Merge HL2 textures to create new ones.

Woow dude tis is cool and well explained

Hmm, i dont know much about macromedia fireworks, but is it possible to create that cool reflection effect in fireworks? or is it just coding?

I'm not sure that you should be trying to do window effects like that on the texture itself, you would probably want to do it with overlays. Still a cool tut, though.

Reflections are done in the map using Cubemaps NatUS... Good tutorial, don't have Fireworks myself, but I'm sure its the same principal for Photoshop.

Nice tutorial. I agree with Mryk let cubemaps do the reflections.

For Paint Shop Pro users without the glow effect use different shadowing effects around the window and you can make it look almost exactly the same.

Neat. Nice work.
