Description
High Resolution Cubemaps & Shadows

This is a map from Half-Life 2's campaign. I strongly recommend having played the original game first before experiencing this.

Another map where I showcase the maximum extent of the Source Engine's static lighting system using GMod's 64bit compile tools. Features 256x256 resolution cubemaps and the highest resolution shadows possible without the compile tools throwing errors due to to many vertices or faces being to complex for lightmaps. Yes, this is different from the "2020" trainstation map, because this has the interior as well and is meant for campaign playthrough.

Compiled for LDR & HDR and retains full functionality as long as you have Half-Life 2 purchased & installed on Steam, and mounted in Garry's Mod. Also Includes a navmesh.

Completing the level as you would in Half-Life 2 will take you to d1_trainstation_03_hrcs if you are subscribed to it.

Map name is d1_trainstation_02_hrcs, and can be found in the "Half-Life 2" map section.

Misc info/trivia:
  • If starting the map from the console or map selection screen, you will spawn at a random spawn point, not at the beginning of the map. This may be fixed in the future. Continuing from the previous map may not result in the same issue.
  • I opted to not do the "grass fix hack" that I did for the original 2020 map for 2 reasons; 1 being that some time recently, the hack got a bit more broken and no longer randomly distributes sprites, now putting them in ordered rows and columns, 2 being that tall grass growing on dry dirt doesn't make too much sense.
  • Features geometry and entities hidden by the original Valve mappers.
  • This map is not from a decompile.

If you don't have Half-Life 2 mounted, it's possible that scripted sequences will not play, or may be bugged.

Missing texture issue should be fixed now, make sure you subscribe to the HRCS Common Assets addon listed under the required items section.

I'm having a weird issue where the skybox seems wrong. The shadows are like mid-day as usual for that map, but the skybox is night, with a really high definition moon, and I'm not sure what is causing this. probably another adon but I removed all that effect skyboxes.

I tried playing on this map and it sadly knocked out my computer. I still love it though with the HDR. Aww man! :c
