@Brookster ok thanks for the information

@deaconwalford Unfortunately I've not been in the modding scene for many years now so not from me. Maybe someone else will make them. Hope that helps :)

SMEG

If you can please make a starbug map.

smegarama

holy smeg

Cool, to be honest you can do what you want with the map. I'm not modding anymore.

Thanks, I've uploaded an image yesterday before i asked, i only thought of asking you before i uploaded another, and decided to ask you.

Sure, i'm not doing anything with the map at the moment so feel free.

@Brookster
May I create some sort of Alternate Reality Game based on this map?
I'm only asking.

There hasn't been a prison built that could hold Derek Custer.

Ah. Here we go. For example, these random circuits probably aren't doing the map any favours https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1755808852722970368/24AE2C3CE76254C99E65FA7E33FB5A218A232B67/

Oh, nevermind. I'll take a quick look anyway! Looks interesting

I feel as though the reason why you've hit the limit for the map is because of un optimization. If you look at rp_stardestroyer, there's a lot more stuff on that map. Maybe reach out to the developer of that map for tips? Also, if the old map is the same but with fewer rooms, I wouldn't bother making it public.

If you were to remove the scattered meteorites would that help make room for possible map expansion?

It's still uploaded, just private. If you want me to make it public I can. However I'll be honest, the map is exactly the same except without the blue Midget and less rooms. Just with a different engine on the Ship.

Good shit. Someone should port the Dwarfers themselves from the crappy phone game they made a bit back, then we'd be set.

Do you still have the first Red Dwarf map? I would kinda like to take a look if you don't mind.

Nice map!

fair point

Because creating spheres in the old source engine is basically impossible, the option to create one is so broken that half the time planes on the surface will not load in, or the map fails to compile. Blue Midget is a lot simpler design to build in the source engine.

ok, explain to me why it doesnt heave the starbug? the most common in the entire duration of the serieses?

LIKE IT... I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!

I'm glad you like it Thank You!

Holy Holly THIS is so COOOOL like red dwarf is my favourite thing thank you so much!!!

Yeah it is

is that the ship of red dwarf?

You can try, it won't hurt to. But this engine has been left like this for years, leaving it so outdated. Valve already started work on source2 years ago and nothing has come up about that so I can only guess they won't want to fix an old engine. But you will never know if you don't try, I will leave that decision up to you.

Should I Contact Them And Request For An Update Of The Old Engine?

There's not much anyone can do unless Valve were to update the old engine. Bare in mind this engine dates back to half life 2. So, I guess it's a relief it works at all in 2019.

Oh, Well I Dont Actually Know What To Do In Terms Of How To Fix That.

Well, you can decrease the plane count by adding a 'Nodraw' texture to surfaces that aren't seen during play. These nodraw textures won't be rendered ingame and therefore not count as a plane. However this doesn't resolve the issue completely as eventually you will reach that max plane count again. I had actually already hit this problem early in development of this map however I was able to use the nodraw textures all over the map and completely retexture each surface. However as I said I have once again hit that maximum plane count and no amount of retexturing will fix this.
And yes, I have thought about making a mini version, I would do this by basically removing the red dwarf exterior, however how much more planes that will give me will be unknown.

Think There May Be A Mini-Version Or A System Where The Planes Are Hidden If Not In Sight, Allowing You To Improve The Map?

I've hit a bit off a problem with this map, in seems the game engine only allows a maximum amount of planes in the map (Textured surfaces) otherwise it stops calculating the lighting. This has caused me to stop making this map, because of It's grand size I literally cannot add anything else. Maybe I will go back and try to fix this however currently I can't update the map. Maybe it's something about the engine that valve could try and fix, maybe in source 2.

Next Update When?

Thanks, I always justified the change of interior by saying that they moved to another part of the ship when they got bored with their surroundings. Either that or each series is based in another alternate universe.

I like how you combined different eras of the show with each other. Like the Series X quarters with the Series II Blue Midget.

*Rimmer salute*

Both ideally, but that's just a pipe dream. I was originally talking about the shuttle however it would be cool if the big ship moved too.

Which Ship?
The Shuttle?
Or The Red Dwarf?

Glad you enjoyed it. I want to make the ship move as it was an idea I had. Maybe I could include it in the future.
