LOL that almost looked like an artistic photoshop.
Have you tried updating your graphics card drivers?
Depending on graphics card:

It looks almost as if you pimped out another map. I can't remember the name of that map though. Nice looking map. You get a cookie.
My graphics card is a nVidia 7900 and is fine, but the problems still remain.
1) There is no sky. it just fils up with strange colours.
2) Some rocks have errors over them.
3) The admin room teleports me to a random island just of the coast of the volcano.
i need help
The skybox needed is in Counter Strike Source. In other words you need the Counter Strike Source game.
The rocks are in Counter Strike Source as well (i think)
If you noclip into the admin room it will teleport you to the other side of the map. You need 2 sets of codes to get in there. Only hypnotoad and the people that helped him know what they are.
EDIT: I do not know what the codes are, i just remember reading about it in the v3 thread.
It's cool!!

any suggestions?
i really enjoyed v2 of this map and would love for you to help.[/QUOTE]
Well, normally you would actually need the door codes for the admin room. But seeing as I never got it working, you will not be able to go into it. Granted, it is pretty fun to open the door for people that are trying to find the code, and watch them go, "what the fuck."
As for the errors, it is either because you are using garrysmod 9, or that you do not have CS:S.
[b]Edit:[/b]
If the palm tree trunks are not showing up, it is because you do have CS:S.
Oh boy.
I do have CS:S, but I'm experiencing major hall-of-mirrors. The sky is going crazy, and a bunch of textures (like the rafters of the buildings) are missing.
I'll try restarting my computer... it's been acting a bit funky.
[b]EDIT:[/b] Aha. Some update to CS:S made Gmod stop recognizing it. Opening CS:S once sorted the problem out. That missing skybox texture sure made for a trippy experience though.
Very nice map, by the way. I thought v2 was excellent, and the trees have really added a lot to the experience. Bravo!
That is much epicness.
It must be damn illegal.
Ignore this post. Misread something.

no, i have not. Valve have told me several times, ill do it now
Smart of you to block the admin room with trigger_hurts lol, also blocking the teleporter to get thing.
:D
Any possible way you'd release the keypad code...?
lol
No, If I do that, then it takes all the fun out of tricking people into he teleporter.

[QUOTE=Laxsith]Looks awesome!
Any chance you can make a .zip file for us winzip users?
Don't tell me to download winRAR because trial version is over for me.
:([/QUOTE]
I have the trial version of winrar, I have been running it for 3 years. It says the trial version has ran out, but it still keeps working.
All i can say is BRAVO! I LOVE IT! I LOVE YOU!(not in a gay way)

i do not have Counter strike! i have Day of Defeat!.(aww! my spelling sucks!)
Valve should just include CS with half life 2
Always.
It would make everything easier.

that too.
I actually barely play CS, it's just there for content, mapping purposes and the occasional playing
This map shall go down in the history of facepunch as the best outdoor map ever created in the hallowed forums of facepunch.
This map has a whole lot of win.
We just need a pirate RP game mode.
It would be fun to have vehicle pirate ships with turrets (seperate cannons for separate players)
Now add some DirectX 10, and then we have a crysis clone!
Well done!
too bad I won't be able to use DX10, There is too much crap to deal with if you get vista... *cough* *DRM*
Need more trees!
This map is great no...Epic!

Well back when it came out I got that pack that had HL2 and CSS and some other things, and it definitely was easier!
So wait. The admin room is just a trap that you use to mess with people on your server? :mad:
But anyway, playing it right now. It's awesome!
[b]Edit:[/b]
I found out how to get into the room without being teleported to that little hill!
I will only say one thing. [b]The teleporter in the green room actually goes somewhere. [/b] [spoiler]Can't say where though...[/spoiler]

Yeah, it goes to a small room under the map. The room is rather pointless though because it's way too small to build anything of significance in it.
Yeah, seeing As I never got the entrance working properly, I never really bother adding anything to the admin room.
Wow, amazing, very very nice. lol has the basic design of an old map of mine.
ps: the only thing I think could be improved is the steam on the volcano just make the particles around 300 and only have a few of them.
Hi, I read that your compile time takes over 4 hours even on fast mode?
I am a fellow mapper, and I know a little trick that may help you.
When making large outdoor areas, you can cut down your compile time dramatically by selecting the entire map in the 3d view, clicking on the texture application tool, and raising the lightmap scale to at least 64. The higher you raise this, the faster your map will compile and the worse shadows will look when inside indoor type areas, but your map is 98% outdoors.
I made a map with a large outdoor area such as yours, and doing this has cut my compile time from around a half hour to 3 minutes.
Also wanted to know if you compiled this with fast or full before you released? If you can't do a full, I will gladly compile the map for you with my Core 2 Quad Extreme. (Hammer compile tools are fully multi core enabled.)
