Love this map fr

For those who are interested, I've uploaded a few screenshots of my progress you can look at. You can access these via my profile

@witherblaze I currently am working on the next NPC-Map. It's size is a lot bigger but it still needs some time in the oven. It'll probably be ready this year (Probably upload it timed with christmas)

we need more of these types of maps

WE NEED MORE MAPS LOOKS LIKE THIS

why is it not letting me walk on the floor

One of my first maps i ever played, pretty sigma

i love this map <3

Ah cool, icl it scared the ♥♥♥♥ outta me the first time I did it lmao

@Goaticus Maximus it is triggered by pressing E on the little decal on the Clock in the Trainstation. This though is the only really secret thing this Map has to offer.

What triggers the gman thing? and are there any other things like that?

npc_airport next?

b

Map crashed my pc :(

i love stuff like is i just hate maps that rmoved your abilities of sanbox which does not make it sandbox but this map is good because it deos not do that like with town with people i hope you make a remastered and bigegr version fo this soon adn please do not take away our abilities of spawning weapons and more like how npc town did

It also works fine with VJ installed.

Opencity 2 has a much better system, complete with individual criminals and he's released the vmf:

I'd suggest grabbing a copy it and checking how he did it.

Having a guess some of the combine (Such as the ones dropped by helicopter) haven't had their relationship status set.

Some of the Combine are supposed to attack Citizen on sight. But by default they shouldn't be able to see them from their spawnposition. But why is this Map behaving so weird for alot of different Players? There has to be a reason.

Disabled all Mods and tried and the combine this time attacks the Citizen

Then I don't really know If I can help you. In Multiplayer this is quite buggy, as if one player aggroed the NPC's they will attack every Player.

combine attack i disabled all addons

"facepalm" alright...

I suggest disabling every addon and trying it again. It work's fine on my end.

there is none of those "exept vj" but i disabled it and they still attack

It says it in the description. In case of the Combine attacking, most likely this is caused by an Addon overwriting the default AI Friendship system or just edit AI in general. So Addons like VJ Base, Improved Stealth, iNPCs etc. will break the intended way to play this map. Try it out, if it works without addons and if it works then (which it should) find the conflicting Addon and disable it while playing on the map.

HOW DO YOU MAKE THE COMBINE NOT ATTACK?????

ok

It requires Gmod tp play. That's it.

does this map require any game?

do you know a map that is like this but its a desert and there is like 3 to 4 buildings there?

why do the combine attack?

e

I actually can't, as I don't have the Mapfile on the maps latest version(vmf). That's why I couldn't update the map even if I wanted to.
But as alternative you could delete the NPC's manually and then use the "Save" function that excists in G'mod. I hope it's not to much trouble and I'm sorry..

@Nikey YO, I really like the map and the concept, But i really want to use the map without the npc's. Is there a way you can make another map, (The exact same as this, just without the NPC's) please?

True

gm_npctown more like gm_beattheshitoutofnpcs

Im not sure

likely a half life 2 themed map? or wasnt it?

i remember a map that you spawned in a house and a metrocop knocks on your door anyone know that map?

Are there any more maps like this one on the workshop?

I rarely can see any NPC maps in Garry's Mod, and when i find new ones - that makes me extremely happy. Thank you for creating this map. I love how trippy is it

The button behind the drawer spawns in Roxxane Wolf for some reason...

The secret with G-man can be triggered by pressing E on the Clock at the mentioned trainstation. There is a T sticker on that clock which has an invisible button on it. It can only be triggered once or multiple times, if you reset the map.

Theres some hidden secret in one of the train station things in the far corner next to the train tunnel where it spawns gman, he says something then kills everyone. can someone explain how i triggered this

The big problem, however, is that info_node_link (as well as node linking in general) is broken in latest Garry's Mod version as reported here [github.com]. The issue seems to be in the compilers specifically (I bet VBSP), so you could try using Half-Life 2 or Source SDK compilers to compile the map and see if node connections work.

[2/2]

Regarding hint nodes: I suggest looking at AI Metrics page. It lists the maximum jump-up distance, maximum drop distance and maximum horizontal jump distance for NPCs. Then, I believe there were 'npc_select' and 'npc_go' commands that help with testing navigation.

info_node_link can be also useful in certain situations. Theoretically it could be used to make NPCs walk into elevators or trains (and then walk out). You can see example of that in my gm_chase_pt1 map, which is part of my Map Pack. I believe you can download the VMF and see how it's done.

add headcrab as a pet immediatly

It's nice to see you commenting here. Getting feedback from a fellow mapper is worth gold.

-I don't know how much performance projected textures actually use, maybe more than I thought.

-Yeah I noticed the amped up HP is a bit overkill. I wanted to scale it based on [TFA] Weapons, which was a bad Idea after all (and alot of work). The Damage though seemed fine. Lack of cover surely is true. I thought about implementing Barricades and more, but then thought they would ruin the look of the map. Not only that, I've used almost no info_node_hint since I found them confusing to work with. The Overwride Jump Permission hint felt like it worked at random and was really a struggle to get working. I need to experiment more with those.

Cheers mate

Interesting map. I like how you conveyed the exhibit feeling at the general store, and how the hospital has centrifuge-like things. The performance (FPS) isn't that great, maybe partly because you (ab)used projected textures. I don't know for sure, I haven't profiled it.

I wouldn't say NPCs with more health is a good thing. I did experiment with lowering player health on my maps to make it more challenging. I would say it was a failure, just made it more annoying to play. On top of that, there isn't much cover, especially on the surface. So combat doesn't feel like shooting something to death, it feels like clicking and holding left mouse button while tracking a thing for 2-4 seconds.

I did like some secrets I found and enjoying exploring the map in general. I'm looking forward to what you come up with in the future.
