what has boredom brought?

[Raeku]

I wish I could make terrain like that...

Nice map, hope it turns out as good as your other maps, which it probably will.

Question-Does the epoly count affect gameplay/lag at all?

*edit* nvm, imkongkong already sorta cleared that up.

 

[imkongkong]

from what i know, epoly is rendered faster than wpoly, so if you have good enough resources it shouldn't affect it THAT much compared to having a large wpoly count

model polycount is also taken into account under epoly. so really high poly models may lag the server up. esf's poly count is around 1500 i believe. so having all those trees are like having 2 extra players in the map

For a player size that small (proportionate to the rest of the map), wouldn't the mountains be a tad blocky?

 

[Grega]

No it would not. Cause the moutains are mapped not drawn. >.<

If it would be a 2D picture than increasing its size would make it blocky. Shile in maks you can make it as big as you want teh edges are allways the same.

 

[imkongkong]

i made the trees a lot bigger, i think it looks awesome >_< maybe i should make them bigger? what do u guys think.

btw, if theres anyone who can help me with getting screencaps from episode 118 aside from dragonballparidijs website, those arent enough i need more

and if anyone wants to help make some map props, contact me please

Scaling the trees is allways a good thing ^^

Thats what i did in my map. Looks more realistic.

 

[movento]

i'm very bored,i could make you some models if you want,but my skinning skills are below terrible.and i don't think i can make alpha mapped model either.do you need the android capsules or something?or a head of dr gero =P
the map looks great,keep it up.

 

[wheres_]

I can skin the props I'll keep in contact with movmento.

 

[imkongkong]

sounds awesome. i'll put up some refs and what i'll need =) anyone can join in the bandwagon if they'd like to. whoever helps of course will get to test play before released

 

[Mr. Phonso]

I could do some objects if you need any

 

[imkongkong]

awesome! >_< lemme get everything fixed up n i'll let u guys know what i'll need. i'll also send u a test version of the map for helpin out

Im loving that map.
Again you did an great job imkongkong.
Ilove good scenery to take ingame pics and this surely pwn again.
:yes:

 

[|Overlord|]

Since you have a lot of nice maps, I reckon you should see to it that you release a map pack soon enough.

 

[.Maze]

That MapPack surely will be pwnage without a doubt.

And i love episode/movie like Maps, where i can take screenys ^^

 

[donnierisk]

Wow! Nice map you got there, it would take me years to make a map like that, I'm still not good with the triangle method or whatever, but i'm improving!
I can't wait for this map, looks good with mutated trees!

 

[.Maze]

I cant wait to play that map, it sure look fun to play and to take some cool screens scene like there.

 

[imkongkong]

ahah anyways thanks for the comments.. wehn i get home its back to the slave room for me >_>

I know this is a bit offtopic but. Did you ever get an error where half the texture becomes a null texture on a brush ingame. But its normal in hammer.

BTW how are the hitboxes on the trees ^^

Cause mine are the same as befor just the model itself is bigger XD

 

[imkongkong]

yea man, well not half of the texture but in two of my brushes on the corners became null.. not really sure why it did

yea i love the trees! hitboxes fit the trunk of the tree even when i made it bigger, i love it >_<

Will this map have the same problems as your other maps do (ie, you can't play them with 24 bit textures turned on in opengl mode?). I was begining to think that the way they are compiled or what not is to blame for that problem.
