The fireplace is gas, so no smoke, plus it's is very expensive to draw and does not always work unless you look at it for minute, it's iffy stuff.

I may change that to allow people through. I was thinking about that too.

I am not understanding about what your saying about the trees? I used a shadowlod to decrease the cost of casting a expensive shadows. It use to draw each leaf and branch.

I will fix the lights, good suggestion.

The vent was only there to allow player to get up that way. I think it will cut too much into the other room if I do. Beside the using the doors is faster and right next to that spot, and does not provide any real advantage. I may give it some thought and see if it's worth doing.

Thanks for pointing the grammer out, sometime you can't see the forest for trees.

I did not you could even get up on that, I will fix it or clip it off, I really did not want anyone up there and did not plan on that being used by anybody. I was thinking about making a fountain with water pouring in, but changed my mind.

I got lazy on the flags, I admit it... I should add the hole numbers to flags. I already have about 10 megs of custom textures and models, what's a few more.

Hmmm, I kinda like the looks of the stairs, but I will see about changing it, if I can come up with something else.

I will fix the ramp, a brick texture sounds like a good idea.

And thank you all for vote of confidence, I am glad so many would like to see this map put out, but I don't want to release a crappy map. I will spend some more time working it up and see can improve the fps a little more.

I dont see the leaf textures... why is that? like i see the tree part but i dont see the leaves... get what im sayin?

[slayera]

If you mean some of the leaves are dissapearing then yes, then might depend on where you stand, the leaf faces are one sided. But from the pic I can see some leaves.

i think he meant the tree doesnt fit with the shadow . . . the tree is very stick like, but the shadow is fat and round . . . bah i dunno

Ok, small update. I added some stuff and took out some. I adjusted my hints and removed some, added bsp blocks under the displacements. Helps a little. Func_detailed more part of my building. I slipped down from a 12 hours vis to about 6 hours. Fixed a door for the bots, but they still have a little trouble on it. Need to rerun a new nav mesh. Set more models to fade out. Added some walls around the couse to help close in the building some more. I managed to get a few more fps out of it. Some areas, like looking over the water are still bad, but better. On my system I gained about 10 fps on the average. There a couple of displacement map I need to fix, find out way a sound_scape is not working, and set some better fade on the models. I am hoping to have something ready before the weekend is out for testing. I don't think I going to get much more optimization out of it at this point. If am happy with it and at else one person test for me to make sure everything is ok I will final release as completed.
