cCs' Hotel: Download B1 Here

[Beetle]

This is about what I got done since last night. The hot tub in the corner has a trigger_hurt with a negative value, so it slowly heals you when you're in it! It also has custom music\sounds, and a deadly secret.
(That red section in the middle is a rug, by the way.)

That's the best one so far. Keep it up, people.


List updated. I put Artalus as 38,3. I put TgameP as 38,2. If you aren't happy with that, TgameP, just reserve a room later.

Everyone has until the 15th to reserve a room so I can start filling them in before August 1st. This doesn't apply to people that have reserved but I've forgotten to update or missed them somewhere. This does apply to people that just scream "I want a room!" without specifying.

Also I need to say something I said a while back. NO ragdolls. If you want a laggy map, that's the fastest way to get one.

I have a question. How do you want the custom material packaged when uploaded? Do you want it PakRat'ed into our final map, or can we just give you the files packed within a .rar and install it yourself? Thanks.

Pakratting it would be pointless because its going into my map. I don't need the bsp at all. Make any custom content in the same hierarchy as it is now. so yes, put them in a rar but with all the folders still in tact.

[BILLY MAYZING!!!]

I still need someone to make my room. I don't really care who, but it may be tricky.

done before the 15th deadline
if ur names not beetle dont open it

<temptation>

im done with snaps cuz i have too much stuff to put in a few pics. You'll have to check it out when i'm done with it. Now here's a question, putting all the folders in one .rar file...how?

you just build the folders like they already are but only putting your stuff in them. If someone can explain it better, please feel free to.
The underscores are there just to show those are all in the tf folder.

[Beetle]

hax, you didn't need to make a folder named the same thing as your vmf, but it doesnt matter.

From what I can tell, Hax did everything right. I'm going to do a bit of optimization, but I dont expect non-mappers to know how.

edit: I was wrong. You had a 'moustache hat' way way way outside of the map. I'll assume that was an accident. I should have said no custom stuff because I've got 3 rooms now, and they all expect me to have those custom hats.


edit2: I am also going to replace the resupply cabinet locker with regular lockers because everyone seems to be adding them, yet they don't function at all. People expect to be resupplied when going to a resupply locker. If at all possible, I will try my very best to not change what you've made. But its like you go into someone's house and see an uneven hanging picture frame....drives me crazy.

[Tampashrew]

Procrastination is certainly taking it's toll on me. All I have done is the walls and floor textured and a homewrecker positioned at an angle on the wall.

On the other hand I'm still relatively new to mapping.

[TgameP]

Am I an important enough cC member to get a room? If not ignore this post. If so then I'll take room 38 floor 3. And as of right now it seems that haxwettam is making my room since I won't map because it would cause confusion in my life that I don't need.

I've already tried to claim that one. Unless you want to share a room...lol

Sorry Artalus didn't see you on the list so I guess I'll change to room 26 floor 3. I need a corner on the top floor so the window hax is putting in for no reason makes sense even if it doesn't show anything.

[Taedium]

Almost finished here. Having trouble with the button controlling music. Whatever. I'm sick of holding off from finishing because of that.

Final-ish version screenshots:




Features:
-Custom music "The Fallen" by Franz Ferdinand
-2 custom textures
-Resupplying crate working for both teams if needs must. (as seen in second screenshot)
-Healing hot tub (as previously mentioned)
-Couch (also my excuse for a bed. Thats improvising right there.)
-Other stuff.

beetle if u delete the moustache or move it
besure to delete or move the arrows pointing at it

besides its kinda weird how one moustache can take up so much room even tho all of the model is at the bottom

if the moustaceh is to be deleted then replace with a duck althought ill leave that optional

if u do then make it face about 35 degrees x (facing left but more toward who is looking at it)

also optional make the duck be on fire

[Beetle]

If someone needs an example of directory hierarchy then just download Taedium's. That's fine.

[Dreathtil-P-V-A]

Forgot to add me

I will be making my own room and also I will take room 34 on the second floor if possible instead Due to "Tomm's" Idea

Wow sure is alot of people

[Toastyking]

Will be making my own, finally got SDK to work, also how do you scale Decals I mad some posters but they are just huge.


Haven't used Hammer in a while.

Don't use Decals. Use overlays. (the button directly below Decals) They basically work the same way as decals and they are scalable.

Question about the map:Do we kill eachother or is it gonna be a friendly map?

Edit:Also,this is what i've got so far.
Im not done yet.Gonna add a couple more props and signs then work on bathroom.After that ill add some kind of music player.(probably gonna give up on adding music).....

[Taedium]

Beetle, if you haven't already messed with my map, or don't mind getting rid of it, I think I would like to spend a little more time on it. I got tired and rushed it in the end. If you don't feel like redoing any work on it, don't feel obligated. If not, cool. Let me know so I can work on it some more.

I haven't implemented it yet, so feel free.

But just a warning to everyone from now on. No more rooms can be claimed after today, and once you send me your zip you can't come back later and say you want to change it.

Alright, thanks.

[gervangster]

hey there. i would like to ask for room 37 on the 2nd floor

[num yummy]

Can I get room 1 on the third floor?

[Taedium]

Also, if anyone is wondering, I plan to have the hotel haunted. So that koth_harvest_event ghost will be roaming the rooms/halls terrorizing everyone.

For a few especially well-made / unique rooms I will lock the door, and add a corresponding "key" (intel) you have to pick up and run up to the door to unlock. There's some motivation.

There will be no objective to this map other than to find all the secrets and explore the whole map (which will be as big as possible without being laggy).

Feel free to add Work In Progress screenshots to this thread.

So its like The Shining? This hotel is getting better and better. I can't wait!

[Chef]

I'd like to join in this merriment.
Can I please have room 4 on the third floor?
I will at this moment not be making my own map due to the fact that Source SDK has been crap lately, but I'll let you know when I get it to work and begin working on my map.
Should the deadline come around before I can get it to work, I'll just deal with whatever you make Beetle.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

AHH WHY?!?!?!?!?! i didnt mess with any lighting and this showed up throughout the map. I tried what u said beetle by changing the "255 255 255 255" to "255 255 255 500-700" but nothing changed.

[t00bz]

alright, looks like opening day is set right smack on my birthday...
actually not on my birthday
the designs are due on my birthday
whatever

anyways, i was wondering
with all our custom textures and shit, should we include them with our room designs

You have a leak.

[Toastyking]

I feel like mine needs something added to it, it's just.... lacking.

Too lazy to cubemaps for just the room.








I decided I needed captive people, and a ghost.

Currently in map:
2 Custom textures. (the posters)
A custom sound.
1 or 2 custom models. (The anchor, swamp pack. The record player, found on tf2maps.net)
A display of all engy weapons and hats.
Cowering prisoners, except the engy who doesn't give a single fuck, and the ghost.

What else I need?

[t00bz]

hm
i think you need a fireplace
think about all the games you've played which included a king
most of them had a fireplace right?

and when you put that in, you could also put a wrench or something on the mantelpiece.

[Beetle]

Sorry Toasty, but the ghost has to go. I'm making one roam the hotel (hopefully on a zamboni)

I don't know why this is so hard to understand. If its custom, I probably don't have it, so when I add it to the hotel. It won't have it. I need any custom stuff you have, put in the correct place. Read a few of the last pages of this thread please, anyone who keeps asking me this.

My room is pretty much finished:
