Great map, dunno why the guy below is such a dick but you or anyone else could optimize this map easily by embedding func_occluder/occluder brushes in the prop buildings so players aren't rendering what they can't see.

Look into ' rp_2300_vfinal ' if you want a large fallout map. I cant get in touch with this map's maker to help him fix it. And i wont just take other people's stuff and use it without their say.

rp_2300_vfinal is very highly optimized, made to run 128 players, and consists of 6 technical map layers. is noded and naved.

lags immensly

actually almost the whole map has errors.

this area is full of errors

im here to help. serious questions tho, accept friend invite! :D

Hey Malum, was wondering if you'd be down to sharing the vmf of the map. I wouldn't be sharing anything without your consent and simply needed the environment edited for a test. Totally understand if not.

why is it so dark?

Can I have permission to edit this map? I'd like to add support for stormfox so there can be a day and night time

@Dopey Possibly, been getting side-tracked with real life and other interests.

Any plans for new maps?

Oof, that's weird, I can usually just delete the in-map one with VIDE and my nodegraph editor one will work

I had tried to do that previously with VIDE, and it also seemed to prefer to wipe the packed ain file over using it. I ended up doing it mostly in Hammer now with a few scripts and programs made for previous maps.

The reason why the nodegraph gets replaced by a 1kb file is because your map has an empty one pre-packaged inside of it. You have to delete the one from the map first before using any others.

I haven't checked your latest update yet but, in case you didnt figure it out this is the solution ^

a

O I've done that, and I have the completed .ain and it functions on my personal setup, but anyone who downloads through the workshop seems to have their setups replace it with a empty .ain once they load in.

Hmm.. Make sure you disable the workshop version and try typing ai_norebuildgraph 1 in console before loading the map, or add that to your autoexec.cfg

I've been attempting to fix the AI Nodes for quite some time now, any time I package them into the workshop, they are overwritten when loading the map. Goes from a 480 KB file to 1 KB

Please fix the AI nodes, I really wanted to have large scale battles on this map and now I can't..

"Bizz Sucks" in red, glowing spraypaint

true

It would be a good idea to get rid of the fallout 4 props as they are severely unoptimized.

AI nodes are broken again...

Well, I have fixed my idiocy and fixed the packing of content, I apologise I was kinda out of it on the last update. Feel free to point and laugh at this user.

not very epic, gamer

Update: 22 Feb @ 6:16pm
Fixed a few texture issues.

but also forgot to pack the rest of the maps content?

i have problem with the textures. I'm writing about it, because when I played on this map last time, I didn't have any deficiencies and when I recently loaded this map I don't have to explain what happened. Errors and pink black texture

Where are the errors, I'm fairly sure everything was packed in properly.

Errors. Mnogo blyat errors

where can i find props or models that were used in this map

love the map. Sadly nodegraph still doesn't work

The map was originally going to use a server side sound system, so the lack of soundscapes was intentional, I'm still making a few notes but I don't want to keep throwing rapid fire small updates which I inevitably need to fix. I figured I'll be spending time working on it and maybe make that update more substantial.

@Malum Umbra
You did a great job on the map so far!
The only recommendation I would make is at some point in the future adding soundscapes to the map since it feels pretty empty without any sounds, if you need help on making them feel free to add me on Steam.

So I figure next steps will be some cleanup and a overhaul of the lighting, I'm noticing a lot of issues regarding the info lights.

Alright, I figured out why the node-graph was not loading properly. So it was being overwritten by one that was packaged into the .bsp, went in and pulled that one out and inserted a proper node-graph in its place, tested it and it loads properly on my end though I am working on the source files so let me know how things go.

Yeah I'm looking into the node-graph at the moment. Been manually doing it like the nav-mesh.

man this looks great

AI nodes still don't work sadly... The ones generated by the Node Tool don't work for this map, you might have to place them in Hammer...

I'd appreciate it, I'll look it over and see about packaging it

Hey man I actually was going to use this for an event today on a server and made a nodegraph for it. I ussually wouldnt bother you about it and its not the best but do you want me to send it to you?

I'll see what I can do, first time map maker, was a bit worried setting the sky too high would impact performance.

Also some of the props have the wrong $surfaceprop
(Some of them are metal despite being composed almost entirely of concrete)
And the sky is pretty low, it'd be nice to be able to fly an LFS Vertibird around.

This map is really cool! I'm so glad it has a navmesh, wish it had AI nodes as well, but overall great work! The lighting is so good, it's really atmospheric!~

Looks good
