I'm sure that you have heard of Wuhu Island, which is the main location of certain Wii sports games such as Wii Fit U, Wii Sports Resort and Pilotwings Resort.

This could be a really amazing and beautiful sandbox map for Garry's Mod. It's really huge and there's a LOT to discover. I'm not sure but I think that the Wii Fit U version is the most advanced one.
Also, there's a diving subgame in Wii Fit U:

This could be added as a seperate map, along with a Day/Night/Dawn version of Wuhu Island itself. I'm pretty sure this underwater area also takes place in Wuhu Island.
I'm not sure if Source can handle this, especially because this is an entire island that can be explored without loading times I think. But maybe it's possible oder it may have to be scaled down to fit the llimits of Hammer. BTW, there's already a mod for GTA IV which contains *almost* this lsland.
What do you think?
If I could get the mesh I'd be happy to at least attempt it (might be too big)
Would be totally okay with this as a map.
Here's my contribution, an overhead map of the island:

Kinda looks like it might not fit in Source size wise.
What is the size of the island in feet, meters, etc. Squared?
Perhaps downscaling to fit the limits would work?

Someone on Reddit did some calculations based on screenshots etc.

[quote]This measurement relies on the swimming pool in the Northeast corner of the map being an Olympic size (50 meters) pool. Based on a very rough count, that pool appears to have a side length of about 25 pixels. Using these assumptions, I'm concluding that one pixel on that map is equivalent to approximately 2 meters on the ground. Using another rough estimate, it appears that the island appears to take up around 1/3 of the space of the image, which has a resolution of 2770 x 2898. If we scale each of those pixels up to 2 meters, that gives the square picture an area of 5540 x 5896 meters, or 32.1098 km2 (12.3977 mi2 ). Divide by 3 to count the area only covered by land and you get 10.70327 km2 (4.13255 mi2 ).[/quote]
Also someone modded the entire island into GTA4, would this help anyone?

EDIT: Wuhu island appeared as a stage in SSB4, so gameplay footage would give a good sense of the scale of the island. You can probably assume that Palutena is about the size of a HL2 citizen.

So its.... probable?
