I will probably make a decal for the parking spaces. What type of detail do you mean, more cracks and such? Or debris and stuff like that?

Textured. Came out a lot better than I expected

Also added some more props.

Haha, I tend to think like that too. I still think the lobby looked better in dev texes

More pics! Parking garage, not textured yet but it has some npcs and some relatively nice detail already. http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/3628/ocofficeoffensive0011wjoi7.jpg http://img82.imageshack.us/img82/2126/ocofficeoffensive0015mv8.jpg http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/2561/ocofficeoffensiv...

Then they won't have the right sound set and animations :/

Bah, I still have a bit of a problem with this. When I went into multiplayer with some friends, they attacked everyone but the host but did no damage. So their names are green and they don't do damage, but they still attack...Any way around this? I have them set to Like player, perhaps I should use ...

Why not just make a script (or find one) that will automatically take posts in the news forum and throw them up on your site? Or is your site html?

Yea, well, you can just simply add in env_lightglow and just add in some props. Where is the setting in your map? Security guards working their way up from the basement of an office building to the roof. I haven't really focused much on a "deep" storyline or anything, I am just trying to ...

I kinda find the storyline help me, I don't know why but it does. You can enchant the room with effects such as lightglow, add in some detail like the wall-pillar.. um, let me try and show you, hold on. Oh okay, I get what you mean now. Pretty simple, just haven't heard to it referred to as effects...

Mapping is new to you? Wow, that is quite nice, I have been mapping for HL1 and HL2 for 4 years and that is on par with my work. This looks like it is going to be fantastic!

How does that relate to "effects?" Perhaps you can give me an example of what sort of things you are talking about from other maps.

You don't say? Yeah, it would be cool!
*sigh* maybe that's a little too obvious, but yeah, you're right!

For specifics though, what do you mean by "effects?" Details? Flickers, lasers, colors, sparkles?

Prototstar wrote:It would be cool if you add in some effects in some location.

I'm adding some nice lasers throughout the weapons labs for effect. I will probably also add some more detail later, like sparking light fixtures and props.

You should make them thinner for a best "bridge" feeling.

Sounds right. Lowered them from 32 wide to 16. Still 8 units thick, however. I want them to fit along the border of the bridge nicely.
