Actual Map of Rockford
I have no official release date for this, mainly because it's going up as soon as it's ready (be it the map is compiled and briefly tested or Karma finishes the script) but I am shooting for hopefully the end of this weekend. Stick around and stay tuned because you don't want to miss this map. Keep in mind its going to be up for about a week for beta testing so please report any and all bugs you see.
Here's some features:
-Brand new day/night mod (also in beta) using the new GM13 Skypaint and REAL night lighting (no fake overlays or lit up nights)
-Designed for the OCRP gamemode (clothing store, separate emergency service buildings, bus depot, tow yard, etc)
-Realistic city system (traffic lights, road signs, streets, addresses, etc)
-Awesome
-Optimized for FPS
-Unique feel
-Utilization of the Z axis
-Loads of ownable property
>6 slum apartments
>12 nice apartments
>6 residential houses
>1 country house
>9 shops (ownable)
>3 office spaces (in the gov building)
>4 warehouses (3 are in the country)
>1 Power Plant Yard
-Ocean + Pier for fishing
-Tons of driving space
Without further adoo, here's some eyecandy:
-
Is it going to be public or private beta testing? Aside from that, the pics in the other thread look good so why not use those?

Cause I just compiled the latest version which has 2x sexier pictures lol. I forgot about that when I posted this. Should be done in about 15 minutes.

Uploaded. The last one is just showing how awesome this skypaint is. The lighting is kinda dope and the night lights are somewhat broken. This will all be fixed.
-
The pictures, oh its so sexy.
-
Looks nice, I'll be sure to check it out. :3
-
This looks amazing... I would love to beta test the map. I cannot wait to play this on OCRP2.
-
I'm really hoping this new map will bring back OCRP2 Players!
Also awesome map.
-
Fantasic map, statua, can not WAIT to be playing OCRP on it
-
good work fgt.
User Warned for Shitposting. 10% Warning Added.
-
I'm really excited for this map, hopefully this gives OCRP the surge of players it needs.
Outstanding work, Statua!
-
Probably wont be done by the end of the weekend :( I've been working 12hr shifts and Karma's busy both with HRP and IRL shit to focus on getting OCRP ready for the map. But nevertheless, the end of this project is VERY close :D

So is the whole "end of the weekend" thing still on, or... End of the weekend means today, so yeah.

Didn't he say in the post you quoted that it "probably wont be done by the end of the weekend"? Why ask if you just quoted him saying probably not?
-
Something like that vizioN, people dont read the quotes that they quote anymore, so... But besides the point, I have, and will continue to offer what help I can from here, as I am off until tuesday, and only work a little next week.
-
Honestly Rose unless you know hammer inside and out, there's not much left to do. I'm finalizing and optimizing. Unless you know LUA and can take over Karma so he can enjoy his time off.
-
I am mediocre at best. My ability to LUA is limited, but its enough to have given you guys the GMR that we have now, as well as my racer tester, with some help from karma of course. But even then, I cant take his position in deving because I work 10+ hours a day, 6 days a week in a local factory. Im never home anymore.
-
Just curious, but will this be on the workshop? I'd imagine that if it were, people could just download it as they join the server. That was the main problem with Evocity, right? That it couldn't be workshop'd?
-
Yes it will be on the workshop after the public beta.
-
Ignore my earlier post, I have a new question: Do we have a confirmed/theorized release date?
-

The map is practically done so whenever Karma gets around to the daynight script and setting OCRP up for it.

Why not just port the current one to Rockford? I'm not any good with Hammer at all, so I don't know.

Oh, I see. Are lights actually going to work?

Lol just look at the pictures and you'll see what I mean... And yes the exterior lights will work. I just need some things in the script changed in order for them to work right. Right now they're kinda backwards.
-
Map is ready. Just need the scripts and to make sure they work.

Any idea on how long that'll take?

Apparently .1% longer

No my good sir, it would be .01% longer. .1 = .10, which in order to achieve 100% all that needs to be added to the progress bar is .01%, if it were .1% you'd go over 100%.
math 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
-
Assuming Statua is waiting on the day night script, hopefully it'll be done tomorrow. Just a few things left to add.
-
Sweet baby jesus. ;)
I really hope this new map is the key to more population on OCRP2. Or at least for a little while.
I became really bored of OCRP2 earlier but over time I regained interests and want to play it again. But it only requires some players to make it interesting.
-
OCRP2's script also needs to be set up for Rockford. This means doors, NPCs, regions, etc.
-
So if CG can fix ocrp2 and not make it autistic, maybe waffle should sell the ocrp1.5 script and make it kinda like clockwork. If its leaked/someone gets a hold of it, like the clockwork script, it'll fuck up and there will still be back doors so the devs can wreck havoc. Plus the number 1 thing he will get from it, the most important thing to him it seems, DOSH
-
Why did OCRP die in the first place, anyway? The only thing bad about it was the amount of stuff you needed to install, but there wasn't even as much for OCRP as there was for HL2RP...

if you played ocrp in the 1.5 era, and then in the 2.0 era, you'd see a big difference. attuitide, rules, the way the game is played, i mean really everything is different. 1.5 seemed to be a lot more laid back and the general atmosphere was better. oh and it was on 2vd which was a big difference, seeing how x33 or whatever the name is was to different/many people didn't have the map. and like a lot of people, including me, autodl/fastdl rarely works when downloading maps when joining the server for the first time, so that always hurt since most people didn't have x33 in the first place.
i dunno man, go look at the servey that was done, but im just saying what i feeels.

Are you talking about intentionally placing malicious code into the gamemode? Also putting a "backdoor" in the gamemode to gain unauthorized access to someones computer system is a felony in it of itself and possibly even more felonies depending on what you do once you are in the system. Not to mention someone could crack the backdoor and use it against you. Misunderstood Cow's post.

It died when the value of drugs got nerfed and other reasons. (I didn't care much about growing as I mostly did EMS)

You like completely misread that. In the clockwork gamemode they have back doors in it so they can give themselves admin in the case someone doesn't buy an actual copy of it. They don't put malicious things on you computer...

Sorry about that. Edited my post.

Pardon the necropost, but what's the plan here? The server went down before any of the stuff in this thread was done.
-
We're waiting for an OCRP2 dev to get some things done.
-
Wheres Karma? He was doing rather well with OCRP fixes.
-
Still on his "vacation". I not arguing with his choice, but I think it is a little unfair for him to not at least try and find someone to cover for him if he's going to be away this long.
-

Karma should've been back ages ago. He's still semi-active on the forums.

All he really did was nerf weed and add new cars. If he de-nerfed weed, the playerbase would come exploding back.

His "vacation" is his excuse to sit around his apartment and do various narcotics.

Everything in that statement... so true.. especially the weed nerf.
-
Is it possible that Wake or another developer could finish these scripts if they're not too busy with another project (in Wake's case, likely HRP)? I REALLY want the new map, the OCRP population will skyrocket once more if we push this update.
EDIT: Plus I never got the "junkie" award.
-
I am still learning the lua libraries for gmod otherwise I would offer my help. I have a little over a year of programming experience.
-
I'd kindly like to point out that I am no longer part of lua development at cg unless in case of immediate emergencies when another dev (wake) isn't on to fix it. I've never been on a break/vacation as people like to think, I've just stopped developing right after I was planning on a break. I only stay to maintain various scripts on the website that I manage and to assist in mass changes like the recent database change.
-
I offered Alaskan my help in setting up the map(NPCs, spawn points, etc) but he said he'll find someone.
-
Im still working on things, but if I find the time, I could forward some form of help possibly....

So is he still finding someone, or has he gone typical Alaskan on us and "gone AFK", so to speak?

That would be great. If we can assemble an A-team of devs to work on this...

I find it so hard to understand code -_-. Anything but code i'm fine with. I got solid A/A*'s in ICT and also computer studies :/

Understanding code is the easy part.
It's writing your own from sketch that is difficult.

Back to the point here,
We already have everything we need to revitalize OCRP. See?
- We have the devs needed to finish this update.
- We have the code we need to de-nerf weed.
- We have the scripts ready, just waiting to be edited and applied.
- We have all of the new content.
All we're really waiting on is Rofl to hurry the fuck up and pick a dev to finish this, and for OCRP's server slot to have it's connection to the SQL server restored. Statua went through months of work on this map only for it to never be applied? No. If we actually just sit down and try, we could have this out by the end of the week. CG's popularity would skyrocket again, and the OCRP population would come flooding back.
Think about it: CG is basically dead, aside from HRP. Our only unique gamemode is HRP, but even then, Tomasas went off on his own and made Gaydon Servers, which hosts "HarborRP Original". If we get OCRP back up again AND de-nerf weed, BOOM.. OCRP (and Catalyst) populations restored.
-
Think about it: CG is basically dead.
one word
lol
-
de-nerfing the growing of weed will only keep people/ population up for sometime, after people get enough money/buy everything/cars the population will die down as theres nothing to achieve anymore. As far as CG is dead, its getting really old for people saying it, as its far from dead. And we already stated that OCRP is needing a new Dev to get the updates out and etc. Till that happens nothing is going to change sadly.

I can set all that stuff. Basics.

Woohoooooooh new map
