I don't like big maps...I get lonely...
Great mapping
aah man this is NICE. Mapping kinged :D
I'mma go swing around and hide and other forementioned shizz.
[QUOTE=LimEJET]I just swung around this map with the ninja rope SWep, Fucking awesome. Imma go look for a server with both the map and the SWep, and then I'll do some ninja hide'n seek :3:[/quote]
For those of you who haven't tried it, DO IT! download the VIP swep pack (search for 'ninja' on gmod.org), get out the ninja rope, and do a spiderman!
I also discovered another ninja SWep which makes you able to jump like hell; perfect for ninja parkour!
God, this map is so awesom for going up to the highest point, and jumping from building to building, seeing how long you can stay jumping before you fall, and have epic mid air battles.
This is the BEST map I have ever played. If it's even possible, you should really carve out some more interior, that would make it the best map. Ever.
...
EVER.
I'm not much of a map enthusiast, but for a practice map, I have to say that this is freaking amazing, and unlike alot of city maps, looks like it actually resembles a city and not just blocks in rows.
Well done.
For those of you who don't know, this is the same guy who did gm_atomic...

i cannot get it to work.
In v2 in the tallest building there should be an office lobby and an elevator to the top. And if possible a monorail going through the city?
[QUOTE=Janooba]Guys! My friend uploaded it to filefront!
Heres the link: [url]http://files.filefront.com/gm+bigcityzip/;12689081[/url][/QUOTE]
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Does look exactly like Hugecity...
[QUOTE=bumtown]Bloody nice map mate, but what does this mean? "- Mysterious invisible trains and cars and dogs" :uhoh:[/QUOTE]
lol , thats funny but it is kinda true
[QUOTE=SSBMMASTER]i cannot get it to work.[/QUOTE]
First, download [url=http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=39857]The VIP SWep pack[/url] and extract it into Addons.
Then, load up the map, go to the 'Weapons' tab and select 'Ninja rope' or 'Ninja rope 2v2'.
You should now be holding a weapon without viewmodel.
Take aim at a building that's not too far away (the rope stretches to a maximum of approx. 30 meters) and fire.
A rope should now be visible between you and the place you aimed at. To shorten the rope, press Space. to lengthen it, press Ctrl. To retract the rope, press Secondary fire.
For a good swing:
Get up on a tall building.
Take aim at another building, preferably at a point on the same height as you, and fire.
Jump off the building, and make sure the rope remains stretched. Press W and the directional key that is away from the building to stop yourself from crashing into it. Looking away from the building also helps.
When at the bottom of the swing, start holding Space to shorten the rope. This will increase your momentum.
When you've gathered enough speed, and are heading upwards again, press secondary fire to let go, then take aim at a new building.
Simple!
Oh, and as a side note:
The 'Ninja rope 2v2' can use two ropes at a time, and can also latch onto prop_physics and other entities. It is also possible to hold another weapon while still holding the ninja rope, but then you can't make a new rope or let go of the old ones. Te controls for 2v2 is:
Prim. Fire: Toggle first rope
Sec. Fire: Toggle second rope
Space: Shorten both ropes
Ctrl: Lengthen both ropes
Space+E: Shorten first rope, lengthen second
Ctrl+E: Lengthen first rope, shorten second
[B]Edit:[/B]
I found a useful glitch with the ropes:
When on the ground, aim and fire high up on a building in front of you.
Lengthen the rope a bit, then hold space and press yourself towards the building. After a while, the rope will become extremely stretched, and catapult you high into the air. Just remember to let go of the rope as soon as you're moving.

Woah, wall of text...
I failed with the L4D converting...
Oh well, I tried...
I just submitted an article for [url]www.garrysmod.com[/url]
I honestly think that these maps (I am talking about all bigwigs maps in general) would have to rank up next to Sgt. Sgt's maps in utility and general awesomeness. and didn't he say that if he added even one more thing that the map wouldn't compile?
[QUOTE=The_Penguins]Is there any way you could tone down the lighting, it looks almost fullbright looking at the screenshots (If it's impossible because of map size or something forgive me). Other than that it's awesome.[/QUOTE]
Use color correction and bloom post processing effects to tone it down.
[b]Edit:[/b]
It is a bit blocky, But really, IT'S FUCKING HUGE. Incredibly cool to build shit like airplanes, choppers and any type of cars on this one. Would be cool to build tanks with gcombat and battle each other in the city. Could also fit for a D.I.P.R.I.P map.
[b]Edit:[/b]
The teleport to apartments and roof idea is really cool. You should add a sound to it... Like the sound of someone walking in a stair or something. Or you could make the client fade in and out. Just make one of those triggers that make you do a convar. "Fadein" and "fadeout". I'm going to use it in my rp maps, because really, Apartment buildings are a pain in the ass.
And you can make the actual apartments somewhere else, to be gentle on visibility.
PLEASE MAKE LOVE TO ME.
Pg. 3 King. :D
This map is AWESOME! Thanks so much, and great job.
I was having a great time, but then it crashed. Everything.
Suddenly, I spawned a SENT, and attacked it. All of a sudden, a huge amount of garbled textures whizzed past me, game still running. Then the entire computer froze, my music looping, a whurring sound increasing and increasing more and more... I held the power button, hoping everything was alright when I turned it back on... it was.
Hell, it didn't even bluescreen. I'll try running the program in ring 1 instead of ring 0, see if that helps.
Now, make it dark and L4D looking, I would love if this had a dark side to it, it would look more l4dish then l4d maps. Make a dark variant! :D
Yes a night version would be very awesome, with lots of street lights and maybe some of those spotlight thingo's they have on top of buildings in hollywood.
But seriously gm_simplicity used to be my favourite map for doing just about anything now this is, and the best thing is i get next to no drop in fps at all anywhere in the map a solid 30 no matter where i am, i was afraid that this map would have way to many poly's and i wouldn't be able to use it but it works great!!!!
Also i love the couple i buildings i managed to find with some interior and there are lots of little areas with only one or two narrow access points great for building forts and stuff.
My only gripe is the 3d skybox is abit dodge in some places and the kinda factory looking buildings in the skybox are very dodgy.
But all up 9.5/10
Wow mate.
I recently started working with Hammer, and you only really, truly appreciate the mappers who make maps like this when you see the time and effort that needs to be put into it.
I made a small and basic map that took me like 2 days for a few rooms and some features..
Much Kudos to you mate.
Garrysmod.org uses a mirror called [url]http://coblitz.codeen.org/[/url]
[quote]CoBlitz is temporarily overloaded, so we bounce the request back to the origin server.[/quote]
I assume the origin server "garrysmod.org" is SLOW AS SHIT!!!
anyone have a mirror?

Very good, must have taken a long time to texture/make!
Reminds me of [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=5322[/url]
It kind of looks like a dev style of this one.
I have a shit computer, and this map is virtually lagless. Thank you so much for making this.
Shit, the AI nodes clinched it.
How the fuck did you optimize it that well? :v:
Do you like scaring people who find easter eggs?
