You shuld do like its on the ground to start then you can sink it or activate it to go out to space =D Then alot of ships people build can attack! it whuld be awesome to see some giant capital ships and some fighters attack atlantis =)
Brilliant work so far :) Cant wait to see inside
-snip- I read the intro wrong
[QUOTE=MoonHeaven;18064002]Ok, I know iv been on an extended brake but I didn't think Spacebuild maps now include interiors of Atlantis. Now before someone throws a fit here, I'm not saying that I'm not looking forward to this. Its not Spacebuild is all I'm saying and am confused why its tagged sb. I thought when i clicked it that it was a collection of planets in the Pegasus Galaxy not a simple map of Atlantis. 2nd. If anyone is stupid enough to think that any of that other then the interior schematic the map I laugh. What you are showing people is nothing more then screen shots from the TV show Stargate Atlantis. theres nothing to show any level of detail or work YOU have completed and while I do hope it turns out well I'm also not an Idiot. Show some actual work and perhaps my tune will change on this map.[/QUOTE] I started this thread to collect detailed screenshots of parts of the city so I could replicated it in Hammer - so far it's been hugely useful, especially the fonix232's contributions. Most of the images here are screenshots from the show, yes, but some are of the map - the in-game shots should be easy to spot. It's a Spacebuild 3 map as it has atmospheres set up correctly - if you go outside the shield with SB3 installed you will begin to lose oxygen and there is no gravity. Here's where I am up to right now - I think I've got most of the external geometry of the tower right and now have 12 of the surrounding buildings in (the work of mattster.t) and I've just started putting some stuff in the gate room. Later I plan to add at least one ship to explore and maybe a small asteroid field with a few hollow ones for building bases onto. Most of the textures will need to be replaced with custom ones later and [i]please remember that this is an early work in progress.[/i] [b]Download Link: sb_atlantis beta 8e[/b] [url]http://upload.bunglist.com/maps/sb_atlantis_b08e.zip[/url]
It might be just me but the Jumper Bay door is too small for the actual jumper modeled by votekick. Any chance this can be changed? Very nicely otherwise. Already love the automatic doors. :v:
[QUOTE=Marlamin;18064423]It might be just me but the Jumper Bay door is too small for the actual jumper modeled by votekick. Any chance this can be changed? Very nicely otherwise. Already love the automatic doors. :v:[/QUOTE] I haven't actually tried votekick's jumper in there yet and yeah it's easy to change the size of the doors, a 2 minute job, so as soon as I've tried the jumper in there I'll resize accordingly.
Looks awesome ! :D
there was a stargate atlantis map somewhere, it had a lot of atlantis textures & props
[QUOTE=Anthracite;18065179]there was a stargate atlantis map somewhere, it had a lot of atlantis textures & props[/QUOTE] You got a link?
you mean other than the one I already posted?
[QUOTE=Mastercalvin;18068358]you mean other than the one I already posted?[/QUOTE] Sorry, I didn't notice that was you until you said :P Had a look at that map and the gate room looks pretty good. A couple of the textures are also good, like the ancient writing for the front of the stairs in the gateroom. From one of the textures I found, the mapper's name is [SylloC} Venin, so credit to him for the ancient writing material on the stairs. Although I'll try to contact him to ask permission, I'll probably make my own later anyway. Thanks for the map link!
I think the jumper bay should be a little taller. and you should add manual control for the jumper bay doors.
[QUOTE=Iziraider;18077790]I think the jumper bay should be a little taller. and you should add manual control for the jumper bay doors.[/QUOTE] Yep, I agree about the jumper bay, I just tried votekick's jumper (from Ronon's 2.5/3 Jumper addon) and it fits but only just. I've resized the doors and will increase the height of that room by probably 50-100% depending on how it changes the exterior. I will add manual controls for anything automatic once I begin adding consoles. I still need to try a "real" atlantis stargate in there but I can't seem to get a working copy of the Stargate addon at the moment, all SVNs I can find and Glua.net are down. [u]Request:[/u] If anyone has the time would they mind zipping up the (rev 44) atlantis stargate model and materials so I can try it in there? (I'd rather not bother Avon with this on the run-up to rev 45). I won't need the lua, just the model for sizing (don't even [i]really[/i] need the materials). Just PM me and I can give you some ftp details to upload it or do it another way. If this is too much hassle, could someone take some screenshots with the gate laid out with PHX props so I can get a size idea? Guessing from the jumper's size, my place-holder gate seems to be roughly right if a tiny bit small. [u]Progress Update:[/u] * Resized and retextured jumper bay doors * More texturing work, two textures from [SylloC] Venin's atlantis map (sent email asking for permission but will probably re-do anyway) * 6 more buildings added, sail-like building (in first TV show screenshot on first post) redesigned * lighting tweaks * shield texture with less flickering (will probably reduce alpha when making custom textures later)

I have got the zip file, do you want me to see if i can upload it?
[QUOTE=aaron_newman;18079219]I have got the zip file, do you want me to see if i can upload it?[/QUOTE] Yeah, if you could it would be helpful! Is it just the gates? (if it's the whole pack it will be about 100MB and will take ages) PM me of you want some ftp details to upload to, or just upload it to a free file-hosting (not gmod.org) service and PM me a link, thanks!
I have the complete pack, is it just the gates you are looking for because i can see if i can find the specific files.
[QUOTE=aaron_newman;18079267]I have the complete pack, is it just the gates you are looking for because i can see if i can find the specific files.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I only really need the Atlantis gates from the models folder, and the matching materials from the materials/models folder. Just those should be around 5-10MB zipped, instead of the 100MB of the whole pack. So from the /models folder, the .vtx, .mdl, .phy, .vvd files for the atlantis gate (I can't remember what the model is called) and from the materials/models folder the matching .vmt and .vtf files.
Its slightly bigger than i hoped, I didn't wanna take the wrong stuff out give this a try. [url]http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OPWZ0D24[/url]

You might want to either remove or disable that link so hard-of-thinking folks don't download it looking for the full stargate addon, we don't want to upset Avon :P
:) Yep will do
Oh my god wow! But i noted some slight things oof about it ... The sise of things I'LL POST a pic of what i mean later
Hey man, this map is looking really good. Can I beta test with you?
[QUOTE=Pilotclan9404;18092339]Oh my god wow! But i noted some slight things oof about it ... The sise of things I'LL POST a pic of what i mean later[/QUOTE] I know that some things aren't quite the right scale but I'm busy adjusting stuff now. The gap between the last beta and the next one is mainly cos of scale adjustments e.g. raising the ceiling of the jumper bay. Please do post screenshots of things you find though in case I've missed something. [QUOTE=L-NAESA;18093483]Hey man, this map is looking really good. Can I beta test with you?[/QUOTE] There's a download link on the first post, if you want to help test just download that and put it in your garrysmod/maps folder. Any help is appreciated!

Love Version 4. If you need any help just ask me, I would be more then happy to help. (Not textures though...NEVER ask me for textures...)
Are you building a gate into the map? If so wouldn't it be easier to use a gatespawner? [editline]03:13PM[/editline] Also, the jumper hangar bay doors are too small to take a jumper through( V3 Model ) Other than that very nice
