Ok, i have a few teaser shots of my map for you guys. I need to finish the following on my map still:

--Find that fu**ing error which still will not let me playtest it.
--Finish my skybox (not sure how to make an optimal skybox...)
--add soundscapes
--Lighting
--fix every bloody leak on the map (so far i've fixed about 30, but countless more keep popping up)

I'm very sure i won't make it in time for the compo... Shame too. :mad:

Various screens taken from completed areas:

looks good.... good enough for me to poop on!!!!

In the 2nd pic it looks like you have no skybox and your out in the void. Maybe thats why you can't compile and test play it?

Your map looks interesting, Hope to play it sometime soon.

Tr32k, I am currently redoing the skybox so it doesn't lag as much. Of course, it is still possible to playtest a map with on skybox, but not on my map since CSS is being gay.

In other news, the skybox is now done. Now i hafta light and bugfix, and it's ready for a release. :D

Are you going to enter this map in the map contest, or, are you just making it for fun?

I might post some images for my awp map soon, using a free webs sight. My map needs work on the textures though.

I would rather enter it in the compo... It just makes more sense. Although if my map problems persist, i'll end up posting it afterwards... :(

RRRR... Another bug... vvis.exe crashes now, when i compile. I'm looking into this, but i don't think it'll be easy to solve.

I know the troubles you are going through bro...I spent 2 months making my map.

If you want me to help you figure some of the stuff out you can send me the bsp and I can load it up and give ya some tips...I have worked throught tons of tutorials and really spent some time trouble shooting stuff :)

Looks cool from what I see so far though.

I am extremely pleased so far, and i'm sure almost all the leaks have been fixed. But even if I do figure out why my ProtalFlow is going so slow, I'll still have to work on the shadows, add soundscapes, and fix any ingame errors (ie. people finding ways to get out of the boundaries, etc.)

Not to mention the optimizing i've still got to do...

So yes, i will probably not make it for the contest... But this map will be worth adding to your server rotation, mark my words. :cool:

so when is this shit going to be finished?

As soon as i stop playing garrys mod and get working. It is very close to being finished, but there's a lot of optimizing left to do. Expect a release sometime this June, but don't expect it to be done in time for the contest. :(

The contest might be extended a few weeks, thats not offical though. So get working

your bitching about not making it in time for the contest :confused:
TRY BEING INELAGIBLE FOR IT :mad:

why you not eligable dark? Get cracking!

not eligable because i'm a Pro at making this shit :D and if i did make one for the contest i'd win >.>

Are you ineligible because you stole somebody else's map? Isn't that the only way you can become ineligible? ;)

I'll try to finish up.

cause hes 56k and those types of people suck...

No leaks! :D Although i do have various other problems with PRODVENTA and such. :-S

Are you ineligible because you stole somebody else's map? Isn't that the only way you can become ineligible? ;)

I'll try to finish up.

I don't steal other peoples material they steal mine O_O

sounds pretty cocky dark. put up or shut up :P lets see what you can do .

Rambo where is the VVIS compile and the VRAD??? DiD you just skip them ??? How long does the map take to do a full normal compile???

also there is a dropdown menue under edit to check the map for problems...it's a great way to find leaks and stuff :)

Hmm, it didn't take long to compile once i worked out the displacements on outside of the map.

My map still gets errors... AND I WANT TO PLAYTEST IT! :P

Sorry for the revival. Just would like to let you all know that the map is currently under inspection. I have no idea what's going wrong with it... for some reason, vvis doesn't even run when i compile.

In the meantime, another teaser :P

Hey Rambo....like I said before...just email me the vtf file and let me go over it....I can help ya out man....I have made a bunch of maps now and each time I make a new one I learn how to optimise it better and better.

If ya want some help just send me the file....

I can't get your email... :p

If you want to look at the un-compiled map, here's a download for you. good luck :P

Ok bro I'm gonna go over this map today and see whats up....I'll reply back to ya as soon as I'm done looking it over.

Thanks

Joe

Hey Rambo....I worked on your map for 3 hours today trying to get it to compile and I still cant fix it.....There is some bad geometry somewhere that is making it compile wrong and give errors....I dunno what to say....Do you have any other early versions that are working ???

I'm gonna just try and delete sections untill i find the part that is giving the error.....I'll get back to you on it soon.

I can tell you that the side inside the 'Northern Petrol' building is ok, as well as the train station. The error began when i was working on the main warehouse/garage next to it/house next to the garage.

I am afraid i have no earlier versions.... I have some, but they also have the error. If you really want, i can give them to you.
