Gm_Museum - Developers - Facepunch Forum

I had the idea to make a huge museum about 5-8 floors/ In it would be replicas of maps(such as flatgrass etc.) and I haven't came up with anything else. I dedicated the first floor for the replicas. Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth floors are empty. I do have screenshots but the lights happen to be messed up. I don't know how long it might take to fix them. If you guys could give me ideas on things to add that would be great. If it gets well enough I will name it Gm_FacepunchMuseum. When the screenshots are out I could use constructive criticism.

Planets and dinosaurs

An tripod from War of the Servers.

Also... Idea for a floor: gamemodes Each room is themed after a gamemode - room for RP, Spacebuild, Sledbuild, Zombie Killing Gamemode... In each room you have objects from each gamemode and small signs saying what they do, and maybe some pictures. How about that? [B]EDIT:[/B] Post so I can post more ideas.

I think it would be cool if you had all of the floors have a central "room" that they all branched off of. Inside the central room, it would be a 5-story open area where you could put one BIG monument. Something big, that was a huge point in GMod history... Maybe a :v:, or a War of the Servers Tripod, or a giant-orange-box dvd case, etc.

Then we will have separate gamemodes for each room.

Because then you would have to get someone to code all of these gamemodes and such. Let me whip something up in hammer in a bit.

Wait wait. I thought what you meant was walk into a room that had gamemode related items. Sandbox would be like Blastdoor and cinbderblocks. Darkrp would be a shipment create and a consolebox. You know.

[B]The Garry's Mod Museum[/B] [I][I][B]First Floor: Replicas[/B][/I][/I] The big moments from Garrys Mod are here. In this floor you can find replicas of some of the best and most remembered props from GMod, such as a Mingebag, a War of the Servers Tripod, a big GMod symbol, a Tornado and many more (include suggestions here). [I][B] Second Floor: Information[/B][/I] In this floor, you will find informations about our museum: contributions, WIP pictures and much more. Here you can also "Leave your Legacy".

Each room will be themed after a map and will contain some information, props, some words from the creator and a preview. You got the drill, just giving an idea.

You got the drill, just giving an idea.[/QUOTE] You wrote a good detailed explanation now I guess i will. Floor one-Your idea about the Tripod, Mingebag, and Gmodsymbol(+more) was great. You said Tornado are you referring to the map which was never released? (Gm_tornadochase) Floor Two- Credits, Pictures, Models? (Lets sum this up as Custom texture room :P) Floor Three- How will I show the Sweps and addons? Speeches will be in text? Floor Four- You aren't saying get Garry to participate in this map are you? That would slowly fall apart. All and all a good idea. Floor Five- Nothing to question on. I like this idea. Floor 6- I don't make custom models. So I am hoping you didn't assume I did. You are saying to place some well known props from that level into the area and pictures from it? Also quite a bit of Custom Textures. I thank you for writing your suggestion out :D

Here's what I was talking about: [img]http://i28.tinypic.com/13z252h.jpg[/img] Have a big monument on the cylidner in the center. Then each of the levels of the museum would all have this as a center room so every level is built around the big monument in the center.

Good idea :p [editline]10:54PM[/editline] I think I have it ready for screenies. What program is best for them?

I loved Ned's idea. Do I hear a community project? Alright, send the screenies. Me wants.

The map has been worked on for 2 hours atm (So its in WIp stage) Screenies will be coming once I find a good program to use. Any suggestions?

This could be mixed with my Omnimover idea. Like on the floor about GMod History make an Omnimover track through GMod History. Program to take screenies? Fraps, maybe?

Fraps ok. Just a sec. Disregard the "Fraps.com logo when posted.

Nah, no problems. I was thinking that for the third floor we could have something like this: a track that is filled with shell things that takes you into a ride through GMod history, featuring part of the maps from the early GMod builds, pictures of how it was and at the end you see what would be the future of GMod. The ride ends on an stair that takes you back to the rest of the third floor.

At this moment it has 2 floors. Second being empty. Second floor Light isn't working fixing it now.

This museum is turning more into an theme park than an actual museum. Thinking about it, I still wonder why no one made Walt Disney World into GMod yet.

This map is more of a "Garry's Mod History" Disneyland is in the mapping requests forum :D

[QUOTE=Props;17131633]This map is more of a "Garry's Mod History" Disneyland is in the mapping requests forum :D[/QUOTE] Its actually dead... We should get more mappers to do a Disneyland... I had some pretty good ideas, and I am huge fan of Disney parks. So if you want design informations/sounds/soundtracks/musics/ideas for an Disney park map, you can talk with me. 'Know what? Creating a massive post of ideas.

Ill make the center monument and it will be really epic. How tall should it be?

Ehh. Let me post the screenshots of the map. If its good I will keep it. If its bad I will scrap it and make a new one. Uploading time :D 6 pictures is good for this size of map.

[QUOTE=laptopman;17131678]Ill make the center monument and it will be really epic. How tall should it be?[/QUOTE] Should be around... Big. What is it going to be?

Its going to be an epic rotating hologram with names of the makers that fade in and out. But its gonna look really cool, not like a piece of shit haha

I am waiting for a "Make a Dr.Hax! statue PLZ!" Nah. Anyways photos are done. Lets see what you guys think. I really don't know what to think of it. The glass texture could be better.

Where are the screenies? Status: Creating massive post about WDW/DL on Requests.

^That would be great to put on the Mapping section.
