Making some good progress. This area still needs a little more work, but I now have all but one small corner of the grid filled up.

I originally wanted to keep it quite shallow even in the sea, but now I'm thinking there's not much of a point to that. It does look kinda nice from some angles, but I feel that the map would be more enjoyable overall if the water were at a normal height. Should I raise it? Here's how it looks right now: [img_thumb]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/575652270995911022/BB52BBEA48AF995A5B2FA4870FF3E235CFE3F2E4/[/img_thumb]

[QUOTE=03C0;45657295]Should I raise it? Here's how it looks right now: [/QUOTE] Definitely raise it. If you are going to keep it this shallow you would be basically throwing away performance for nothing.

Arguably change the prop bridge too, so that there is more clearance. No doubt someone will want to drive a semi medium size boat, rather than a row boat, into that dock area and beyond.

Yeah, I think this is an improvement.

If you are going to keep it this shallow you would be basically throwing away performance for nothing.[/QUOTE] Right, the reflections are a massive performance killer. I'll probably have to disable them either way. Hopefully I can make it look somewhat acceptable with a cubemap.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/UPqZaAC.jpg[/IMG] What else should I add(I will get a coffee table in there soon, and more pictures)?

[QUOTE=Falkok15;45659666][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/UPqZaAC.jpg[/IMG] What else should I add(I will get a coffee table in there soon, and more pictures)?[/QUOTE]Recess those ceiling lights and maybe add some more filing cabinets or something behind the desk.

[QUOTE=Falkok15;45659666][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/UPqZaAC.jpg[/IMG] What else should I add(I will get a coffee table in there soon, and more pictures)?[/QUOTE] Recess the fluorescent lights into the ceiling like this: [T]http://upl.kittehcat.org/2014-08-11_20-13-16.png[/T] And create a door instead of a bland square hole blasted into the wall, just a note.

Making progress on this. One of the little textures I added on a very lazy night. I also need to fix the fog. [video=youtube;61EX-CzIY6A]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61EX-CzIY6A[/video]

This area is going to be a pain to make interesting. [t]http://i.imgur.com/XSkjHgJ.jpg[/t]

Thanks to a combination of impatience and watching too much TGTTM, I whipped up this buffet steam table last night: [IMG]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/568896871560169563/31569E245AEBC660AE913F7544F763C13237AE0F/[/IMG] (not pictured: black trim under table) It's my first original prefab. Some of you may think it's too blocky, but personally I think it looks okay.

[QUOTE=FlamingBlizza;45660467]those are the worst footsteps I've ever heard[/QUOTE]They were from a Quake addon I had installed. I'm gonna remove them cause I think they're really annoying.

[QUOTE=Shirky;45660241]This area is going to be a pain to make interesting. [t]http://i.imgur.com/XSkjHgJ.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Don't know if a good idea, but maybe some lion sculptures on the fence pillars would look good.

Is this a mansion fence or a cemetery fence.

For those that liked my underground rp map, I have released it on the workshop. Here is a fancy button to the download: [url=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=298847431][img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/34886768/Pictures/WorkshopDownload.jpg[/img][/url]

Hum... It's not much, but I've done a thing. [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/566645071759777440/8ED2E72358B6F4AD77340D1CBD36B748A5371AD2/[/t] [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/566645071759775602/405CCEACAB70022C5DD9B7BC465821F12E613738/[/t] I mean, it's pretty empty right now, and the textures are placeholders, but I'm aiming for something that is at least recognizable... The worst part will be the houses, I think I will do 3/4 different ones, and instance them on the map. Any thing I could change? (Also, I'm taking any advice on which textures to pick)

[QUOTE=PortalGod;45666065]Attack on titan?[/QUOTE] Yeah, I guess I played too much the unity game :v:

[QUOTE=Zelpa;45666167]I'm not sure if you've ever actually roleplayed, you're meant to leave rooms more or less empty so that people can build in them.[/QUOTE] According to the shadows beneath the props, these are prop_physics(_overrides), so the players can just shove them aside and throw them on the streets or the server administrators would remove them.

Here a house: [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/566645071763919759/3FE9087660DC5B548186C4819AFD2EF6B7F1AF9F/[/t] I guess 4 others should be good to have variety, maybe 5.

Looks like I can't compile the map with Final :3 Here's a fullbright one. That's still 100% brushes, it ain't for anything, I just mess around.
