OMG the r-speeds on that map must be something around 2000. That looks incredible man, but it's not possible to make a map that detailed for hl. Hl can not handle those things, some people with highend comp might be able to see the thing, but it will crash with the first swoop.

Actually FPS is fine in the map. But this map is probably not going to be used for HL. We're going to make a mod and use it.

yea if i can't get decent fps for it on esf, i might convert it to something else, maybe a hl2 mod? hopefully it will be playable :O
if i must, i'll simplify it i guess =\

*grumbles something about why he suggested doing a smaller section of midgar* ;P

Seriously though, at the least, see what happens with HL2. Even though it won't even approach the size of HL2's max map size, it'd be an interesting test of converting HL maps to HL2 maps. Also, I wanna be able to play it ;P Hmmmm. Low G Midgar HL2DM :p

So this is the 2500 face building, I was waiting to see it. ;)
That's some incredible detail, just do anything and everything you can to prevent it from blowing up old computers. ;P

Once in a long while something comes along that throughly impresses me well beyond my expectations. This is one of those things.

It looks great. I thought it was going to be another sad attempt but you got it almost square on... I was just wondering if you could show us the scaling you have set up for it though.

well im trying to scale it perfectly, but i dont know how good it is yet, cuz last time i tested it ingame, it was just with the shinra building. but that building is pretty dam high in game ;]

thanks for all the comments on my work so far, i was trying to go for perfection in making an exact copy of the real thing ^_^

also when hl2 comes out, i'll have a lot more space to work in, and will probably get to adding all the floors of the building that are accessible in the game, and the elevators and whatnot.

That looks really nice.
I would rather have Wutai as a battlefield though.

I must say for myself that i am quite the ff7 buff,
and from what ive seen through all my playing,
youve completely depicted with this map. I see
absolutely nothing wrong with it, youve mapped
it exactly how it should be. Awesome job dude,
great map of Midgar
