[QUOTE=postal;52714941]that's a really great layout there. only suggestion i'd make so far is something like what i mentioned above with the vents shooting you through them really quick: those water tunnels are kinda death traps and I'd avoid ever going in them. if you made them two tunnels on each side, one propelling you to the central pool area and the other propelling you from it, that'd be ace. but ofc i can't say anything for sure till i play it.
what guns are you planning on adding to it? tau and egon?[/QUOTE]
Yeah I can make the pipes blast you through to the center. There's going to be a third pipe that will go to another room that I haven't mapped out yet.
I guess I plan on adding all the guns? It's really just a matter of deciding where to place them.

I'll probably just end up copy+pasting the left room and mirroring it to the right side and edit it up a little bit. Once I add pathways and some basic lighting, I'll fill in the holes and remove the skybox then upload it somewhere I guess.
here's a rough draft version: [url]https://ufile.io/zsyov[/url]
it has basic skybox lighting, shitty spawn placement (one spot actually gets you stuck but i didn't feel like recompiling) and shitty weapon placement.
Feel free to add it to the server if you want, would like feed back on general layout and what not before I decide to texture it.
got my custom map's layout all done, now to just detail it, make it interesting, and add weapons :ok:

i swear i'll continue to work on my HL2DM map, even when i procrastinate in pubg and recently planet coaster and next week in forza 7

Ugh I was afraid of that. I packed the textures into the map so that wouldn't happen but I guess it didn't help.

There's the download link for the wad.

still got a looot of work to do
[QUOTE=Kiwi;52717897]ok
no need for the zip files or downloads for hl1
jcw fixed it for me
just join and hope that i remember to copy everything to fast dl
or die trying
[editline]26th September 2017[/editline]
apparently wads dont like fast dl
download the wad go to [url]https://chie.club/jp_dev.wad[/url] put it in your /valve/ directory blame slayer for all of your fatal errors[/QUOTE]
I'm sry plz forgive me I will make it better tomorrow I promise
we didn't get to really test it out yet but quick first thoughts

could really do with making these cylinders a lil narrower cause right now its just barely enough in the way that you can't walk around them and i kept getting stuck there

these four blank areas would be good spots for some computer stuff like big servers or just big ass (unbreakable) boxes, to help make the center area more interesting to fight in
and yea like i said before could do with having second set of pipes underwater to propel you the other direction. also could do with making the propelling happen a lot sooner in the pipe so you spend less time swimming and more time KILLING
[QUOTE=slayer20;52717955]I'm sry plz forgive me I will make it better tomorrow I promise[/QUOTE]
Either remove the dependency on the wad, or use a .res file to instruct the server to tell clients to download it.
dm_fp_roughdraft.res:
[code]
jp_dev.wad
[/code]
Just an FYI, the game client will never re-download a file it already has, even if the server's file is different. Zip files are probably still the best distribution method for WIP maps.

ty for feedback if you have anything else please let me know. Send me a pm or message on steam for any other ideas or concerns
I already want to change up one area and add a 2nd floor for more height variation as that's a common thing in half life.
[editline]26th September 2017[/editline]
I'll also be sure to remove the dev textures from the map in the next version so no one will have to worry about dowblnloading anything extra but the map
been joining a few public HL1DM servers. the locals still playing this sure are... colorful

gonna keep recording footage and see if i can't put together a big ass montage with this and all the angry spanish people i keep running into. Almost of the people still playing this game are seriously goofy lol
getting there. haven't had a lot of time to map these past two days but now i do so let's get detailing...

Started re-working the map using the previous one as it's base layout.
[t]https://i.imgur.com/23TXNw9.jpg[/t]
Came up with some template hallways so I can easily copy+paste what I need. Not sure if I want to add doors to the hallways or just leave them open yet.

If any of you got any early versions and want any feedback on just yet throw them my way. I'll probably have a few ideas if you're interested since I've played faaaar too many hl DM maps.
Honestly I could finish this map tonight but J.A.C.K. keeps causing my computer to randomly hard lock for some reason.
I literally played a game with that 'ladybug' woman.
She says that she's been playing the game concurrently since it's release. She's gotta be in her 60s
I kinda wanted to add her, she seemed super neat.
In regards to the layout for my new map; it's still a WIP
J.A.C.K. keeps causing my computer to hard lock for some reason, so I didn't get to map as much as I wanted too today. Anyway, have a screenshot.

The area marked in red is going to be a large open area similar to the reactor cores(?) in lambda complex. I also need to add the underground part of the map with the water pipes, which I want to make bigger.
HEY we are playing. JOIN UP
recorded this earlier from when we played on missingno's map

Tau is on the sign in the room with the train, egon is hidden way up top and you need a tau to reach it, and hornet gun is in the bathroom and also in the back of the military truck.
tau and egon are ludicrously overpowered guns so its for the best that there's just one of each and you need a bit of effort to retrieve them

Oops, forgot the hornet gun was in slot 4. I think I'm doing pretty well by getting 2nd/3rd after playing the maps only once.
