To all of you who are saying how bad this map is, try mapping yourself. It is very hard work, takes a long time, requires much effort and even more creativity, and all the mapper gets in return for giving his time in effort to the community is the thanks of that community. And here you are saying this map is rushed and laggy and a piece of crap. Why don't you try making a map half as good as this one and see if you change your mind.

Quoted 4 truth.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Might I suggest that you use packrat or some such thing to bspzip the textures?
Is there anyway to go outside without dying? I'd love to take some shot's out there.
i think i'm in love
If you are in godmode you can go outside.
And use the glitchy 02 tanks

I fixed those via Lua for my server. In fact, I fixed pretty much everything via Lua.
I wonder if laser will release a 1.1 or 1.01 of the map with the few missing teaxtures fixed and maybe some of the lua things.
This map is very good, but is too heavy on the hardware for me. Ping is normal but the frames per second are too bad to play this properly. Good work on it though.
This map is very open to mingebaggyness, so I decided to make a quick admin script for your public servers.
[lua]
--Rp_Bahamut by Lazermaniac, admin script by Bradfirj92
--Insert your steamid below, and those of your friends, and define whether or not you want the reactor to be destroyable
--Command: Typing "override_lockdown" in the console will override the bulkhead doors, useful for an RP scenario, or if a mingebag has somhow bypassed the trusted players only part...
reactor_destroyable = "false"
admins = "steam_0_1_lolid, id2herek"
trustedplayers = "steam_0_1_lolid, id2herek"
--===============================================
--Don't touch anything under here unless you know what you are doing!
--===============================================
function anti_reactor_blow(playerid,args)
if reactor_destroyable == "false" then
local anti_blow=_EntitiesFindByName("reactor_shutdown_relay");
for i=1,table.getn(anti_blow) do
_EntRemove(anti_blow[i])
end
else
end
end
HookEvent("eventPlayerInitialSpawn", anti_reactor_blow)
--This bit by Catdaemon, much <3 to him.
function ship_lockdown(playerid,args)
if string.find(admins,_PlayerInfo(playerid,"networkid")) ~= nil then
local bulkheads=_EntitiesFindByName("ship_bulkhead")
for i=1,table.getn(bulkheads) do
_EntFire(bulkheads[i],unlock)
_EntFire(bulkheads[i],toggle)
end
else
end
end
CONCOMMAND("override_lockdown", ship_lockdown)
restrictedpos = { vector3(3843.719971,-79.611336,980.33148),
vector3(3339.701904,3.847844,800.03125),
vector3(3813.154297,0.874230,320.03125) }
function stopIdiots()
for p in restrictedpos do
ents = _EntitiesFindInSphere(restrictedpos[p], 20)
for ent in ents do
if IsPlayerOnline(ents[ent]) then
if string.find(trustedplayers,_PlayerInfo(ents[ent],"networkid")) ~= nil then
--Trusted Player.
else
--Bad person!
_PlayerSilentKill(ents[ent])
_PrintMessage(ents[ent],HUD_PRINTTALK,"Sorry; that area is for trusted members only!")
end
end
end
end
end
--Loads of help with this part from Kalinium, thanks!
AddTimer(0.2,0,stopIdiots,0)
function give_tpacks(playerid)
if string.find(admins,_PlayerInfo(playerid,"networkid")) ~= nil then
for i=1,_MaxPlayers() do
if _PlayerInfo(i,"connected") then
_PlayerGiveSWEP(i,"weapons/rp_bahamut/weapon_thrusterpack.lua")
end
end
end
end
CONCOMMAND("give_tpacks", give_tpacks)

For those who won't bother reading, It stops people not in your trusted list from making ships or accessing the bridge and offers you an option to disable the distruction of the reactor core. In addition you can override all the bulkheads from the console with the command "override_lockdown". Also, admins can you deal out thruster packs with the command give_tpacks.
Now make a way for Admins to spawn the thruster packs and this script will be golden.
(I just said this in the other thread of yours :P)
For all those who can't spawn the cool toys in the hanger.
[code]Down the other end of the hanger is a large blast door.
Open this.
Inside is a large furnace.
Stuff the furnace with props until it is closed.
The hatches will now open.
Have fun...[/code]
Or, If you are in SP, use "ent_fire !picker toggle" on the thing covering the buttons.
I'm sorry about Oreo, and I liked the music that played. What part of HL2 was it in? Anyway, I really like the map, and I think more people should concentrate on looking at the positive aspects of the map and overlooking the minor problems.
How the HECK do i make the lifepod ( the room with 8 or so ) launch?

I believe it was when you get out of ravenholm and you help fight off the combine and someone gets hurt... poor little oreo. :(
Heres a suggestiong for the next release. Make it so that it will still kill you if you go outside, but when you have suit power, it takes it down by like 1 every 2 or 3 seconds. Would be kinda like a space suit that you could recharge. :D
Very cool map! Futuristic and many other things. It can be buggy in places. Over all, it is a new opening for a new type of map.
[QUOTE=techguy]How the HECK do i make the lifepod ( the room with 8 or so ) launch?[/QUOTE]
ANSWERS!!!!! GIVE ME answers...
Again, good but another suggestion: Get rid of the reactor. It's the minges key to ruining the server. Look forward to v2.
Very cool map, i like it alot! But the fps is bad, so bad its driving me crazy.
I think he owned the engine, the map is just too complicated.
It doesn't matter what computer you have, it probably will lagg.
[QUOTE=techguy]ANSWERS!!!!! GIVE ME answers...[/QUOTE]
That's The Cyro Storage! the life pods are in the bridge they open during a meltdown..
I will be honest, I am not too impressed. The idea was great, however many of the ideas were poorly executed. I myself could not do anything of this magnitude but there is no way to know how to improve if everyone is kissing your ass. The map needs to be optimized, that's a given. Also, if you are going to make something look like it is usable, then make it usable. The spawners need to be clearly labelled and need to be easy to use. Other than that the map itself is fine for the most part, there is just such a huge oppurtunity for improvement.

But he missed one big point, the ****ing airlocks! i'm sure its very hard to get the airlocks to work but still, 3 seconds to get back in your ship while the floor is made of wet ice and you can't jump, bloody hell it sucks, especially when the ship is exploding because a mingebag decided to chuck a dynamite in the engine...
AWESOME THE BEST MAP! a bit laggy though you can only play with one other person without it being totally laggy
To the NPC wars comrades! Yaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
I'm gonna press the 5 button untill i break my finger!
This also means 15 thanks!
[QUOTE=Wee_Yak]Again, good but another suggestion: Get rid of the reactor. It's the minges key to ruining the server. Look forward to v2.[/QUOTE]
Actually, I think it's great, if you are so worried then use "ent_fire reactor_shutdown_relay kill" when you first host, or go download my admin script from the lua releases section.
where do i put the skybox folder just in gmod9 directory?
[QUOTE=$!lent]where do i put the skybox folder just in gmod9 directory?[/QUOTE]
For the seven thousand'th time. Gmod9/Materials.
My script updated, allows ship resetting now!
