Here is the outcome of a day or so sick. Creeping upon 1200 props this bridge is structurally correct as much as the source engine will allow it to be. I planned to keep on going with this but I could not save it anymore. The server would either crash, or I would RSO. Anyway, this is where I stop.

I do not know if it is worth encoding though. Pictures pretty much explain it all.
wow this is amazing. seriously, i cannot even comprehend how amazing this is.
Damn, that's pretty good.
:cookie: that looks amazing
Damn.. Make me that trestle we talked about :P Fucking amazing bridge btw.
I was making the trestle, then you're buddy there released the map with a bridge in that spot.
Wow....nice!
Too bad Saratos doesn't show up anymore. He would be all like "LOL FORCEW-"... bah. Totally awesome.
You should build other things too! Like a car or boat.. or bus or tank.. or a building, or a windmill. I'm sure your talent for detail would be well exercised in all of those genres!
^wtf? Anyway, yeah thats what you get for placing all those tiny props piece by piece ; )

Boats are dumb because water is gay in gmod. Tanks you cannot have real tracks, bus would be a consideration. Building are full of dumb people and windmill is a good idea. ^ Rush post, I have a race now.
That is awesome.

these are the sort of things better to make in real life (for whatever reason you may want to). No source engine to worry about, and.. not to say it doesn't rock, but it has no point regardless :3
You know, I wonder if parenting it would make it savable... Have you tried parenting the supports of your bridges and other small details to the part that you drive/walk on?

Civil Engineering -> Structural Engineering -> Bridge Design The point of this was to look pretty and be correct.
I am doing Civil Engineering at university, this looks great.

Fucking phx use vanilla!!!!!!!! [editline]10:13PM[/editline] inside joke, lol

The last bridge I materialized people thought it was part of the map. I will leave the tiles so you can distinguish the awesome.
Let me download it, or materialize it so I can see the new addition to the map. I bet it would be BOOTIFUL :3
structual integrety, where it isnt nessesary :v: I love gmod. Amazing

Better yet, completely invisible.
the combine screen material....
Gah, I found a new place to build a bridge. It will be smaller but more detailed!
