This is what I have if you got confused by that.
How can I make this work?

Thought I'd post a video this week. Walkthrough of what I have so far after completely redoing my base. Everything you see here is on grid except for two stubborn vertices on the teleporter that are less than a hundredth of a unit off so whatever.
You can also hear my custom ambient_generic in the background.

Yeah the interior base lighting isn't tan, but looking in the code for the map in halo's editing tools and looking at the light decals themselves, I think that was a bug. Anyhow, this makes more sense with the blue light decals that will eventually go there. If people don't like it I'll change it though
I can't believe that base is brushwork dude. coming from someone who's first major gaming and modding experience was combat evolved, seeing it recreated so faithfully is truly amazing. I wish you all the luck on the rest of the map!
I kinda want to shoot myself after the nightmare that is getting all those angles even close to right and on grid, so it means a lot that people appreciate it
My next step involves installing 3ds max and examining a ripped model of the original map so I can get accurate measurements of the hills, since that's where most of the gameplay is going to be. It's all going to be recreated in displacements because I want to figure that out next-- I already found a workaround for my earlier problems with the ground texture, and am working on a better blend texture for the grass (visible in the video but I don't focus on it because it's not exactly great looking)
Gonna post my brushwork when I get home for comments and criticism. I think I was a bit overzealous with the func_detail...

Interestingly I did mean the up-down type of switch but I would give this a shot

Sometimes people just make the different lanes pop in and out of the ground.

Also remember to do some clipping on the frog side.
seems like the kind of thing you'd want to do with a model.
I am making a small tropical island :S

Imagine doing it with a nonsolid animated model + invisible brush entity for the best looking, yet effective switch. Seems overkill but it's an idea.
Working on a competitive defuse map. Its my first time heavily taking gameplay into consideration as I map, its pretty fun.

Started on November 10th.
Gm_Fork has an animated model like that, not sure if it's the right dimensions though.

Are brush-based entity collisions more reliable than vphysics mesh collisions?
[QUOTE=Magman77;46523795]Are brush-based entity collisions more reliable than vphysics mesh collisions?[/QUOTE]
really depends, func_door and func_movelinear have "good enough" collisions. func_tracktrain has issues if it tilts, but if it's flat it has no issues.

Or to be played competitively in CSGO. Plus those func_dustmotes are quite a bit too bright. The brushwork and models are pretty dang good though.

Its just not the same T^T
So, as I nearly finished the foyer, and I'm more or less waiting for my brother to start working on the candlesticks, I'm fine trying to fine-tune the lighting. So far I did everything (except for the chandelier) using Propper.
[T]http://i.imgur.com/yKKe0Kt.jpg[/T][T]http://i.imgur.com/9W8z4Wj.jpg[/T]
Speaking of lighting, it only just occurred to me some of the pillars, especially the ones on the upper landing are too dark since I moved the light entity inside the chandelier, is there a way to solve that problem?

if you seriously miss my artifacts, i didn't dump my old GPU anywhere, it's now collecting dust inside the GTX 750ti's box
Farewell to my life.
Farewell to my home.
This is my last chance for survival.
