Mi vida a traves de mi arte

Para saber un poco sobre la razon de este articulo, pegarle una miradita a mi articulo introductorio:

Hola me presento!

A veces he hecho cosas que no estan necesariamente relacionadas con JUGAR los juegos

Hacer un MOD de Half Life 1

El juego Half Life fue lanzado en 1998 por Valve (que hoy en dia todos conocen por STEAM). Fue un juego revolucionario en 1ra persona en ese momento, y definitivamente uno de mis videojuegos mas amados de todos los tiempos. Lo jugaba TANTO cuando tenia 15 o 16 años que decidí empezar a meterme con el editor de niveles que traia (worldcraft)

Estaba BASTANTE OBSESIONADO con el editor. Realmente me gustaba experimentar con espacios 3d y aprender las diferentes maneras de hacer que las cosas ocurrieran en el mundo que creaba. Despues de algunos años haciendo cosas por diversion (diria que 1 año dedicado a full a aprender cosas), decidi hacer algo con todo eso, y enfocarlo en lanzar un MOD para el juego

MOD = Modificacion. Se toma el codigo base del juego, se modifica un poco, se agregan cosas propias artisticas y se lanza algo nuevo. El ejemplo mas conocido.. el Counter Strike nacio como un mod de Half Life.

Obviamente que un MOD de verdad requeriría un programador, que yo no soy, un animador, que yo no soy, requeriria alguien que haga texturas, que yo no soy, un diseñador UX, que yo no soy, una persona que haga modelos (para armas y enemigos), que yo no era, y un diseñador de niveles, QUE YO SÌ ERA! Por eso es que siempre senti que mi "MOD" mas que un mod era un Pack de mapas, porque lo unico diferente que hice fue hacer los niveles

Cree 3 niveles con una historia basica, muy basica, descargue texturas y reutilice las armas, items y enemigos del juego base. Mi foco estaba en hacer que los niveles se vieran bien y el gameplay fuera divertido

Me tomo menos de 2 meses hacerlo cuando volvia del colegio. Se llamo:

SPACE PRISONER

Envié el mod a una pagina de reseñas de MOD muy conocida de esa epoca (ten-four, que ya no existe) y obtuvo una reseña MUY BUENA y una medalla de plata.

Fue lanzado si recuerdo bien por el 2001/2022 y hasta el dia d ehoy a veces recibo mails de personas que lo jugaron en algun lugar y les gustó. O algun comentario en alguna web donde esta colgado el ejecutable, lo que es algo que verlo que aun hoy pasa me llena de alegria.

Y aqui linkea a un walkthrough (no recuerdo la palabra en castellano) si no quieres tener que descargar todos los archivos necesarios para jugarlo (necesito agregar que no tuve nada que ver con la persona que jugo el juego y subio el video, mis agradecimientos. Aunque no me gustó que juegue con el brillo tan alto)

Y aqui hay una parte de la reseña que me hicieorn en la web anteriormente mencionada (sin traducir)

This small sized map pack completely took me by surprise when I started playing it. Experience told me to expect nothing extra-ordinary or original from a first release mapper. Space Prisoner broke that general rule, showing that Edusan is one of the very few first release mappers that can pull off something as original as this. The care and attention that is paid to detail and the believabBoldle atmospheres you encounter keep you immersed in the game until the end credits subtly let you know to quit. The brushwork and design layout is top notch, creating perfect environments for consistent gameplay.
All in all, if you are looking for something different from the typical grunt-fest-type-mod, download this pack. You will not be disappointed, which is why I am giving it a silver medal.

Gracias a ese mod, y a otras cosas que nunca fueron lanzadas, fui contactado por alguien que estaba tratando de hacer un videojuego y buscaba formar un equipo (cuando ser un desarrollador indie era REALMENTE INDIE)

Sobre eso hablare en la proxima parte de ...MI VIDA A TRAVES DE MI ARTE

My ART through my life

might sound funny but its KINDA varied along the years

Im 37 years old and for almost half of those year i've been EDUSAN on the web. Mostly used for the different online games i've played my whole life (from Diablo 1 on battle.net to now on the blockchain games), but sometimes i've done stuff that is not necesarilly related to PLAYING the games

I will start from my very first "Big" artistic expression that i can show evidences of!

Doing a HALF LIFE 1 Mod

Half life was a videogame released in 1998 by Valve (which most of us now know because of STEAM). It was a revolutionary First person shooter at that time, and definetely one of my most beloved games of all time. I loved it so much back when i was 15/16 years old, that I decided to start playing with the level creator tool from that time (Worldcraft)

I was PRETTY OBSESSED with it. I really like experimenting with 3d environments and learning the different ways to get things done in the editor. After some years doing stuff for fun (i would say 1 year dedicating a lot of time to learning stuff), I decided to do and release and MOD for it.

MOD = Modification. You take the code of the base game, tweak it a bit, add your own artistic assets and release something new. Most common example... Counter Strike was born as a Mod of Half life

Of course a REAL mod would need a programmer, which i was not, it would need an animator, which i was not, it would need a texturer, which i was not, a UX designer, which i was not, a modeller (for weapons and enemies), which i was not, and a Level designer, WHICH INDDED I WAS! So I always felt like calling my "mod" a mod was an overstatement so I always called MAP PACK, because the only different thing from the base game was the maps.

I created 3 levels with a basic story, downloaded the textures and reused weapons, items and enemies from the standard game. I was more focused on doing the levels look cool and the gameplay being fun.

Took me less than 2 months. It was called:

SPACE PRISONER

I sent it to a very well known Half life mod review site from that time (ten-four, now extint) and it got a PRETTY GOOD review and a silver medal.

It was released if i remember correctly in 2001/2022 and upto this day i still receive emails from people that download it from somewhere and liked it (or got stuck somewhere), which is something that fills me with JOY honestly

And here there is a walkthrough in Youtube if you dont want to go through the hassle to download all the files needed to play it yourself (I need to add that I had nothing to do with this guy wanting to upload it to youtube, cheers to him. Although i never liked that his walkthrough is like SUPER BRIGHT, when i did it I did my best trying to do a good atmosphere, somewhat lost in having everything so bright)

Here are some parts of the review done on the previously mentioned ten-four website

This small sized map pack completely took me by surprise when I started playing it. Experience told me to expect nothing extra-ordinary or original from a first release mapper. Space Prisoner broke that general rule, showing that Edusan is one of the very few first release mappers that can pull off something as original as this.

Because of that mod and some other unreleaesd stuff I was contacted by a guy trying to do a videogame (when INDIE DEVELOPERS WERE REALLY INDIE)

That will be next Part of ....MY LIFE THROUGH MY ART!
