Looks a great map but ever 5 minutes it crashes Gmod!
I got an idea for a second map:
after the core blows up, the map changes to a ground map (something like mountain_b6) with the pods crashed and the ship (tiny model in 3d-skybox) on fire in the background
from there, survival rp
and add in some features that the true Lazermaniac would put it in
(like the core self-destruct in the first place!)
i have tested it on some servers
it's a cool idea, but make sure there is no town in it
we tried it on rp_cscdesert and everyone just went to the town and ignored
the crash. it sucked
but PLEASE!!!
at least someone (not nessecerially (Gasp spelling!) Lazer, but someone with some kind of mapping skils) make this map!!!
or just use Mountain_b6, paste in the pods as spawn points and put in the crashed ship
of course, you'll need to ok it with the original mapper!!
(don't ban me for suggesting using someone elses map!)
I like your idea phear, but too bad i am too powerless to do anything about it.
ok, that's 1 off of the list of millions of members here at Facepunch
anyone else?
anyone?
at all?
Good work boss, it's a shame I didn't get to help test on this project... Stupid steam... Well anyways it's a amazing map, it doesn't lag very much on my pc atleast in offline mode so it's fun to build ships and mess around in. The only thing I wasnt thriled about was how the main hangar couldn't be opened from inside which makes it so if you build a ship in it and your playing by yourself there is no way to get it out of the hangar. Even still the map is beautiful. Two thumbs way up!
sure it's fun to run for the pods, but when you're trying to seriously RP, and some dumbfuck runs in, easywelds the things covering the switch, and blows the reactor, it ruins the experience
especially when my game lags horribly while it's doing so.

I like this idea but can you make like on Halo when you come to the crashed ship.That would be not bad.I liked the place on Halo with the crashed ship.:)
Anyone able to help me? everytime i play the map it freezes in 5 minutes!

Your comp sucks?
[QUOTE=Nameless NPC]That's because Lazer Maniac probably forgot to add a texture into the map. I don't think anyone here has the texture except for Lazer Maniac himself.[/QUOTE]
Eh, that's an negative point.
[QUOTE=irt3hnubpie]Your comp sucks?[/QUOTE]
Nope, it hasnt messed up on anything else, and please i want useful feedback not a post that makes you think your hard.
No,tell us your specs.
Hmm where do i put the skybox's? lol must sound like a noob.. I also dont give a shit if i get flamed for that because i just wanna play the damn map!
Are you too stupid or just really stupid to look back one or two pages?
i can not open the section in the hangar with the labels on it for the shieldgenerator etc..
[QUOTE=Dtmech]I like this idea but can you make like on Halo when you come to the crashed ship.That would be not bad.I liked the place on Halo with the crashed ship.:)[/QUOTE]
like as in:
spawn in the crashed escape pod
and go to the crashed ship?
that wouldnt really work too well
(LAG!)
the ship on rp_bahamant (sp?)
already lags alot if you look at it from the outside
(my comp crashes)
but
having just a tiny model of it in the 3d skybox
(makes it look bigger)
would work fine
i did it with a combine_innerwall and just set it on fire

[QUOTE=MatrixZero18]i can not open the section in the hangar with the labels on it for the shieldgenerator etc..[/QUOTE]
ok
just open up the door in the hangar
there, you'll see this big metal thing with blue "fire" in it
this is the furnace
put 10 props in here (move em around a little if they dont disappear)
and the door will open
(a door will close infront of the fire, so you dont have to turn around everytime you put a prop in it)
My god. I spent 5 hours on this map. A map that keeps me that intertained must be pretty damn good. Only one question, how do you work the cannon, it won't let me into the pod.
PS: May Oreo rest in peace.

To get into the pods, the reactor must be blown. I don't think the cannon works. To my limited knowledge that is.
hey guys, the cannon works, (read my read me that I made!) and if you are suffering extreme lag (you probably are!) try removing the camera in the main hangar. you will get a signifigant boost in FPS
Where do I put the skybox?
At this point I think all questions about the skybox should just be ignored.

Only because I like helping..
Extract it to your "Materials" folder.
Hello, I just saw your map "rp_bahamut" and its pretty cool. Good job on that! Anyways I created 2 mirrors: 1 for your map and 1 for the skybox.
RP_bahamut map mirror = [url]http://www.hl2-hosting.net/download.php?view.19[/url]
And the skybox mirror = [url]http://www.hl2-hosting.net/download.php?view.20[/url]
I added these because I saw alot of people that couldn't use rapidshare.
Thanks.
If I used the link in the first post, do i still need to download the skybox?
are there any plans to optomize this?
I'm having trouble with missing textures and a missing skybox. I've done all I could do, but I still don't have either. Can anyone help?
