TOPIC: SSRP - My Bank Rework - Leave your suggestions!

Hello ZARP gamers, I am currently overhauling the bank and whilst I am still working on it, adding my touches to it and such, I thought I'd give the community their say in what they'd like to see at the bank. This isn't a thread for other areas so put those elsewhere .

I intend on not keeping the bank raids limited to within the vault only so there will be more to add onto the top to utilise further defence strats in bank raids.

Here's a couple screenshots and a video, this is very incomplete and is not near finished yet:







There is a ladder here so the balcony is more accessible to all, I may add a vent here if that works out fine.




In this video too, you will also notice that I have raised the ceiling up but I do also plan on expanding the vault outwards too. The vent is very incomplete and needs a teleporter hence the noclipping.

the bank is one of the best things about this map, only thing needs changing is a vent being added imo

That marble-esque texture is used too much on the outside walls, kinda suits being used for decoration not walls.
Something about the vent texture is off, maybe have different textures for the bottom and top sides?

We need a bank bankers can rp in too!

-We Run The Banks

Some big opportunities for prismatic banking here

I just want to clarify that Clarky is working on this project primarily for himself. This thread and his project in general have not been brought up to the Community Team and properly discussed yet. Any changes made or promised are therefore not approved or guaranteed to be added to the server. Clarky is welcome to present his map project to the Community Team once he feels like it's appropriate so we can discuss and vote on it as per our usual process. You are welcome to discuss changes to the map on this thread so Clarky can incorporate them into his project, but if his project gets rejected these changes are not automatically accepted for any official map update. Clarky is not working on any projects in an official capacity for the Community Team and cannot work on map updates without prior approval following a formal vote in a Community Team Meeting.

i just want a boring map that every server has

I highly doubt that EMP told you he brought it up to the rest of the team and discussed it in a Community Team Meeting as this hasn't happened yet. Discussing your ideas and projects with one member of the Community Team isn't the same as having it discussed and voted on by the Community Team as a whole.

Martin wrote: No he deadass said to me "do you want to do the bank for the update", i don't see why me doing this is concerning you this much but you do your thing I guess

Why does it look like an average bank on every map? The hall doesn't need to be that big, add custom models or make it smaller. Outer wall textures are horrible to watch, add a warmer yet smooth texture to it. Door to the vault is just copy - paste.

4Kurzen wrote: This is far from the final product but you're not wrong about some points mentioned. The reason why the hall seems huge is because I haven't yet done any interior work to it and also thought it would be much better for gameplay purposes too, if I am incorrect on this then give me some more details as to why it wouldn't work out. The textures will be replaced, don't worry about that.

I never said that I was for or against your project. I do appreciate you spending a lot of time on a map update for the community. All I'm saying is that external involvement in updates should always be discussed internally before agreeing to anything or making anything public. Several other members of the Community Team agree with me on this. You're welcome to continue working on this and gather community feedback, but this will need to be discussed in a Community Team Meeting, before it becomes anything official. I'll make sure to bring this up as soon as the majority of the Community Team is available for a meeting and I'll let you know how it went.

Vault is bigger, moved the entire building back a bit so it's less intrusive on the road, still taking on ideas and suggestions

Hey buddy,

any new recent updates on your rework of the bank?


Thank you for letting me know.

I'm really sorry if this disappoints you or anyone else, I was looking forwards to doing something with this myself, I do still have the files

Buddy, it's not because somebody gives you negative complaints that you need to stop working on your project. You can still work on it and improve your talents. I do get the '' problem '' due that you don't have the '' skills '' to create a beautiful map because you're still learning how to create one. I find it beautiful, even if it takes years from now, I hope one day, I'll see your name somewhere on Garry's Mod.

This was done with the intent of having it added to the server (hence the reason this post was created in the first place) as I was told I could collaborate by an owner but since there are just mixed messages all over, this has really dumbed my motivation down to assist in the map updates and I have yet to even hear back from the CM team in regards to this as I was told I was due a message. I'm still willing to discuss this in a more private manner but I cannot do anything further from here.
