released soon (if ever), this project is meant to be more of a fun challenge for me to improve my skills, to add my own personal touch and perspective to how I think Half Life visual should look on Source. Hopefully some of you may find my texture pack of some value once it's released

All the texture you see so far are handpainted in Photoshop to the smallest details with subtle use of photosource. A lot of unnecessary work but I don't have the skill to make hi-polies model. Files are properly organized this time and the shaders (SSBump/Normalmap, specular, details, etc) are properly done unlike my old packs that were very sloppy-looking, were thrown in to Crazybump, then tossed in to the folders.

    Lol, u not plaing in Black Mesa Alpha build leak?

    Also to author: what the quality of the textures?

    There are a few texture that are 2048x2048, a few that are 1024x1024, but the rest sits at 512x512 or 256x512 for optimization purpose.
