Title: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions
Post by: YankeeSamurai on May 07, 2011, 05:17:29 PM

Post any bugs, glitches, additions, or suggestions to the City 45 v2 map in this thread.

IMPORTANT MAP MODIFICATIONS:
1. There's a lot of unneeded hallway leading to the former agility room.

KNOWN BUGS/GLITCHES:
1. Windows in trainstation checkpoint are missing glass textures.
2. Combine watchtower in plaza does not collide with props.
3. Walls disappear when one stands in certain areas of the map.
4. When one stands next to the rails in the town square, players disappear. (fixed?)
5. One is unable to see citizen playermodels through the windows of the plaza shops. (fixed?)
6. Apartment A4 has a bad leak/ nodraw in the corner of the bathroom.
7. The D6 shop window is missing its bullet impacts.
8. Lots of "cracks" and "seams" in the map, especially in the UCH.

GAMEMODE SUGGESTIONS:
1. Ticket purchasing system to ride subway.
2. Fix the un-lockable doors in the CWU building. (?)
3. Players aren't able to spawn mattresses. (confirm?)

Post any bugs, glitches, additions, or suggestions to the City 45 map in this thread.

MAP MODIFICATIONS:
1. ADRENALINE needs a dedicated medwing in the Nexus.
2. (suggested) LEGION, RAZOR, GEAR have their own dedicated rooms as well.

Space is limited but I'll see.

KNOWN BUGS/GLITCHES:
1. Doors are unpurchasable.

Gamemode - Raiden fails @CCH

Quote

2. Reported texture misalignments.

Where?

Quote

3. Windows in trainstation checkpoint are missing glass textures.

Will look into it

Quote

4. Long window in shop does not show bullet impacts.

blockbullets brush inside of them. I tried removing them but it broke ALL DOOR FUNCTIONALITY.

Quote

SUGGESTIONS:
1. Dedicated CWU office.

Something I'll look into

Quote

2. Perma-propped vending machines, trash cans, barriers, etc in the streets.

Vending machines are gamemode, else, I can do in map.

Quote

3. Ticket purchasing system to ride subway.

I can do a basic thing where you can press a button to get access, but losing tokens too? hm. Not something I can do.

Title: Re: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions
Post by: YankeeSamurai on May 07, 2011, 06:02:31 PM

Suggestions updated.

I don't know the locations of the texture misalignments, I'll hafta ask around.

I wonder if the subway ticket system could be worked out in gamemode...?
Or maybe not an automated one, but instead, for example:
A CP makes citizens apply in the upper station, searches them, and checks their records. If they're clean, they are given a ticket (ex: a dollar bill from the CS:S Assault proplist) and proceed further down, where another CP takes their ticket and lets them through a checkpoint.

Um the bottum floor (Basement?) of the CCH, there's a part with the stairs that has a random gap that just leads to nothing. Even though you can't fall through it, it looks ugly. Also, the Overwatch tower across from the Nexus isn't solid to other props?

Title: Re: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions
Post by: YankeeSamurai on May 07, 2011, 07:29:39 PM

I think I know what you're talking about...
Updated.

EDIT: If anyone knows locations of misaligned textures, post them. Also, if any of these bugs/suggestions are dealt with, post the modification so I can update the list.

Title: Re: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions
Post by: Bromine on May 07, 2011, 08:29:42 PM

I reported a misaligned texture at the left of the nexus side entrance, the windows with the grey stuff blocking them, you can see part of one that gets cut off by the Nexus

Title: Re: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions
Post by: lemonshit on May 07, 2011, 08:57:19 PM

Suggestion: Put a small blue light on the Overwatch Tower because I've seen a lot of people fall to their death because they didn't see the ladder and fell.

Title: Re: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions
Post by: Col. Avalanche on May 07, 2011, 11:32:03 PM

I found a few. There's a spot where you can stand on C45, where the 45th apartment building will have some walls disappear, and until you leave the spot, they will remain invisible. There is also the bug where you can't buy the doors in the 45th apartment building. Also, in the town square, when you stand by the fences, all people become invisible.

Title: Re: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions

SUGGESTION

I believe there should be more combine props around, and maybe a hardpoint or checkpoint on the way to sector six.

Title: Re: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions

Foto Shop has horrible optimization theres a big pitch black area right beside a fucking light in the corner.

Foto shop window is useless you cant see anyone out side  causing everyone to fade off.

The railway up to the top of the CHANGE shop need to be bigger cause of the fucking doors being as long as the current one causing issues getting in

There is no v3, only v2r2, maybe v2r3. Neither will there be a set release date. Any mapper will know it's impossible to set one.

@Adam, I know of the light issue, I don't know WHY it happens. Added more lights anyway.
Second issue is due to vvis. Will work on fixing.
Third issue is also being looked at, though I'm not changing the geometry.

IMPORTANT MAP MODIFICATIONS:
1. ADRENALINE needs a dedicated medwing in the Nexus.
2. CWU platform needs to be wider because when the door opens it blocks the stairway.
3. Dedicated CWU office.

KNOWN BUGS/GLITCHES:
4. Reported texture misalignments by Nexus side entrance.
5. Windows in trainstation checkpoint are missing glass textures.
6. There is a leak at the top of the staircase leading to CCH floor A.
7. Combine watchtower in plaza does not collide with props.
8. Walls disappear when one stands in certain area(s) of the map.

14. Doors are unpurchasable.

SUGGESTIONS:

16. Ticket purchasing system to ride subway.
17. Decorate the City Administrator's office more (red carpet, posters, furniture, etc).
18. Many doors are unopenable and have combine locks on them. If they actually led to rooms/shops, that would be amazing.
19. The D7 warehouse is missing its door text, as is the Diordna plaza shop.
20. Separate command rooms for LEGION, GEAR, and RAZOR.
21. Put a small light on the Combine watchtower so units can see the ladder.

8. Visibility checking in source. Will try to solve. Possibly fixed in latest version.
9. See above

13. Fixed
14. Fixed
15. Will do.
16. Possibility.
17. Will do. Done.
18. Requires geometry editing. In this map? That's a tall order.
19. Gamemode related.
20. Once again, Geometry. I shall try for GEAR though. Added gear room.
21. Will add.

It's not about length or how the name sounds, why does that even matter? I'm not actually a mapper, so if I'm wrong someone correct me-
...But the purpose of the map name is to be practical, so people can easily tell the version of the map, for example.

Because with each version addition, it prevents map differs from server errors whenever there's an update, but if you REALLY want me to, I'll unify it.

Oh fuck you VRAD just take a shit on my map why don't you. Not releasing until solution is found for this HORRID lighting.

I don't see the point TBH. Legion is sociostability enforcement - They're meant to be out patrolling, not sitting in a room all day. Besides, what function would it serve if they did have one?

12:03 - I think I nailed the light issue. Running final checks. If everything's good, then the map will be ready. This is your last chance to suggest things.

15:35 - Narrowed problem source to the agility training area. May have to simplify it or get rid of it entirely :(

The spacky lighting that made certain lights fail, along with the medroom. This has been fixed at the cost of the agility room.

Do you mind changing the textures inside the CWU HQ (Second floor change shop aka the place were the doors are as long as the balcony) The current ones are very common id like something different and the doors arch frame inside doesnt match the texture

Sorted. Unless any bugs are found consider any new suggestions null and void. Will do a beta test tomorrow.

I got one for gamemode, Not sure if it's meant to be put here but... We as the CWU need to be able to spawn CWU items. The items that when you try to spawn say "You are not in the CWU" I want to spawn nice things for the CWU... Just saying.

Title: Re: City 45 Bugs, Glitches, and Needed Additions
Post by: YankeeSamurai on May 21, 2011, 10:23:34 PM

That's been fixed already, however players are still unable to spawn some items. Mattresses and bunkbeds, for example (I think).

Mattresses are ragdoll models, so that's why you can't spawn them. Bunkbeds may just not be mounted content.

Some of my friends have been having this problem, and other players have complained sometimes about the lag or DoS, I searched the error up, and thats the conclusion I got to. I hope that you will fix the problem, cause it makes HL2RP unplayable for me at least.
