I quit my position, don't feel like mapping.

Alright. Sorry for no updates. Been busy with the end of the year school work. But it is all over now. I think I will get back to mapping for another couple of hours.

Can I contribute some models, such as modeling the signage and the giant golf balls at the entrance?

Sure. I would love your help. The more, the better! EDIT: The golfballs were turned into models by me, but the signage would be a great help!

the grass is still black and purple boxes /cry why can i never get hammer to bind to my will

Open the VMT file in Notepad and replace the $basetexture line with this: "$basetexture" "grass/grassfloor0003" Then, extract the grassfloor0003 texture into your materials/grass folder. EDIT: Alright people, update time. Started working on the streets, added a brick wall to the entrance, changed the inside wall texture to a custom one, and connected Adzter's 2 holes.

It should be a requirement that the creator of the hole makes a hole-in-one to verify that it's possible Like Track Mania Nations way of validating maps created, to check if they're actually possible to complete.

That is the problem. I need to make the golfball a bit more slippery because it is kind of stale and rolls very slowly. I also need a club swep that can hit the ball. I can model the SWEP, but I need help animating and scripting it. Those are my 2 weakest areas right now. Just to let people know, hole 9 is also opened up again. I still need 16 and 9 filled up!

Lighting is way to bright, could do with being toned down, its raping the HDR. Grass seems a little to bright still as well, I will include the version I used in my hole when I send you it, its just a re-color of yours so that it matches the canvas more closely, but that's up to you if you wanna use it! Ill take hole 9 also since I finished hole 10, I will send them together when I have finished hole 10. Liking the outside now however its getting there!

I had already made the half-golf ball for the wall before I saw that you had already made it, here it is in-case you're interested. [IMG]http://i318.photobucket.com/albums/mm421/Aigik/Misc%20Source%20Projects/golfball.jpg?t=1275326164[/IMG] I made a very simple 3D text model so the sign above the entrance door can pop a little: [IMG]http://i318.photobucket.com/albums/mm421/Aigik/Misc%20Source%20Projects/sign1.jpg?t=1275326263[/IMG] And I made this sign for inside the store: [IMG]http://i318.photobucket.com/albums/mm421/Aigik/Misc%20Source%20Projects/sign2.jpg?t=1275326294[/IMG] What do you think?

Nice! These should be used!

Dude those are so nice. I would love them! Could you just PM me with some of the models? Could you also make a small model for the balls sign? ================ ANNOUNCEMENT ================ I have decided to let someone else create hole 3. So if you want hole 3, please request in this thread.

[QUOTE=bull04;22286740]Dude those are so nice. I would love them! Could you just PM me with some of the models? Could you also make a small model for the balls sign?[/QUOTE] Like a sign similar to the Golf Clubs sign, but for golf balls?

[QUOTE=Dmarine;22286869]Like a sign similar to the Golf Clubs sign, but for golf balls?[/QUOTE] Yeah. With like maybe a smaller version of that half golf ball. Thanks again for the model help!

i got mine done but my folders for hammer are messed up i need to re install every thing sum time to fix it so the grass did not work for my hammer /cry

It needs to be smoother. Its way too blocky :)

[QUOTE=Silverthing;22319860]It needs to be smoother. Its way too blocky :)[/QUOTE] That's not very specific, you should probably specify what it is exactly that is blocky.

I dont know but i think that would be cool with some logo / text in the golfball :3:

I'll take 3.

Aright Majestic Moose, you get 3.

[QUOTE=Rama214;22326567]** I like that ball, how many polys in it? I dont know but i think that would be cool with some logo / text in the golfball :3:[/QUOTE] It's low poly. All it is is a sphere. But it's normal mapped, giving it that high detail appearance. Anyway, sorry I've been busy today, I'll finish up the second sign tomorrow and send all of the models to you as well.

Thanks Dmarine.

Wow this map looks promising. And the holes you guys made are lookin good! Keep at it.

This is such a good idea, can't wait to play the finished product.

I'm just about finished my hole, just have some questions: 1. What is the size of the holes that you used? I'm currently using 8x8 Hammer Units, but that seems giant when I read your post on the ball height (being 1.3 HU). 2. What texture did you use for the wood? I just want it to look consistent.

I think I used 4x4 with the corners cut off to make a octagon shape: [img_thumb]http://jamiestamm.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/octagon.png[/img_thumb]

Alright, the ball is 1.8 x 1.8 units. So I am guessing the hole should be about 4x4 or bigger. Sharpshooter has the idea. Except, the recommended is 6x6.

I finished my map and PM'd it to bull04. Can't wait to see the finished product. Someone take hole 16, as it's still available afaik.

Alright, since only 3 people have holes finished (Counting Adzter's 2 holes), I am sorry to have no updates to the map. I will try a 3d skybox, but that is all I can promise ATM.
