Re: Crenia (not in-game)

The main problem I see here: you don't realize how much you're overscaling your map.

Here are some suggested standard dimensions of things:
Player dimensions: 32*32*72 units (width*depth*height)
Hallway width: 64 units (minimum is 32 units)
Hallway/room height: 128 units (minimum is 72 units)
Staircase step height: 8 units
Staircase step depth: 12 units
(this is known as "8 rise 12 run")
Door dimensions: 48*4*96 units (width*depth*height)
Window dimensions: 32*4*32 units (width*depth*height)
Wall thickness: 16 units
Floor/ceiling thickness: 16 units
Desk height: 30 units
Counter height: 40 units
Small room area: 128*128 units (width*depth)

Try using some of these dimensions so your map doesn't look so freaking huge.

Well that, and he boxed his map.

Re: Crenia (not in-game)

Woops, I missed that part.

Kindomtitan, putting a huge box textured with "SKY" around your map is a bad idea. Instead, you should put sky brushes only at places where you have to seal your map. Never put a box around your map, because it causes huge lag.

And the skybox also appears to be 1 unit thick

Re: Crenia (not in-game)

If you do decide to have your map be that actual size, try scaling your larger surface textures up to like 1.5 or 2.

It will reduce the amount of lag and it won't look as repetitious/bad.

Re: Crenia (not in-game)

Does the white block (ms_playerspawn i think) represent the actual size of the player on the map?

Yes.

Re: Crenia (creating)

I take Care of these things in future , but my next problem is , I wanted to try out my map (betatest)
but after i launched dedicated server , and wanted to fire it up ,an ErroR came :,, Couldn't open .wad"
I talked with Dridje . I copied all my wads in these folders but , the ErroR came again :,, Couldn't open .wad" -.-

I think , If i cant fix that problem i remove that (ugly) Map ...

Re: Crenia (working at)

You need scale. Every unit in halflife is one inch, however hl player clips are 'fat' and the field of view angles are wide so make doors sizes and room heights slightly bigger than they would be in real life.

 

[Kindomtitan]

Re: Crenia (working at)

:Okay

-Im working already on it...

 

[FER]

Re: Crenia (working at)

Do you measure the scales with the grid?

 

[Kindomtitan]

Re: Crenia (working at)

Mostly yes . ....

Why ??

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

When I remove the box , I can't compile it.

But i've compiled the map already , when i want to start , The ErroR cames.

Despite the bugs described above, I like it.

If you have your hammer 3.5 configured correctly, you don't see a white box - you see a player model - this kinda removes all doubts as to scale.

You still have to seal your map proper.

Re: Crenia (working at)

Is it good to use a newer hammer version? I heard its better to have an older one

 

[Thothie]

Re: Crenia (working at)

Using 3.5 is the way to go... Using Source hammer, that's difficult.

Re: Crenia (working at)

Hahaha that is great

Re: Crenia (working at)

You'll have to excuse my red background and white-striped null texture.
