No displacements for the road

Arch, slice, vertex endlessly. Twists, banks, helix, loops, all four combined, whatever you want
And you made this hungover?

You know what's the most advanced thing I've made?
A cave made out of displacements
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;43741847]And you made this hungover?[/QUOTE]
You would wonder to what the human mind is capable while influenced...
In other words, usually doing anything in the morning, while feeling hungover, feels so "fluid" that you don't wanna stop. Atleast that's for me, but I must say it never led to such an awesome result.

So I have been working on something. It's for a much larger project I have been working on periodically. I forgot to add the awning over the drive thru. That will come later. Interior isn't done either.

Looking great, I love the kind of Home Counties vibe you have going on. Where did you find those British road textures?

are they on grid though? I've made a road completely out of brushes, wasn't as complex though.

I made them from scratch in Paint.net and plan to release some day.

They are on-grid to 2 units. I never work on single unit grid, although theoretically it's fine; just preference
Anyone knows how to get source SDK working? it always gives me a plethora of error messages and i have tried googling the error messages, but the fixes propsed doesnt work.
I get some weird "scheme file" thing and the map view is all fucked up

Don't use Source SDK from the tools menu anymore. You have to go to the directory of the game you're mapping for (use the Half-Life 2 directory for EP1 and EP2, to use them select them in the prompt), go into the bin file and open hammer.exe. It'll open a prompt asking you what game you want to map for.

That is so weird, Where I live there is a KFC right next to a Taco Bell and these look exactly like them.
I think that's kinda the point.
Started to get serious on the new map now.

I have the feeling though something is missing here. I would greatly appreciate some criticism.

I feel like your lights are giving off to much light on the ceiling.
If you look at some real ones they do give off some but not a whole lot

Oh, yes I forgot about that, I'll try if decreasing the light_spot angles will do

Your lighting is very yellow. Seems to me that the lighting should be white. If you want to keep the lights yellow, I would change the shade of yellow to be more subtle.

What he's saying is that it's weird to see something that you've regularly seen a lot in your own personal life inside a Garry's Mod map that someone else made.
Hell, if someone made an exact replica of my neighborhood or one of the strip malls next to my neighborhood, I would've found it pretty neat.

I get the feeling the HL2 textures wont do it here, anyone know any good texture packs?
Also should i make the glass panorama on the front of the house not poke out as much as it does?

will add with other new ones to my maps thread when I get enough for update.

Talk of a map replicated from your street for example can easily be done with reference to Google street view, most of the roads are covered so you can make towns exactly the same if you wanted. My idea is I could screenshot a portion of a city, convert it to vtf and texture the floor with it and work the geometry over it ensuring that I get the proportions correct, of course a whole city to scale (e.g. New York) would be impossible within hammer but I suppose it would be possible to scale it down to get it all in - thats something for the future anyway and I think someones beat me to it.
[QUOTE=Ntag;43693044]Good idea! I'll get right on that tomorrow.
Shit, I don't want to spam pictures of the city but I don't really have anything else for pageking!

Then like this

Trains can't handle slope like that.
Unless you make it a rack railway or add winch system.

Yeah, that's why i make a new one. Will look way better too.

I got back at it.
So just to list where I'm at;
The ships sail.
You can drive them.
The cannons work.
The cannonballs destroy bits of other ships.
The cannonballs also destroy people.
The cannons destroy people if you retardedly stand behind them.
The swivels work (depending on how you define "work")
The carronades for the topdeck are almost working.
The boats can be customised before the round begins. Choice of armaments and such. Planned, partly implemented, all working.
The ships can be disabled and sunk.
Guns can be shot out by other guns.
To list where I could really use a helping hand (or better still somebody to just do it for me):
Smoke for cannons. -Big issue, I can't get any smoke or steam in source looking right.
Lua - if anybody wants to contribute I'm pretty close to a playable beta and a gamemode and/or some musket/cutlass sweps would be glorious.
Double sided texture - I did it once before. I need it for the sails, how do I do this? I forgot.
Past that, any critique on design is welcome, excluding the rear window which is already scheduled to be redone. In advance, telling me I need to add a longboat on the place reserved for the longboat or add gold shiny stuff to the back is useless - it's going to get done. Focus on critiquing what has been done, if you'll offer the much appreciated critique. ;)
