It's rather boring just making carriage after carriage after carriage.

Would peepz mind posting some profile images of different types of carriage?

I'd really appreciate it, so long as it's actually a hammer job and not a model job.

:bravo:

Alright I have made some progress with my map, I have started making a trainstation, as it was before that, I had a track, 2 trains (one crashed), 2 hills and a small forest. I will be uploading pictures later.

[editline]21:10[/editline]

Oh snap, I started the page!

P.S If you like hardstyle, techno, trance that kind of stuff, try NERadio ([url]www.neradio.se[/url]) Its for swedes only, I think. Anyways, I listen to it while mapping, so I just hope it can give you the happiness it gives me :)

I need to fix some broken door entities and a texture in that last one.

Admittedly that last one's not particularly high-res, but it shows what I need to add to the roof nicely.

I spy with my little eye, Class 60 in the Reference shots.

Looks very British :smile:

Britain has better train sheds :smug:

Most of the 100 class sixties in britain are in for long term storage at Toton (Location of my reference shots).

Weird, considering they were only built 20 years ago.

Holy fuck there are an [url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6139991/mapping/Reference%20Shots/DSC01630.JPG]Assing[/url] [url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6139991/mapping/Reference%20Shots/DSC01633.JPG]butt-[/url][url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6139991/mapping/Reference%20Shots/DSC01664.JPG]load[/url] of them there.

This theme is a bit restricting. I think I prefer the contests like the "Vertical" one. You had full reign over the content of your map and were free to create whatever the word made you think of.

[Oskutin]

Good to see some progress.

I would agree.

[quote][IMG]http://www.1337upload.net/files/trains_bullet.png[/IMG]Map must be train themed.[/quote]

How is that restricting? It's a contest about making a train map, you can't just say MAKE A MAP LOL.

[PermabannedGuy]

Which is why I preferred the island contest idea, especially with summer coming up.

[Dj Reflex]

Okay so since the sdk update broke ep2 hammer, I will give you all a choice:
Should I..

1. Wait for a fix (from valve) and then continue working on a trainwreck placed in the woods with hills, rocks and a trainstation.

2. Go make a train-ride in portal w/ small puzzles and cool visuals.

Rate me [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/rating/rainbow.png[/img] for the trainwreck or [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/rating/palette.png[/img] for the Portal train-ride.

[Armageddon104]

Train ride with a wreck! :P

[Dj Reflex]

Im sure there are no train wrecks in the portal facility but Ill see what I can come up with. :3:

[~ZOMG]

Train crashed into a portal test lab. Do it.
