Title: [10/24/2011] HL2RP Map Update
Post by: Scratchie on October 24, 2011, 03:40:31 PM: (http://www.catalyst-gaming.net/sigs/cg-hl2rp.png)

Server Update

City 45 has been updated! Thanks to Kaz we now have probably the best looking map for HL2RP. Tomorrow or Wednesday we will switch over to this new map and the updates will be applied at that point. This is so you know and can get the map to be ready.

It includes:
- A whole new UCH
- Reworked Nexus
- Reworked S6
- Daytime Map
- New CWU building
- And more!

You can download it at: http://www.catalyst-gaming.net/downloads/rp_city45_catalyst_x1.7z

Included with this update is the following script updates:
- CWU doors are now properly done so they cannot be owned.
- Dispatch broadcasts are regular via the script every ~~three~~ six minutes, random between three different ones.
- Administrators at any level are able to use voice chat
- Permakill now works without charbanning. For admins: /charpermakill and /charunpk
- Administrative updates. (see admin section)

- Prop costs have been added (at a reasonable price. Largest prop is 11 tokens and thats a crane base.)

I did notice 3 small issues tho, but nothing big unless you run both at the same time.

Surely we can have more than three, cause hearing the same thing around every nine minutes is gonna get annoying.

I'd say either add more or increase the length to at least 10 minutes.

Other than that, I approve :)

Post by: XMasterMoronX on October 24, 2011, 07:13:02 PM: Looks really nice, the only bug that I saw was that most of the Refrigerator doors in the UCH open the wrong way. (left side apartments)

Other than that, it looks awesome. Really like the daytime.

Still getting "Vertex error" with brushes half disappearing if I walk back far enough towards the HAP. Also framerate drops exponentially. (Usually 150+ everywhere else)

Not much of an issue but why would these streetlamps be glowing if they're off? :P

1. Short of putting everything in dev textures, there's not much I can do. It's better than before though.
A cheap fix for the vertex console spam is the following in an autoexec.
Code: [Select]
dsp_enhance_stereo 1 con_filter_enable 1 con_filter_text_out Too many vertex format changes in frame, whole world not rendered
2. They just are. And they're not "off", just the light is hard to see.

On a serious note, sure it's a small price to pay, but, why at all?

Because instead of an asston of props and shit now people will think "Do I really need that couch and that one and that one and that one"

Plus it gives people something to spend tokens on, rather than just going AMAGOD I HAVE 12K TOKENZ Y YOU AMPUTAYTE MEH!!!!!!!!!!
when they have nothing to spend it on anyway.

Post by: GeneralTrivium on October 26, 2011, 05:48:17 AM: Does this mean everyone can spawn props now and you don't have to put in an application for it?

(If so, good.)
