Map Dedicated To Server And Leet Lounge

I, Psi Killare, would love to make a map dedicated to the server. I dont care for anything in return. I would like suggestions on the map or if you want one at all. If enough people say they want a map dedicated to the server and have enough suggestions on how big, underground, or watever, will start on saturday and will take some time, may be a few weeks. So post on my topic and i hope i can help the server either way!

I remember Grim doing this before...don't think he ever finished it...I'll give suggestions when I'm back from a party.

Haha I remember this.

Should it be one or more towns?
How large?
Should it have a specified or created gun store and drug store?
Should it have an underground system?
How large should it's Civil Protection Building be?
Should it have our server's IP on the map?
Should it have a tranportation system?
Should i have buildings for civilians with there custom jobs?
Should i make a Food Building?
Should the mayor have an open (out in the city) building or a inclose one (only he and the cops can get to it)?
Should there be large roads for vehicles, side walks for civilians, and/or trees and other plant life?
Should cops have an overwatching building that can see all of the map?
Maybe You Have other suggestions but these were just some ideas...

First of all, are you good with hammer? Do you have any previous work you could show us?

No i have no previous work i can show u I'll make a small demostration before sunday ill start right now but i was going to build my own game but couldnt get the model of weapons thing down. I did study the maps more because i thought i could use them more so i could create a small map demostration the only few things i havent learned yet but will in the next 2 days until saturday, Dark RP doors and non ownable doors i have yet to learn yet. For creating all the spawn points and walls and all around the map i can create so far.

I barely understood that...please use correct punctuation and grammar before a certain Anonymous BA assassinates you. :D

I shall translate what Psi Killare wrote.

I have no previous work I can show you right now. I'll make a small demostration map before sunday. I'll start right now instead of making a gamemode. I have studied some of the maps so I could understand how they are made. This way I could create a small map demostration. I still don't know some stuff about mapping, but in the next few day I'll be studing more. I still need to figure out Dark RP doors and non ownable doors. I know how to create all the spawn points and basic walls and all around the map.

A tip ahead of time... Dark RP automatically makes all doors ownable. You have to use DarkRP ingame to actually set it unownable or CP/Mayor only. So, as a mapper, do not worry about setting that up. As a personal preference, use the smallest number of doors in a single house. I hate paying property tax on 7 closets and fridge doors.

Sorry, couldnt get on the forums earlier. Thank you Austin for translating. I have figured out how to make doors and ladders, which was surprizingly easy. I have the options of making doors slide or rotate. Also another feature i have the ability to make is breakable doors, I'm asking if i should make my doors have a breaking limit, so tell me. Another is auto closing doors, should i have them? I'm slowly making a map demonstrating some of what i know and what i can put on the map to give you thoughts of what i should put on the FINAL edition of the map.
I also need a name for my map. Have ideas please post them.



This is just an update on where i am right now.

You should go find and download rp_cargtown. It was a great map. It was horribly blocky and ugly, but it was one of the greatest maps of all time.

This is my suggestion:
Don't make an "official leet lounge map"
Yet

Get lots and lots of practice creating, whatever the hell you want really. Make sure you're really good (this is a LONG TERM GOAL)
And then edit rp_venetian. Make a bigger ocean, more islands, a bigger city, etc. but you'll worry about that later (WHEN YOU'RE REALLY GOOD)

If you continue on the path you're on I can predict the outcome:
You slave over your map for a grand total of like, a week or something. It is a piece of shit. The community goes "yeahhhhhhhhhh, uhh..." and then BA goes "Fuck you kid I always knew this would be a failure because you suck" because he's a dick.
And then you are filled with spite and stop playing on the server and tell everyone that "THOSE GUYS AT LEET LOUNGE ARE DICKS"

when it could have all been avoided by you not sucking at making maps.

Also, don't try to make any "rain" effects...

All that is basically what I said to him in steam chat, but less nice...

Yeah, last time someone mapped for us that didn't know what he was doing, this happened.

I THINK MY EYES ARE BLEEDING SHOULD THEY BE BLEEDING OMG I HOPE THEY STOP BLEEDING!!!!!

Wow, that's horrible.

LOLPICTURE

I Can't edit rp_venetian, seeing as it's a BSP file not a VMF because the hammer editor only can edit VMF files. Although i can make a map close to it and make it have like 3 large islands. In that case should i make a river or stream through the city so airboats can get through? I'll work on a map THAT WONT SUCK (BA...) lol it'll take a couple of weeks, ill keep posting untill then. :)

You have to decompile it.

Before you start editting rp_venetian... Work on practice maps. I will do the same if I feel like it. If I put my mind to it, I'll be able to make a half decent building or something. I could continue from there and see what happens... So yeah. If you guys want me to at least give mapping a shot, convince me.

Do it or else! I'll tell spades how you called him the great spanyard!

Lol I found this remember?

Austin if u start to work on maps too we can work together to get a map done MUCH faster. I finally figured out some of my problems through a practice map im making... so austin if u feel like it go ahead im not stopping u.
Heh have fun, im sure ull go crazy by how much crap u have to do to learn the right stuff.

I never said "Spades is the Great Spanyard!", I merely said Spades The Spanyard. If I do not have school tomorrow because of snow or something exploding, then I'll map. I started a base of the map. It's going to be a short road with a sidewalk, and house.
