Hi,

I have uploaded some screenshots of my new map dm_olphro.
You can take here a look to it.

Post, what you think about it.

it's ok, but it will lag like hell with all that water im afraid, also the buildings look a bit blocky

[Serever]

that looks like some quality shit!
what do you still need to do to it?

[schulzor2004]

Thanks for freedback, I think, it will take still 2 weeks to finish. I will tell you

looking good.. just wath wiggle said about the buildings, wich really look a bit blocky.. try to had something in there to make it diferent

[schulzor2004]

For the buildings..... wait till it is finished. I have some things in mind, that let it look really great and unique. I have some artworks on paper, that are waiting to be "HAMMERED" !!!!!!

Looking nice. Is it all outdoors? If no, can we see some interior screens.

[schulzor2004]

No, it is both. The indoor scene is still heavy under construction, but it already looks very nice. I have used some specialiced lightning effects indoor (indirect lightning). I am also planning to integrate some traps, to make the map fun playing.....

wiggle what's up with you and lag? you seem to get lag from water? ^o) i don't see how I don't even get the slightest lag in dm_WATERHAZARD_v2 and that is 90% water

i was playing on that map that Chris_D from hl2.net made a while back, and even he admitted that he got bad lag regularly from his map

and thats about 30% water

every water map i go on there is terrible lag, i even end up flying through the air! it makes it a terrible gaming experience

again cyberblast, you have a magical source engine build which doesnt require cubemaps. Infamous water lagg is not a problem and the gman wear a tutu

[Cyberblast]

Hey! how'd you know that about gman? Well anyway I asked if anyone had problems with the water but they hadn't, but this might be explained by the fact that my water has no surface? (it's still not working) it's alot easier to render a void than a reflective surface I guess. What exactly gives this lag, wich aspect of the water?
