It took me ten years to find this 😭

here from vanoss ggs

Good question. I have no idea what nodes I have in it since it has been forever since I made it but I likely did include one so if someone does add NPCs in Gmod they will be able to nav around the place.

Only one way to find out. Load it up and spawn zombies in gmod to see if they move.

dose this have a npc node?

and before you ask i have css that is not the issue

everything has broken reflection textures all over it it didnt have that problem a a year ago what happened

Not sure what you mean by 'fucked'. I suggested setting mat_specular to 0.

MAT_specular is fucked what do i do

Anyway my map is old. NoxiousNet is now defunct. If anything was added towards the end of the game's life this map won't have it.

There isn't one. As far as I know Zombie Survival never had one. They added escape portals that would spawn randomly at the end of the game though.

where is the escape car?

I can probably fix things, but no one ever posts links to screenshots of the problems or details on what entries in the VMT files need tweaking. Everything looks fine on my end.

Since NoxiousNet shut down and TI ended I may even have to time to finally update things and even create cubemaps.

In the theatre? Yes.

Was that G-Man?

Its not the damn cubemaps, check the VMT files. They contain a paramater that refers to a missing file.

Truth be told, installing Half-Life 2 and Counter Strike: Source should take care of everything.

the park benches are errors in my game.

okay let me do it

I need a screenshot. I won't have errors.

what props are they

The errors are in the "park" area, near the green fog.

I still need more information. Screenshots?

mat_specular 0 Does not help! What to do? :(

I need more information than that. What do the errors look like and have they been solved in previous comments or the description?

A have ERRORS! Please, help!

Yeah, I'm aware of the cubemap issue. This map was compiled ages ago when GMOD had an issue with cubemaps and they ended up broken so you have to use the command 'mat_specular 0' before loading or you'll just see a bunch of purple on certain textures and it will drive you nuts.

I have to get off my butt and finally update my map but I need to redo some textures first. Not that it's an excuse, I've just been forgetting about it and putting it off forever.

there are cube maps becuse i scaned your map an it has a lot of them still working makeing graphical errors

The lights are mostly static except for the ones by desk lamps, which can be toggled by using the E key, and the one or two dynamic lights attached to dangling light fixtures.

If it's the desk lamp you are talking about it activates like everything else. E Key.

how do you turn the lights on in the lobby of the mall?

Yes, it can be played in single player sandbox. I'm pretty sure any map can as long as you have sandbox chosen as the current gamemode.

can we play in single player sandbox?

I've added the link to the zipped version. I'll keep it this way from now on.

The area the fountain is in is pretty busy and without an expert looking at it I don't think I can improve it. I'm not good with diagnostic console commands that narrow down that stuff.

The map is a remake, but I re-did so much stuff it's practically a new map. The fountain wasn't in the old map.

Alyx is just a snowy animated texture and she's not doing anything.. If you USE click on the remote control on the coffee table in front of the TV, an Alyx sound clip will play. That's all.

What's Alyx doing on television in screenshot fifteen?

I too do not want the fountain to go, it's just the optimization that needs to be dealt with. The fountain is a nice decorative element and fits perfectly in the place.

You said this was a complete remake of another map, right? Is this an issue in the original?

Well, It blocks Weebly sites, so I thought, does Steam block Google sites? The answer was no. So I made a small site called PeekofwarWeebkyRedirects and it has a page that contains a link to my actual website...

I'll do a test to see if it still works:
https://sites.google.com/site/peekofwarweeblyredirect/
If it says "link removed" then that means they blocked Google.

Thanks for providing lots of info. Especially those screenshots. I can see now that people were talking about cubemaps missing and not textures missing.

The purple goes away if you use 'mat_specular 0' in console like the user 'heavy' suggests because it disables cubemaps. When I made this map the buildcubemaps was disabled in gmod. Wow, that was almost a year ago, too. I think it has been re-enabled since then I really need to finish this and update the ad textures.

As for the damned fountain I'm well aware of the fps drop issue but have no idea what the cause is and it annoys me to no end. A solution for this is something I really need. I love the fountain and I don't want to replace it with a bunch of indoor plants or something.

And as for that Google thing, I thought it filtered anything not part of Steam. Are you saying it won't block links as long as it doesn't link directly to archives?

Also the water fountain seems to produce FPS issues.

You can bypass the Steam URL Filter by making a simple Google Site with a page that has a hyperlink to the URL. (I've done that)

Hey, um I'm missing textures for the shader or whatever this render effect is called... The texture that shines on objects.

Are you saying that people seeing purple can fix the problem by typing in mat_spectular 0 in console? Or are you saying people see the error only when mat_specular is set to 0 instead of 1?

found the purple error when css is mounted type in mat_specular 0 in the consele

I really have no idea what is causing the purple stuff because it looks fine on mine. Please disable your mods to see if that fixes things (I want to rule them out). If you can pinpoint a specific mod please post it here.

I still see purple even though i already have css mounted

All i see is purple and errors and I have Css mounted help?

Thank you for trying and Merry Christmas

All I can suggest is checking the internet for a solution. I can only guess a mod is interfering. Disable them and see if it fixes the issue. I've never had this issue with any map. Sorry if I can't be more help.

All Games mounted CS:S, CS:GO, All of the half life episodes, tf2, day of defeat, left for dead 1 and 2 and it still has missing textures

IS CSS installed and mounted?

the map is missing textures! and yes, i do have CS:S

The map is textureless for me! ill uninstall some mods to see if that may work but i have all games installed and its not working!
