[QUOTE]Quacy10 – 23rd January 2011 Did you use Source SDK to build Evocity???[/QUOTE] :what: [editline]6th March 2011[/editline] Also, i've noticed a lot of places the interviewer tries a load of forced humour, it makes the article shittier than it actually is.
IT'S SO BLUE AND CRAPPY AND SHITTY, PLEASE GET IT OUT, MY EYE'S ARE BURNING!!! /caps.
I don't really get why you started talking about Facepunch politics. Seems out of place. Also tone down your theme a bit, the header gives me a headache.
I really don't understand why people think sgt. sgt. is a good mapper - his maps are all right, sure they're huge but that's about it when it comes to his maps. If you want a real mapper you want to interview Phone-Booth, Oskutin, Lamarr, Deadchicken, Firegod225 + Terrenteller(those two know a shit-tonne about Source SDK)
Evocity2? That laggy map which forces me to change my graphic settings to low? :colbert:
[quote] An interview with the creator of, arguably, the most well known map in all of Garry’s Mod. (if you don’t include gm_flatgrass and gm_construct)[/quote]What about freespace :frown:
[QUOTE=jeimizu;28459594]What about freespace :frown:[/QUOTE] Evocity isn't even a well known map IMO. downtown dominates all

Sgt has made some cool maps. In particular i liked his one derelict building map (forget the name - but it was well done). In my mind the best mapper is hands down Hazard24 - if you haven't seen rp_apocalypse then you're missing out. Also lol @ that gold member comment in the article. Being a gold member has zero merit.
He has the biggest ego out of all of the mappers I know.

[editline]6th March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Jo The Shmo;28460470]He has the biggest ego out of all of the mappers I know.[/QUOTE] This is so true it hurts.
[quote]I currently work at EPCOT in Walt Disney World as a merchandise “cast member.”[/quote] Fuck yeah EPCOT.

That was about 4-5 months ago and I yet have to see it... So fuck this site basically.
[QUOTE=YoMother;28459046]Such as driving a box truck 2-4 days a week. Part of which requires me to literally drive it through the park. Prof: Oh god, that job isn’t what I think it is is it? I don't understand this[/QUOTE] Basically, he said that he works at Disneyland and has to wear a costume. :) [QUOTE=LuckyLuke;28459051]:what: [editline]6th March 2011[/editline] Also, i've noticed a lot of places the interviewer tries a load of forced humour, it makes the article shittier than it actually is.[/QUOTE] It was a lot harder than I though it would be. Less attempted humour next time me thinks. [QUOTE=icemaz;28459319]I don't really get why you started talking about Facepunch politics. Seems out of place. [/QUOTE] Seemed relevant at the time, what with me talking about the community and such. I didn't want the interview to just be about melons and mapping; I sorta wanted you guys to get an idea of how the interviewed feels about various Gmod related stuff. Anyway, point taken - I might leave it out next time. [QUOTE=Lamarr;28460610]They actually kept annoying me for an interview and when we actually got to it and made one,I was told it'd be up the next day. That was about 3-4 months ago and I yet have to see it... So fuck this site basically.[/QUOTE] This is my first interview for Gnightmare, and I think (in my rather biased opinion :D) that the guys set up interviews and write articles mean well. A lot of work goes into making these, but I can understand your frustration at having to go through a whole interview and then find that it's not posted. I shall be passing this on.

[QUOTE=viperfan7;28463086]thats why its garry's nightmare :P[/QUOTE] Too bad it's everyone's nightmare.

He was not very reliable, I almost told him to do the Interview for 3 weeks. After that point he was gone and I never heard about him again. I am sorry that you took place in an interview for nothing, but the log of it never reached the site. [QUOTE=viperfan7;28463086]thats why its garry's nightmare :P[/QUOTE] I actually asked about the theme before. People said it is fine. I will rework it again and then it will hopefully be better for everyone.
At first I didn't understand what people were talking about the whole blue thing, then I scrolled up a few times, and witnessed the eye-raping shade of blues clusterfucked into a logo. I recoiled at the sight and blinked twice.
terrible everything
Terrible site is terrible. This is truly Garry's nightmare. Oh wait everyone's :smug:

You are misinformed. The mappers you have listed don't map what I do. They make small more detailed maps. Unfortunately with source you have to spread detail out more as the map gets larger. Mainly this comes in for geometry. I try to counter with models and displacements but it only goes so far before you exhaust all available resources. My maps also don't drop to 4fps when looking at a waterfall. [QUOTE=xeonmuffin;28459904]Evocity isn't even a well known map IMO. downtown dominates all[/QUOTE] Evocityv2d has had over a half million downloads from the download sites where I keep track(garrysmod.org{unfortunately removed after reaching over 400,000 dowloads}, filefront, fpsbanana, and megaupload). At the current time it comes in 4th on the stats page at garrysmod.com with 41 server and v17x the new-ish one has 23 going. Downtown and evocity flip flop depending on the time of day on number of players and number of servers. Evocity generally has a higher player-to-server ratio than downtown. I understand that certain people don't like evocity but that's fine. There are other RP maps out there. From garrysmod.com Map Name / Gamemode/ Servers/ Players 3 rp_downtown_v2 / DarkRP 2.4.1/ 76 / 258 4 rp_evocity_v2d/ DarkRP 2.4.1/ 41 / 232 [QUOTE=Jo The Shmo;28460470]He has the biggest ego out of all of the mappers I know.[/QUOTE] I do not. I hardly have one at all. If you think I do I would like some proof of it. Also I don't know you therefore you don't know me.

Here's my reasons: You have a big ego, your an arse and I think I speak for the whole of facepunch: Get out.
Is that computer I sent you still working :colbert:
[QUOTE=jordguitar;28481112]Is that computer I sent you still working :colbert:[/QUOTE] Yeah still use it daily. Appreciate it every day. Thanks again man.
[QUOTE=Sgt.Sgt;28481217]Yeah still use it daily. Appreciate it every day. Thanks again man.[/QUOTE] :love:
[QUOTE=ppV;28481070]I don't like you.[/QUOTE] Stop trolling. If you are going to say something so stupid back it up with reasons.
[QUOTE=Sgt.Sgt;28481576]Stop trolling. If you are going to say something so stupid back it up with reasons.[/QUOTE] Atleast you can still credit people :3:
[QUOTE=Sgt.Sgt;28481576]Stop trolling. If you are going to say something so stupid back it up with reasons.[/QUOTE] The only time I've seen you act unreasonable was a year or so ago when you accused someone of stealing when they made a similar looking tunnel.
[QUOTE=EliteGuy;28481865]The only time I've seen you act unreasonable was a year or so ago when you [B]accused someone of stealing when they made a similar looking tunnel.[/B][/QUOTE] Oh wow...
[QUOTE=Sgt.Sgt;28479030] I do not. I hardly have one at all. If you think I do I would like some proof of it. Also I don't know you therefore you don't know me.[/QUOTE] Remember when you released that one version of evocity that had an entity that crashed the game if you tried to play it on any server except a specific one, then flipped the fuck out when people found a way to get rid of it? Luckily for you I'm pretty sure that thread is gone now
