I think Larry is saying that he must have decompiled his map to see how big the skybox is, not to copy the spawns.
[QUOTE=ole johan]Nothing happens with the combine helicopter, gunship or dropship.[/QUOTE] hmm, it worked for me, it seems that the air nodes for source are a little unreliable, I'm getting mixed responses, works for some doesn't for others. Sorry don't no how to help you. [b]Edit:[/b] [QUOTE=SenorJose]I think Larry is saying that he must have decompiled his map to see how big the skybox is, not to copy the spawns.[/QUOTE] larry says him self in the desciption how big the sky box is, also on page 2 or 3 of the comments he has posted an image from inside hammer itself, he is contradicting himself. [b]Edit:[/b] You can also tell how tall the skybox is by playing both maps and seeing who's is higher. Larry you need to calm down and stop assuming and pointing the finger at someone without thinking about. Of all people I would of thought you would no this.
Can i just clear something here? Larry, don't act like you made the circle it's been done before, don't act like you found something new out. Anyway, nice map. May download later :)

I mean come on, it has been 5 days, and suddenly a stream of flatgrass remakes appears after I released mine. Why is everybody whining about the geomitries? I just mean the overall look. It's almost idendical. [b]Edit:[/b] [QUOTE=Willowbj]Oh my god guys, he has put a circle in his map oh no that not right, he must of decompiled a map to do that oh my god he must of copied larry. NOT. Oh no he has made a flat grass map he must of copied larry. NOT. Oh no he had put the name or the map on his images oh my god he copied larry. NOT. Dude seriously there are hundreds of people before you that have used circles in maps, made flat grass maps and bloody put a name on an image. Jeas jelousy at it's max.[/QUOTE] Will you stop fucking whining about shitty circles? :v: And the jealousy part is bullshit, it's Wilsonbj who's jealous. He suddenly decided to do exactly the same thing as I did. And I know I'm not original either. I just made a circle with some crappy water around it which doesn't seem to work for alot of people. And the community seems to like it. Now, what do I see a week later? An almost identical copy of it, hoping to get as much attention as I did, lol. So go tell Wilsonbj he has paying very close attention to my map. :science:

The textures and style of the map are not rightly yours nor are they wilsonbj's. Another point is wilsonbj has been using this style and textures long before you have and others before him and others after him, has he complained when someone has the same style or used the same textures, no.

I don't even no why were fighting about this, drop it seriously, not a big deal. [b]Edit:[/b] [QUOTE=Larry G]Wut? Did I say something that isn't correct? :q:[/QUOTE] I'm not trying to critisis you larry you seem to be a good mapper I'm just meerly speaking on the behalf of most mappers.

His cosntruct_revolution is in fact another makeover of a makeover. And how is a use of textures a [i]style[/i]? It's a build map, not art. Now tell me, did he made this before, or after I released this? Just forget about this, I mianly wanted to state something, that's all.
To Be Honest This Looks like it is just a map made to copy another... [b]Edit:[/b] [QUOTE=Larry G]Bleh bleh bleh, don't try to run away from ze facts. :v: Wilson never made anything like this before.

Might it be possible that he likes your level design and wanted to incorporate some of it in his map, and if this is true, there's nothing to be upset about. It simply means that he likes your mapping and is inspired by it.
I agree with willowbj. You don't need to get upset and protective. Every mapper has the right to make what they want. Nice map :)
I sorta agree that wilsonjb sort of has taken larry's idea, it doesn't feel right when your ideas are taken but yea i also agree what -ASH- said. [QUOTE]Might it be possible that he likes your level design and wanted to incorporate some of it in his map, and if this is true, there's nothing to be upset about.

P.S: still, nice map wilsonjb
Yeh, sorry that I got a [i]little[/i] upset there. I just don't like it when people kinda 'use' my map design. But I have to agree, it's a nice looking map. :v:
While I acknowledge that this isn't a direct copy or anything, you did basically make a simple remake of flatgrass utilizing a concept that was just successfully released 5 days earlier - it does seem like you've utilized a recent idea in another "simple flatgrass" remake. While ideas are interchangeable, as -ASH- said, you don't seem to have added anything and have no previous maps to boot. As such I'm interested in knowing when you started work on this.
[QUOTE=Larry G]I just don't like it when people kinda 'use' my map design.[/QUOTE] You used Garry's design (or whoever made gm_flatgrass), he didn't go in to your thread and start complaining about stuff
Flatgrass and Construct are exempt from being copied. They are the base idea of Gmod. Open space to build in. Hooray. Without that concept, Gmod is pointless. The map makers are free to do whatever they want, that's ok. But: This map was made with the exact same style, textures, and skybox as flatgrass 2008, just a few days after it's release. I'm all for improving on maps, but blatant copy and pasting is stupid. We do not need more than one flatgrass at a time. In my opinion, flatgrass 2008 surpasses all previous remakes. Gm_flatgrass_revolution is a rip of the art style, shape, and idea of fg2008. That is [i]not[/i] OK!
[QUOTE=FluD]another ugly grass, i hate valve grass, use grass from crysis[/QUOTE] ..whah? This is Garry's grass texture. Gm_contruct's grass.
That map is pretty.
It's...a flatgrass map. [quote=The rules of GMod]And if ye shall build, use [url=http://xuras.co.cc/]gm_botmap_v2[/url], for it is by far the best build map.[/quote] Hey, I don't make the rules, I just tell 'em. (Want to make an original map? [url=http://azrael.ismywe.com/maps/]Click here.[/url])

What "art style", it's a circle. This map isn't a circle. Finally, what "idea" are you talking about? The same "idea" of every other flatgrass, a large flat area of grass?
Oh God... is this the beginning of a pandemic of Flatgrass maps?

Excellent map. I'm quite surprised/impressed with the view distance underwater. Also while I'm on the subject, a question for you mappers out there: Is it possible to change the view distance underwater or is it kind of limited? It seems that a lot of maps, gm_construct, gm_construct2008, gm_megastruct_revolution, etc have have different distances.
[QUOTE=Larry G]You decompiled my map? Jesus Christ.

It ads more functionality to the existing Flatgrass, while not straying too far from the basic concept. It is also more comfortable to be in.

[QUOTE=Larry G]That was basically why I got pissed about this map. :v:[/QUOTE] You don't have the right to be pissed. He did nothing wrong. He used "your" concept of a better looking flatgrass.

If that does not work delete garrysmod and download it again. There seems to be a problem with the core files. Sorry if this is bad news for you.
By the way, I Think you should make another one. (Not because this is dumb, Because you will make a great one.) Also, Nice water texture. I Still got an texture error UNDER the water, With the fix. Anyway, great shit :)
