I KNOW I'M GONNA GET A LOT OF STICK FOR THIS - I DON'T GIVE A FUCK.

This is it, the whole unedited release of the latest developer version of City 45 for you to do whatever with. Learn, enhance, improve, fix, I don't care really, all I ask is you leave the credits' textures as is and leave them in position.

Veran said to me that if I was to do this, I'd lose my unit at CG but to be quite fucking honest, I haven't played much, if at all in the last two weeks, and my disposition is simply "couldn't give many fucks", so feel free to hit it with a delete hammer.

Things you should be aware of:

• You NEED EP1, EP2, CS:S AND L4D2 to use this. Merge all the game models, materials, sounds etc. into the EP2 game. Source SDK to be run with the EP2 game, 2009 engine.
  
  
• Included are custom models and materials (decals, credits etc.) not related to any of the games mentioned above. Drop them into your EP2 directory.
• Use vbct for compiling, with the following settings:

VBSP:  -notjunc
VRAD: -textureshadows -StaticPropPolys -LargeDispSampleRadius

Map TODO list:

• The nexus front. I began rebuilding it two days ago and made good progress, UNTIL one of the brushes decided to be LOLNOPE and decide to invalidate half of its' face for NO REASON. May require total rebuild again. Replaced nexus doors, however one of the subsections with the hazard markings has a broken face which means the whole subsection needs replacing. NB. This is why I'm releasing it, because the nexus front is a complete load of fuck and REFUSES to work with me.
  
  
• CWU HQ has had NO changes done to it because it was low priority, and the fruit never gave me black prints. If you chose to develop it further, hassle this guy.
  
  
• As of current, the lighting seems to be fine, not fucking up like before. If it does (see: Random splotches of light in an otherwise unlit area), consider removing some func_details.

I might post more later... I dunno. Does this mean I'm leaving CG? No, but I've considered it. I'm moving back to OCRP where I can have more fun.

Enjoy.

Because I'm a finicky cunt, I just had to notice how bad the current EpU and OfC skins are, and how they suffered compression artefacts, among other things. Noting that they shared the same layout as the original metrocop skin, I took the base metroskin, segregated certain areas and started doing photoshop things to it.

As a result, both units now have:

• Green and Blue tinted faceplates
• Reflective eye sockets like that found on regular metros
• Bump mapping
• Envmap reflectivity elsewhere
• Brighter coloured shoulder caps, trouser leggings and other misc. items.
• Camo pattern on the trousers.

In addition, both units' uniforms are tinted very slightly green or blue, depending on if it's an EpU or OfC.




Download.

I may, in future, upload a version WITHOUT the reflective eyes. Depends on demand.

Released here due to positive feedback from select individuals.

Subject: Beatings

<::|| I think I need to rethink about how I go about beating people. Or rather, how I go about deciding what I'll do. Let me elaborate - Earlier today, while on patrol, I walked past UCH, past the stairs. On the railing above, were two citizens. One of them threw a can at my head. I had no idea which of the two it was, so I gave it to them to designate who did what. Once someone was picked, I got them on the wall, told the other one to go away, and then proceeded to tie, search and detain - Except it never is that easy.

The citizen refused to spread their legs so I could perform a basic pat down. After being told numerous times to comply, I thrust my stunbaton between his legs and forcefully pulled it upwards, electrocuting his uh.. private parts. Surprisingly, he still stood defiant. I tried again. He fell on the floor. I would have used this opportunity to search him, but he got up too quickly.

To cut the story short, I eventually got the citizen on the wall again, but then the OTHER citizen came along. It eventually came about that we all were in a semi-major altercation, at one point, I had both citizens on me, however how the tied one managed to hop on, I do not know. I eventually shook them off and managed to severely beat both of them, then swiftly shove them in detainment.

As any unit will know, if you're going to detain someone, paperwork MUST be filled in. Being the only unit 10-8 at the time, this was daunting, because I just dragged two citizens in for Assault Class 3C, Malcompliancy Level 2 and Accomplicity. They weren't scared. I tried various tactics to get them to apply, but to no avail. To this moment, I do not know the details of the two I had amputated.

Since they were both being very cocky, malcompliant and otherwise unruly, I figured it might be just to give them a little treatment. I had somehow got the idea in my head, to stick my electroshock baton in the anal cavity of one of the males, electrocute them, then "cleaning" the same baton by sticking it in the mouth of the other. Needless to say, Cells 1 and 2 will need a good clear out. One couldn't sit properly due to being violated, and the other couldn't speak for what had just happened.

Eventually, I got the order from OfC.522 to amputate. The guy who had his rear sector massacred? He was violent til the end, his last words being [REDACTED]. The other guy? Eh, He let out a moan because he couldn't talk. Sucks to be him.

That's just one half of my day. Later on, with more units 10-8, I was on patrol. Soon, A citizen purposely walked in front of me, blocking my patrol route. I told them twice to move, both met with a stern "No!". I was beginning to lose my cool. I slapped her round the mouth with my stun baton. She was still doing the same thing. She claimed that beating her would be a "big mistake" ((Side note, her physdesc including something like "is rebellious")). I ask her to elaborate more, when another citizen, this time an american male with brown hair, agrees with the citizen.

It's at this point I radio in for another unit to asist me at the park, and I explicitly mentioned there was a possibility of me being ganged upon. No response. I try again, but as I do, the male kicked the handheld radio from me. As he did, the female kicked me in the stomach, sending me to the ground. I was fortunate enough to have only sustained minor injuries, however I consider myself more fortunate that a City ScN unit was nearby, monitoring the situation. It reported the problem, and pretty much all of the units who were 10-8 assembled upon my position.

The male, who was attempting to steam my baton, was caught in the act, but that didn't stop him from making a run for it. He ran into UCH by the time I recovered full enough to resume my directives, and had gathered the rest of my things. My radio and baton weren't too far away, so I resumed sharply.

The male citizen was regarded as an anti-citizen, along with Malignant. EpU 713 called a sweep of the entire UCH. They eventually found him, in A6, swiftly amputating. After that was done, I resumed SD's. Eventually, I found the female I was dealing with earlier, however it didn't come across to me until AFTER she mentioned she was being chased.

I radio'd it in again about the citizen. No response. Tried again - No response. After this, she started running away ((Side note, she fucking lolran away from me while I was radioing -.-)), So I had to give chase. Unfortunately, I couldn't keep up, and she ran into S2. I notified the rest of the team about the situation, a description and a BOL. STILL no response, not even an acknowledgement. Starting to get somewhat fed up about the severe lack of communication skills, I resumed my patrol. As I walked by UCH, she showed up again. I immediately gave chase, but she ran into S6. Radio'd in an update - STILL NO RESPONSE. I suppose I *should* have done a 10-2, but radio comms were working fine since I got regular updates about the UCH mission, and I hadn't changed anything on the radio.

I started to wonder why I bother radioing anything in, if it just gets ignored. I continued my patrols. Eventually, an 03 shows up and explains to me why they never responded - They were shifting a necrotics canister into the furnace. Now I know they were busy but would it really hurt to just give a quick notification that they're busy? As I explain this, 435 shows up. Even though I'm seething with rage at my colleagues, I still have the decency to salute. They wanted a status report.

Midway through my explaining of the situation, THE SAME WOMAN WHO GAVE ME GRIEF EARLIER RUNS PAST. Needless to say, I, 435 and the 03 were in pursuit, weilding batons. We caught her in the S2 HAP, but she squeezed past and went the other way. Soon after, she vapourised. ((Banned by an admin for constant lolrunning)).

Today hasn't been good, but I suppose that's life. I like to think I try by best and I apply myself the best to whatever it is I do, but sometimes I get the impression I'm only good enough for 04, and that's how it will always be - 04.234, the unit everyone looks down to and ignores.

Oh well. ||::>

As a few of you are aware, We're planning on changing maps. There is no set date, but it will be "soon".

We were going to switch to a day and night compatible version of C18, but the source limits were nearly maxed out, which meant we had no headroom to add various things.

The map's based off C45 v1. There's a dedicated ration terminal, which deals with rations manually. There's also queue lines for said terminal. The nexus has a Judgement Waiver room, along with controls for a checkpoint. The nexus has a new addition for the amputation of citizens. I shall not reveal it.

In the works is a fully fledged conference suite (done). It has a pretty nifty partypiece. Also being looked at, is a shooting range, agility course and Breaching rooms. All of this is located underground.

AFAIK The move will be RP'd somehow. I just don't know when or how or what.

Map done, several million revisions later.

This really is for the CCA, but the citizens kinda need to know too.

What are points?
Points are a form of marks against a citizen. They can be issued for any offence, major or minor. They are issued by the CCA, either at the time of the incident of afterwards.

What happens with points?

Points are semi-permanent. At 5 points, you will no longer receive rations. At 12 points, a Level 2 Verdict will be performed. At 20, it's the death penalty.


(This is all I got for now. Subject to change)
