Could you add me on steam / discord? I have a few questions. Steam Community Jabbers#0223 Thanks
God this thread reminds me of when I started to make a train for a map like this but I ended up dumping it due to well, ``lack of motivation``. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/144681/75ff20ca-51a4-4cbb-89ef-ce19c1f03b2b/3dsmax_27-05-18_09-34PM.png https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/144681/668c46ef-d2db-4e0b-9f3d-ddd12710fa43/3dsmax_27-05-18_11-30PM.png If anybody is familiar with the liverpool line of trains, this is it, as accurate as you could have goten the outside shell anyways.
You can't do either for now, but great job with your map. If you need someone to help with lightmaps, I'm your man.
Brilliant stuff! Sadly that does seem to be the problem with projects like this - either you don't have the necessary technical skills (me) or you lose your motivation (also me). Will a project of this nature come about again where both factors are absent? Who knows.
@TikwidToo I'm on Steam Community if you're still interested in sharing any of the assets - I too suffer from the motivation problem but I pass through the real life Barbican a lot so at least it's easy to get real world references
Assets you say? https://mega.nz/#!PeIF2aAA!Whg91JXHOostrCYEEWp1lZARvD2bIaz6CXlWvG8nrlM (I haven't used MEGA or uploaded asset packs like this in a long time, so let me know if any of them aren't working. Do me proud.)
looks good so far keep up the good work
Hi, You guys want This? I have C-stock coming along too. or PM me for source model if u want the doors separated. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/107248/3a19ed04-0245-44ef-b6f3-96022c62528b/image.png https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/107248/45fab09a-e330-428f-b5ed-5a580b91da53/image.png https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/107248/8d2122bd-c1e0-4a32-9c10-da65ee9a8241/image.png https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/107248/48bfe28b-b9a2-4805-99cc-d446a1c97b13/image.png
The project is currently not in development, it may or may not be resumed. Tikwid would update the thread but she doesn't have access to her old account. Your models can still be released though, and if we decide to resume this map I'll PM you.
Any updates on this?
Very VERY VEEEEEEEEEEERY COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL MAP
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU I still don't have any plans to resume development on this particular map, but it would be amazing to see those models get a public release for GMod/SFM. There's a real lack of London content for Source, and assets as realistic and true-to-life as those could be a real boon to the community. (Who knows, maybe one day they'll inspire a London-based offshoot of Metrosoi.....)
Hey, this map looks insane and I wouldn't understand why you would stop a project so far in with all the effort you've put in, there are hardly any UK maps on gmod it would be awesome to see this continued, you got any plans?
I know there seems to be a lot of demand for me to finish this behemoth, but the thing is - having been through so much of the mapmaking process during its three years of development - I've realised I'm maybe not the person who should be making a map of this specific nature. I have an eye for London's visuals and aesthetics, sure, but I've still got a long way to go in terms of layouts, optimisation, an understanding of roleplay gameplay, etc (not to mention I can't model - the lack of custom models has absolutely been the number one hurdle that's held me back for British mapping in Source). So maybe I'll turn my focus more towards smaller maps focused purely on aesthetics, those where I can take advantage of my own strengths and weaknesses to make something that has more of a chance of getting released (and I've already got an idea for one of those already). So I dunno. I'd definitely love to see more British maps and assets for GMod/HL2, and I'd still enjoy getting involved in making those, but perhaps the RP_London of this thread isn't the way forward.
Well model wise you can use temp models. Then work on the actual maps and replace the temp models with custom ones once you find a way to get your hands on some. If there is nobody to make them then im sure there are a few somewhat decent models online.
hey im a mapper myself, and ive made maps of real locatins so can anyone give me the files of the map that i can use for hammer cause i want to help out, please and thank you.
@Tikwid can you send me a map download cause i wanna help to make the map please i live england so can i help to make the map cause i have some ideas.
You live in England? https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/108619/ac095f94-4335-4ab2-a732-3c74ae25f155/image.png
@brushtool no i dont but i love the culture in it
Tell you what, he included his textures in a picture he uploaded. If you are a mapper as you've said: then you would probably be able to recreate it. Tikwid never got past the early stages anyway; you'ld just be getting an unfinished map
You know what? This thread getting bumped all the time can be frustrating, but I'll make an exception for today. Absolutely incredible. Pretty much true (although you missed out the "s" in front of "he") - anybody interested in carrying the torch would be far better off making their own interpretation of a Garry's Mod London, rather than tryfurthering my particular vision with unfinished maps and cobbled-together assets.
well currently im working on a map right now but ill try that
@TikwidToo are you @Tikwid but in a different account, sorry if im stupid im just cerious.
My old discord account got deleted. Need to talk to you again (Jabbers#4680) on discord. Thanks
When are you planning to release it?
One final RP_London update before this awful website disappears for good: I've handed the map over to another team to finish, but will still be involved in its development. Keep an eye out over on the TF2Maps.net forums and Discord for updates on the TF2 London community asset pack which I'm leading development of. Peace out y'all
