Dorm Map Instructions [ READ IT ALL, ITS A LONG READ]

[Toastyking]

Hope it doesn't have problems.

I was gonna make a fairly normal room, but then I just went "Fuck it."

Throwing it back in your face. You guys need to actually compile your maps to make sure they work before you send them to me. Yours does not.

[Toastyking]

I did compile it though, and it worked just fine.

It also seems I forgot to remove the spawn though.

[Beetle]

The spawn is not important.
This is your compile log (spoiler cuz its long)

nothing interesting?

[Toastyking]

Worked fine for me, gonna give it a couple of checks over.

Also I have no idea what is and isn't an error in the compile log, half the time it says something is wrong when it's fine for me.

I present to you your lifesaver:
http://www.interlopers.net/errors

and yes, some "errors" aren't really errors. but a dead giveaway is the word "leak." anyway, this site above will tell you what to do with every error you have.

[Toastyking]

Ah, that's a problem, did not know that props could cause leaking problems like that.

Should work fine now.

should be MUCH MUCH MUCH better optimized than my previous version of tgames dorm room also i added a couch as best i could

i compiled it got 0 errors besides the skybox thing alt+P was just no player spawn ran it in tf2 everything looked fine

[Beetle]

Everyone's rooms check out so far. Good work.

[t00bz]

egad, the only thing i've made so far is the bed.

[OldManJenkins]

Here's LaN's room!

Pretty awesome if I do say so myself.

And here's some pics (taken by LaN, not me):

[Egonny]

That's awesome! How did you place the light/mist/whatever you call it? A custom transparent texture?

[OldManJenkins]

That's awesome! How did you place the light/mist/whatever you call it? A custom transparent texture?

It's actually a prop_dynamic. I believe you can find it under the effects subfolder.

Can i get the next room OMJ? please.

Trilby called it first

[OldManJenkins]

Trilby called it first

Yeah, but Spleenter took the effort to call me up on Steam to ask. Sorry, Trilby.

[spleenter]

Thanks OMJ.

Sorry Trillby

[t00bz]

http://filesmelt.com/dl/ccdorm_room_t00bz.zip

well, the optimizing thing was confusing for me. But i'm pretty sure i did it right. kindasortanotreally.

[Beetle]

the optimizing thing = turning all the brushes in your room into func_details. not hard.

[Trilby]

Thanks OMJ.

Sorry Trillby

S'all good. I can wait.

[t00bz]

the optimizing thing = turning all the brushes in your room into func_details. not hard.

oh.

[Beetle]

awesome addition i made in TgameP's room out of pure boredom.

so i put 4 vent holes in the top corners of his room. If you hit the right one, a headcrab scurries out and into another vent.

edit: Oh, and here's another headliner: If you zip up the wrong file and give it to me and dont notice, your room won't be in the dorm. Here's a way to check, go ahead and try to open the file you gave me... in hammer. the EXACT file.

[the asylum]

Beetle if you wouldn't mind, in my room, could you replace overlays/devitory_logo with these:

overlays.rar

(11.36 KiB) Downloaded 152 times

I improved the alpha channel of my mark, would really like to see it used in the finished build

[LaN]

Wheres my pink room beetle

[Beetle]

where's my payment?

[LaN]

Do Make it my dream room and ill give you a hat

[Beetle]

sry. all payments are made in advance.

[LaN]

Don't trust me beetle

Alright Ill pay in advanced

[Beetle]

Don't trust me beetle

Alright Ill pay in advanced

Its not that I don't trust you, its that I trust myself more.
