So this can be anything? Can I mount a flamethrower to a makeshift cart and place it in an underground subways system from the year 2033 and infest it with parasites?...
Wait a minute!
Count me in, I'm definitely finishing this one.
According to the rules, is it ok if I make a L4D2 Scavenge/Survival map based on trains & rails?
Alright I think I know what I might do if I find time:
I think I'm gonna remake gm_trainride_v2, but outdoors and with a cooler train. Here's the original:

The train I wanna replicate is the Amtrak Superliner.
Hmmn, might have an idea for this. It might not be much but it's worth a shot.
I'm interested. Count me in (as Highdef), mate.
I'm in, and just to give you guys a bit of an Idea of something similar.

I have some ideas for you guys if you cant think of anything but a train on a rail;
1. A train de-railing.
2. A train de-railing off a bridge.
3. A train exploding.
4. A train running into another train.
5. A rollercoaster.
6. A crashed train.
7. A futuristic train.
8. Two trains racing.

How's the color of the rails for my texture?

I'm thinking it should be a bit darker and saturated. I might also increase the grit levels.
EDIT: Actually, I know: I'll make the sides of the rails darker and more rusted, but make the top clean iron, so it looks like trains have actually been going over the track.
EDIT2: Alright, here's the new one: [url]http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/6331/tracksv.jpg[/url]
the troughs look odd though (The wood going side to side of it)

It'll clip into gravel in the actual map, so it won't matter unless you're noclipping under the ground.
I actually have a train track model if you want it. Admittedly I made it with propper though.
Made a ton of textures yesterday, all bump mapped. My plan so far is:
- 5 days for making textures (walls, floors, ceilings, glass, shingles, blood spatter, whatever I need)
- 1 day to convert to vtf and make the proper vmt files
- 10-15 days for modelling & texture + convert to source said models.
- 2 days for map planning (basic block planning in Hammer)
- Everything else will be detailing, texturing, etc.
Must be nice :( I can't plan to map, it hinders my ability, usually I just wait for the right feeling to come and WAM, just do it all in one day at once.

Yep.
Also the metro 2033 map is allowed.
Count me in for this as well. Was planning to do a train-based map anyway.
Theme is mediocre at best but I will be participating
Me goes in!
I am in as well. I got some ideas to make.

Somebody do a moving-skybox trainride level. :D
You know you want to.
You do it since you are so wanting one.

Disable shadows on that text thingy. It casts a very weird shadow on the wall.
Dang it.
I got L4D2 today and was messing about with hammer with the models and shit and decided to use the L4D models to make a train map but the models don't work.
No one told me that :mad:

Try my thread i posted a few days ago for helping, Coolcorky told me how to fix it.
[url=http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=642683]Or just do this[/url]
A much more easier method is just to copy the pak01_*.vpk files from L4D to a temporary folder and rename them all to pak02_*.vpk, then copy them over to the L4D2 folder and fire up Hammer.
