Could it mean we finally have some progress on capture-the-dragonballs mode? Well at least that city map supports the game mode now. Looking good!

There is no CTDB mode, it's an April Fools joke.

Actually, if you look at the Dragonball on the far right, you'll notice that it's more in shadow than the others. But then again, after last year's april fools, I don't care how believable something is.

It's to keep lag at a minimum. The Way HL works, is it processes what it sees. So if you were able to go above the city, because so much small detail was put into it, you'd lag like a beast. So we have to put a lid on it to keep your fps good.

So I don't get in on the old ESF city my fps was good but on this new esf city my fps ar to low (nvm i will sone get a new pc that will owne this one and beat Grega on esf :D)could it be because of the lack of models on the map ? when i got a lot of models on the maps (players , trees ) my fps drops

Thats because the new esf_city has about 10 times the detail the oldone had.

Each model and each face of the actuall map you see affects your FPS. Now if your computer can handle all that infromation its OK. But if it cant than you can have a big FPS drop.

that city map is currently something to look at rather than a serious map. hopefully it gets spaced out later on.

maybe, but as far as any city type maps out there, this one rocks as far as it being as close to the shows style, imo, so far...

besides, there is the option of fighting on the ground too, at least a change of pace, it's kind of fun to do that ONCE in a while ;)

Really I don't think it's possible to really get the DBZ feel with the HL engine. The models can only get so detailed and then the lighting makes the whole city look like a diorama. HL's lighting system sucks to the nth power. It's no wonder why they made most HL levels dark.

Most of the maps are dark because it was supposed to be disturbing/scary sort of. I think the team has pushed the mod really far, I gotta say I'm really impressed. Oh and the picture is nice I guess.
