[deathmog]

I agree, perhaps have the highway go into a dead-end "tunnel" or some other way to "end" it, and make a side road lead to the building?

[QUOTE=AeonCastle;46373228]man the worst thing is completely misjudging the scale of an area and then needing to go back and fix a bunch of shit[/QUOTE]

no joke, I have redone my bloodgulch bases 5 times because of this. It's a pain in the ass because I keep forgetting whether I'm preserving size accuracy or gameplay accuracy (The master chief is 7ft tall and has a camera position on the top of his helmet(WTF BUNGIE)-- Source playermodels have a height of 6ft and a camera positioned at chest level (4.5ft or so) making Forerunner structures look comically huge as FUCK)

The 6th time was because it turns out you can't retain perfect angles AND keep the entire thing to the grid. Everything's fixed now (almost...), but I had to literally redo the ENTIRE base. It's now a few units off, but compiling takes a lot less time, and there are significantly fewer glitches. I also built the entire thing out of nodraw so I could only skin visible surfaces. I'm learning! Also this is why I don't have an update this week. It'd look like I was going backwards if I posted pictures. Lame.

Now if only I could get a decent teleporter effect. Turns out I can't stick a camera in there, CS:GO doesn't have that, and the fix is kludgy to say the least

edit: Looking at my maps folder...I have around 30 different iterations of this fucking base.

Toss some sort of physics object in there, and you've got the basis for a nice soccer mode.

I know what I'm going to do with my arena now. (Though really I should probably just make something new, since everything outside the rink is wasted.)

It's a shame however, because the video that got popular yesterday isn't giving much credit to Lifeless for his map for GMTower's Source Karts.

[video=youtube;8XhQuXg9C2o]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XhQuXg9C2o[/video]

and now today he's re-releasing Lifeless' map with his own reskinned textures..

[Seba]

I commented asking if the video author asked Lifeless for permission to use the map, but I doubt I'll get a reply. Someone should tell Lifeless about this (if he doesn't already know).

Lifeless is the one who brought it up to me. We managed to get him credit on the gamebanana post but I feel like the guy is giving more credit to himself than he deserves.

Working on my fallout 3 themed roleplay map. I have added tons of new stuff like several small towns, caves, power stations and more. Will add a few more caves and maybe another vault.

Hopefully it will be a good map for the roleplay community.

Have it be like KOTH or something outside the rink, with the KOTH above the rink maybe? Then, when one team wins, have them teleport inside the rink. (otherwise it's a kill, or invisible walls?)

That way everything outside isn't wasted.

[Idolon]

Made a complete track! First team to 40 laps wins.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JprVXoVJmSY[/media]

[Magman77]

doesn't 40 laps seem a bit excessive? :v:

[Idolon]

Not when laps are shared through the entire team. A team of 10 just needs 4 laps per player, which could be done in under two minutes.

[PortalGod]

first team to 40, not first person

There's still a lot of stuff that need to be removed as the heavy cant fit through doors made for CS/HL2 players

A thing I'll do is If i don't have actual values to convert/use I'll open the game up, and measure the distance in seconds.

In this instance, I'd open up bloodgulch in Halo Trial(Cuz it's free), get on the roof of the building, and walk edge to edge, counting how long it takes. I'll make the basic shape (in this instance and octagon), and do the resize it til I get it right. If possible, I'll move the size to the nearest Base 2 size.

The map would pretty much be proportionate when you made it in source. Since it's such a large map, without a lot of easily measurable distance, You'd have to do a lot by eye, but the method still works in most scenaios.

[QUOTE=laserpanda;46382686]There's still a lot of stuff that need to be removed as the heavy cant fit through doors made for CS/HL2 players[/QUOTE]At the very least, a map like this would be useful for posers/video makers - there's not a lot of GOOD looking stadiums out there.

What freaks me out about this map is that it almost looks like a screenshot from Fallout 3. You really did a good job.

Still very rough, but I've been doing rough outlines of buildings without much detail for now. Once I get everything laid out how I want it, then the detail happens.

Originally the light grey building on the left side was going to be a general store, but something doesn't feel...right. Ideas?

[IMG]http://i.gyazo.com/742b163e64fb96311eb5c1f68b69bfa9.png[/IMG]
I definitely need to make the "ledge" on top bigger, lots of details are still needed for this one. Even then, I still can't figure out if I should make it the general store or not :v:

Edit:
Did a quick compile, but forgot to make certain things not "nodraw" :v:
And I did quick and shitty environment lighting with no lighting inside the buildings. Looks like shit for now, i'll take a few better pictures after I fix those issues.

Edit:
Some more pictures!
Also made the Saloon. Lots of detail I need to do on everything still.

Just realized I have to add railings to the saloon stairs too. I also need to get some variety going.
Fuck, sorry for the double post.
