hi,
this map is going to be a very large map with lots of areas in it for build/DM/RP mainly. i started this a few weeks ago and made slow progress so far , im here looking for feedback and advice.
this map will feature:
boat build
car build
plane build
random build
3 working trains through out the map
a huge scientist base with nuclear storage and let off points (will feature a HL style train map)
combine style base
a few towns/villages dotted around
and more , i am taking suggestions
screen-shots / vids: (ive been making this map in sections so compile will be short)
plane build / airport

I am really liking the 6th picture you put up. The outside seems a bit dull, and blocky... Try changing up the lighting and skybox, and maybe adding some more detail to buildings and roads.

yes it is a bit blocky , i started the airport today but lately ive had hammer crashes constantly so i rushed it a tiny bit at parts.
You should credit me if your going to use my prefabs. (train)
You should give credit to people who make stuff that you use

i took it out a few days ago to replace it with a HL style train im making , but that was a good PFlab.
getting pic of it now

Then update your pictures :smug:
this is it at the moment (im to busy to take shots again)
PIC REMOVED
Looking shmexii.
you just made that.
Eh, would be better if it was larger. You should try making Groom Lake. I would totally download that.
[QUOTE=Roleplay World;18496530]you just made that.[/QUOTE]
if you mean i just made it for that screen shot , no i didn't i made that about 4 days ago but have been getting path_track problems so i left it like that and have been working on other parts of the map.

You made that train?
rp_subtransit train actually :eng101:

You did not make that train Roleplay World nice try thought.
On subject great map i really love it and your ideal of the transit system. I miss the good old days of black mesa themed maps and labs.

I made the train, I put it on fpsbanana.com under Sierra mon, stop following me and flaming your really pissing me off.

Coming into some one's thread and demanding credit for a decent prefab and then claiming that they whipped something up quickly to get out of trouble makes you seem arrogant and selfish.
Regardless, the map looks acceptable. The inside and outside look a bit too blocky for my tastes, but I see a lot of potential with successive iterations.
you need to give credit even if you use something even if only credit
[QUOTE=Jacobg1208;18513634]you need to give credit even if you use something even if only credit[/QUOTE]
I'm sorry, what?
Leave him alone melon.
[QUOTE=melonmonkey;18513761]I'm sorry, what?[/QUOTE]
sorry it cut out the you should give credit even if you only use in the sreenshots
^You, don't make much sense.
Roleplay world guy, it was Black Phoenix who made the trains.
Dont give others credit.
Okay guys back on topic!
Like I said, it looks blocky, Besides that I would probably play on it if you changed the lighting too.

Very nice looking.
I came expecting shit.
It's actually a lot better than I thought it would be. As it's been said before, the outside looks dull and blocky. I credit this to the lighting mainly, use a different skybox. I'd use sky_day01_08 if I were you, or any others.
The borders could be more creative. Cliffs are getting generic. Maybe like other parts of the facility that block the area out, but you can go inside. So like a tall warehouse which you can't get on top of, but you can go inside. If that made any sense, at least. Some cliffs, of course are acceptable, but I just think all the borders being cliffs isn't.
The floor texture on the 7th picture could use some working on, along with the H symbols on the helipads. You could use the one built into Episode 2. The H one, maybe pakrat it?
The walls on the last pic look a bit... Bland. You should throw in some buttresses or something of the like. Maybe even just some decals.
Maybe turn the grass outside into some displacements, or something. Maybe replace the built in water reservoir into a water tower or a few. It seems like it would get irradiated pretty easily. Or just move the water storage into the bunker itself? It would make more sense, so that someone wouldn't have to go outside all the time for water, and it'd be safer.
If you insist on keeping the cliffs on the outside, at least for the wall with the gate, then make some concrete around it. There's already some, but some more could be better.
Eh, that's it.
Edit: Trees look like they could be used better. Or at least less dense.

these are good ideas , but im not good at thinking of ways to show the edge of a map especial with a river in it , i normally wait in-till i get the basic outline of each are before i add detail , props and such. and on pic 7 was very early scientist base , to be honest im thinking if redoing the base and making it look more modern and clean. the water in the airport bit was just some quick thinking i ran out of ideas of what do to , then hammer crashed. and the cliffs have been changed since those pics i only took them to put on my thread at smartzenneger.nl and my website , but i though they looked good so i didnt take anymore.
EDIT: this part of the map is right in the top corner that's why i had the cliffs in the base , because i can build past there.

Oh i see you dug up an old model and uploaded it sorry but know the author who created that model. I have no clue who you are and haven't seen you before i am sure you must annoy a lot people with your lies.
textures repeat way to much
Set the scale to about .85x.85
