Looks good, but I can't say anything until it is out. I just think you should add rain (if you can). It would make it look better than just 1 bolt of lightning.

Off Topic: How come your thread has 40 in like 1 week and mine has 42 in like 1 month ;(. And damn that sig is discusting, is it real or just do some little photoshop magic?

About me for a sec. How do I make prefabs? Do I just make a new rmf then make the shape in there or what? Oh and when I download prefabs and try to compile them it says coplar plane and it won't let me in. I have found tables and lights that will look cool but it won't work :(.

Wow those screenshots look really good. :yes:
How do you add lighting? (Don't have to say if you don't want to :D)
The outdoors area would look nice with fog (If you could do it without messing up the lightning)

Quick mapping n00blet question: What does the error "Bad Surface Extents" mean, and how do you fix it? My moon map makes that error and won't run! If I can fix that I can release my 1st map really soon. :D

Im still not good at lighting (indoors) but use light entity (exacly the name no _ or nothing). They come out as purple squares and they give off light. All my light is unnatural.

:shocked: question overload....and im trying run the forum on a crappy p1 from skool:( ... anyways...

- wangster, yes it will be on redsaiyan
- Mr. Nemo, its not exactly a city map, the buildings in mine are based on SaDwinter's buildings, i wasnt referencing directly from DBZ so they arent completely accurate with the show, but thanx anyway:)
- you can jump on the hills when its done :p
- i am NOT adding rain!!:shocked: that would take soo ****ing long!!!! and would be a lag-monster:p you can save objects as prefabs, dont ask me how, i forget, but its do-able:p
- fog would be good, and check Zoner's help file to answer your problem

Lightning

That looks more like a blue squiggly line, than a lightning bolt.
Here's a Reference pic. give us some good lightning!

i know what lightning looks like :p the lightning setup i have at the moment is complicated, and i can only do so much, and the hl engine can only do so much. i am currently working on improving the lightning, making the beam more bright, wider and more static, but i dont think i could make lightning that branches off like the pick above... and no one seems to complain about the lightning bolts in gokus transformations, so i'll try get it a cross between that and real lightning...if you get what i mean:)

Too bad rain lags and takes a while... it would make it look 100x better with it, but just the lightning will look good too :D!

The lightning isnt constant, it comes at different intervals and sometimes in burst of 2. ive changed the lightning sprite and it looks, in my opinion, a lot better. Ive also added a very light fog which makes the map feel more dark and overcast. Ive sent away version 1 of the map to Red-Saiyan, so it should be (hopefully) up soon. The download will be a little over 2 megs, because it contains 3 new sound files. With version 2 (if i can be bothered to make it :p), i will try to improve the lightning(ie branches of lightning like in the photo above) if i can. I will also add some more buildings (maybe capsule corp), roads and more detail.

lol :p
i dont know about the farm...it doesnt really suit the theme and setting of the map, but i was planning to put in a big billboard on one of the buildings with the evil cat on it :p, i didnt get around to it in version 1, so i'll do it in version 2 (i'll make it destructable aswell just so the few of you who dont like evil cats can....well.......remove it :p)

*gipper:
- I might put more roads in, in the next version
- I doubt i'll put in a stadium, it doesnt suit the setting
- i can only put in so many trees, and the city will be updated with more buildings aslong as it doesnt lag anymore thatn it does already
- why do you want to hide?
