[WIP] City 36

Time, Dr. Freeman? Is it really that time again?

yeah, it's been quite some time now but i had honestly quit mapping as a whole until yesterday, where i decided i wanted to really try and finish it


this building is was what made me give up because of "mapper's block", so the obvious thing to do was to come back and slap that fucker right in the brick wall

there are a few aesthetic things i need to add but what you see is basically done, i couldn't be happier with how it turned out and it is a huge relief to get this shit done

 

just gotta add decals and make this place look dirty and it'll be set to go

i still have to texture it and change the lobby a tiny bit but i was so frustrated on how the fuck skyscraper windows work so i'm glad i figured something out


done

 

good god

 

more

 

you dont know real pain until the textures you apply dont align correctly

 

oof, try alt+right click and it should wrap it seamlessly
i said 'should' because it's a valve developer tool so you can't rely on anything working as it is supposed to ,':^)

 

ive tried that

 

did you select the texture face thats right next to it and do it?

 

doesnt matter I fixed it anyway

 

WIP but basically done

 

i haven't posted in a bit but i have made huge progress, the surface is complete except for the skybox stuff and cleaning up around the edges, and adding powerlines and various other additional things of the sorts

i also have started on this concept, i think i am going to change the nexus clearing area to work like this

the pathways from the start to the exit are randomized every time, with there always being a way to get to the exit
was cool in a gimmicky way but the original will work better in execution and i've changed the way the randomization works on npc spawns

 

a complete 180 on the clearing area but i just couldn't get the npcs to react to my liking
an ultimate thanks to DesertedCake for doing the entire interior design, he even had more but I had to scrap it unfortunately

 

i actually lied, i forgot i still had the factory to do lmao
wip, i'm not sure if i want to have these or not

 

i decided not to use the ration thing, i couldn't set it up to look good and there was a fatal flaw with it that i wouldn't have been able to fix

 

Really liking the look of this map. It's dark and dingy, but it doesn't try hard to be that way.


also never do that ration shit because it's a waste of time and detracts from roleplay
