Maar nu weer back on topic:
[QUOTE=Feralicous;16816619]NO.[/QUOTE]
Why not? I'm not going to do it, but still.. Why not?
IN my first HP map, (with only the interior of hogwarts) I made secret passways and doors and other things, and you had to hit some special squares with a symbol on them, if you've been in a special classroom the stone wich you hit, (if you went to the same classroom with the same spell symbol as on the stone) and it activated something secret, like a mirror to climb a floor up.

Kroepoe: En t stormt hierzo, dus ik moet misschien ff pc uit doen zo...
And my project of using less brushes with more detail is almost done!
I have removed most bugs, and it is running smoothly without weird light errors!

Het gaat niet lukken met msn ben ik bang,
mn msn adres werkt wel, maar msn zelf werkt niet op mijn pc, hij geeft een geheugenfout elke keer als ik het wil opstarten,
Maar steam gaat wel lukken ;), ik stuur mn adres wel naar je toe.

[QUOTE=Kroepoe;16755057]I'm making a map of Hogwarts castle (from Harry Potter, duhh!), and I'm not nearly finished (as you can probably understand, since I've only worked on it for less than a week). But I still wanted to let you see what I have already.
btw, the textures are NOT final, I'm not real good at texturing, but the textures you can see is just so you can see what it's going to be like.

Is that first picture the clock tower? Or are you confused with another tower? At that exact place a clock tower is suposed to be. But doesn't matter ;), I am sure oyu can think of a creative way of chaging hogwarts a bit so it gets better to recreate in hammer with less brushes :P.
It is a clocktower ;)
ow :P
btw, heb jij mij al toegevoegtd via steam?
[editline]06:51PM[/editline]
And now I am confused, what is the location of that clock tower?
[editline]06:54PM[/editline]
Here, look what I found! A original map of hogwarts, the true version (might contain some erors) but the basic concept is right! Alot of maps aren't from the original but this is!
I just thought you would find it handy using this one ;)

Turns out my version of hogwarts wasn;t even correct :(

Yep ik heb je toegevoegd ;)
That's a picture wich is about the same as the Google Sketchup model I found.
BTW the clock tower is that big building at the end of the bridge (at the side with the square and the broken fountain..)
Yep, figured that one out already ;)

[QUOTE=-Xemit-;16836180]The clock is flipped...[/QUOTE]
Yeah, traditional Harry Potter style ey! :D
I had to email a guy a long time ago for this map. It's very good. A piece of advice though. Hogwarts changes throughout the movies a lot. Not really the castle itself but the location of it. If you go here you can see some maps of hogwarts and the [b]entire[/b] surrounding area. [url]http://www.hplex.info/atlas/hogwarts/atlas-h.html[/url] Some maps on this site are labled extremely well. (The first few are rough sketches by Rowling and others. You can also find a map of hogsmeade and diagon alley on that site.)
Map I got through email =

You're on a good track but it needs ALOT of work.
Is this map dead or what, I really like to see you finish this project.
When you where still busy with mapping, you were working so hard.
So keep it up, and finish this lady ;)
Lol epic bump.
Yeah.. pretty busy with schoolwork, I have to make it this year :P
:P
Same here, but in a few weeks I think I will start mapping again on my doctor who map,
I will take the liberty in creating a small piece of the exterior, just to give you some reference to work with.
I wil start in about a hour, my pc is still in maintaince, cleaning all my virusses I got while opening a old backup,..
[editline]02:37PM[/editline]
Though, mapping with a scanner active aint that hard for my pc :P
I'll start now.
Ok, because this thread is almost dead.. I started to cheer it up a little. I remade my own exterior with the new references I've found.
Not to hijack this topic, but here is some of the work I did this week.
Click the image for a bigger one, when new page laoded and the pic is still small, click the image and it will become the original size in your browser.

Looking really really good!:)
I would suggest you something:
use 3d ripper (a tool what takes 3d models from games you're playing) and use them as a start. Use HP5, and make some nice models. Then take them to map, and you've got the most precise Hogwarts map. I don't say it will be easy. It will be hard. Very hard. And mostly it will take a LOT of time. But time is money, and money is good. So if you make a good map, under the minimal time, then it will be like gold. Free gold.
I demand that the moving staircases be implemented.
mmh,
But thats like stealing the hard work of the people who developped hp5, and it wouldn't feel like
a map I made my own also :(.
And this is someone else his topic, I just remade my exterior. So I can't really take up this topic, seeing as Kroepoek is the one making this map. And as he studies now, I am sure he will pick up this project in a few weeks ;).
And if not, I will keep mapping on my own hogwarts also, so if this map dies, my map would be like a backup. This way I am nog stealing the idea away of hogwarts, but I'll be the second choice when things go wrong.

[QUOTE=Ndsfreak;17567225]I demand that the moving staircases be implemented.[/QUOTE]
And yea, thats something I really like! Good point, gonna add it in the weekend, and as for kroepoe make a list of things you want to add aswell, seeing it is your map wich is in development. Mine is just beeing created in the shadows.
There's a chance I'll get back to mapping, not sure though.. With MW2 coming out and all. But we'll see in a month or so! [good idea that your mapping too, I would love to see just any hogwarts map. I don't care who made it]
:P, I'll be having a heavy week next week, and upcoming days I've gotta finish a project for school. So I think you can expect a new update from my shadow hogwarts in maybe this weekend and else the weekend after...
And maybe kroepoe sees a chance to map a bit further in the weekend :).
btw, I uploaded a vid: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUNnaNU4fQI[/url]
[QUOTE=Red Heavy;16755232]And there's no Skybox, I know it's from Hammer. I don't know about everybody else, but when I'm mapping, even for simple geometry, I often compile just to look around and make sure it looks nice, so I usually have a skybox very early on.[/QUOTE]
How is that dumb? It makes perfect sense.
I simply did not use a skybox, because I was planning to make pictures from diffrent angles, and merging them in one picture.. With the background beeing black it was very simple to manage.
If I had a sky, it would look all weird..

Thanks for answering my question on youtube. XD
Lolz :P, I just started firefox and it auto loaded facepunch and the youtube tab from previous time. And I saw the same comment on youtube as on facepunch :P.
Epic Bump, :buddy:
Is this map any closer to being made ?
