I have made a few changes to the bsp for my map called urban!

Changes from version 3 to version 4 are so far

1

changed the smaller buildings in four even smaller ones that have 1 room



2

Put a wall around the map with gates that are closed



3

took out the smaller 3 story buildings that where in the corners of the area the buildings are in and put in a forest or destroyed building "not pictured".



A overview of whole map



I know the map is very flat but haven't worked out how to change that yet without redoing the entire bsp! So may just leave it that way unless you can make comments on how to do it.

Any feedback good and bad would be cool and will post more pictures as I get parts of the map done.

Dude. Thats not Urban. Thats Suburban. But nice job, it is a little flat, but ya know....

It is looking better then the previous version, but what of those buildings in the center that had the vehicles on top? Or the bases?

Um Suburban I like that might call the final map that it it ok.



The buildings in the middle cant be changed! Cant or wont say why!!!

as for the bases might change them to get poly count down.

See tool output

structure bsp "levels\urban\urban"
BSP has 21665 nodes, 11686 leaves

please create the rest of the insides of the buildings(second story,walls, windows, etc.) it would make it a little more interesting for slayer and stuff

Kiwi doesn't understand what the tool layout means except that the map seems like it will be a little over 6 MBs without debug information (whatever the hell that is).

Though in the previous version you had all the weapons clumbed in one room and a whole bunch of empty rooms, avoid this, scatter the weapons around or at least put some scenery in each room.

As i said in the forum for the version that made it here it was only a test of the bsp to see if the layout was alright it wasn't meant to be released

I have made scenery for the other rooms of the bases but havn't got around to making some for the new buildings.



I would like to but I would also like to be able to play the map!

I have a crappy graphics card and with the number of polygons that are in the map I am getting lag and parts of the bsp vanish! lol

But what is not shown in the screen shots is that there is also a underground part to the map. Also the inside area of those two buildings already contain something but wont say what.

I may have a way to get around this but it will take a lot of work. Ill do a few tests and post if my idea will work.

What's with the pelican?

I don't think it has the pistol itself, it's like Yoyorast's mongoose, it's the weapon you're holding.

Kiwi figured (the ammo counter gave it away) that but he's never seen a pelican like that before.

That is correct I have not had time to fix it as the pelicans are not final in the map anyway!
