Spiritually speaking, of course. ;)

But I r thinking Pimpsta has one too many projects on his plate to finish any one of them. I was hoping he'd at least fix the AMX voter for me.

working on that tonight and tomorrow. I am writing a new amxx and going to get rid of adminvote. I don't think it is really necessary for the adminvote. I am going to use your coding and rewrite it to the proper AMXX code.

hope you like my amxx thothie. I know it is not done but eventually.

Unexpected red == ow >_<

Got any pics on the inside, or is it just very basic brushwork?

yea I am a madman...

I talked to thothie about how much can a server handle if there is so many bosses against all of us. I plan on putting maybe 3 bosses in one room to attack us... it wouldn't lag to much.

This map will be the non-solo-able-map-ever :)

I just want to make maps for MSC since I am bored...
What can I do? rot my brain on the game when I can use my brain power to make a map?

I made 3 levels and split the biggest room into 2 rooms to avoid certain things. so far I have been getting under 90 - 100 FPS and under 100 - 200 wpoly (Thothie's advice me to and getting a lot of help from thothie)
So this map will be done as a promise.

Latest picture of the map and I am going to bed... I have lost my brain already

*EDITED*
I will be hiring a carpenter, drywall, electrician, and plumbing tomorrow or Monday.

Often, very often, leads to compiling problems or extra wpolys/bad r_speeds/lag. New mappers should avoid until they fully understand how the problems are created. Most mappers build a hollow item one side at at time, brush by brush.

Horrible doorway, and I suspect Vlad knows it and is just egging you on.

Your carving is likely causing more lag than your textures, lest you are using those 512x+ textures. 256x256 is the max size you can use with no extra splitting. 512x512 is the max size you can use without causing insane sub-splits.
