Resources

Realistic virtual video requires realistic content in the form of maps, models, animations and script-based scenarios. While the sample content in the Source SDK offers a good starting point, many users will find that custom maps and models are necessary to capture the specific scenario of interest. Content creation can be the most time consuming aspect of simulated video, so this page was created as a way to distribute the effort and pool community resources. We encourage everyone to submit maps, models, scripts, animations, videos or any other content that would be useful to others. Please contact the website administrator to organize submissions.
