TOPIC: [SSRP] Edited Server 2 Map !!!

ANNDDD after countless hours of hard work, I completed editing the Evilmelon map!
I wasted a lot of my time to edit this just for ZARP, as I have no personal benefits from working on this, and I hope that this gets added soon to make Server 2 more unique and get more players on that server

---

What's Changed:
- Removed EM Servers Billboards

- Added mines near forest area

-Added gas containers behind gas pumps

-Added huge Admin area

-Added TDM Arena from S1 and training area

-Made this part accessible by cars

-Added a train that runs through the whole map, with 3 metro stations...

You can now download the map here.

Really much effort went into this, I'm really impressed to the fact that you made a map for the benefit of ZARP; I hope this will be server 2 map!

Great Job, Hopefully this will be added soon.
Cant wait to do some events on their

OMG GUYZ I TOTES EDITED A MAP TOO!

OMG'S LIKE HERES THE LINK TO TEH MAP

These changes look really nice!

I don't care how much work you put into this, most of it looks absolutely terrible and completely out of place.

We may not need the train since i'm thinking its faster to just walk but it may help to RP.

Sorry if I can not share in the others enthusiasm about your edits, I don't mean this with any disrespect but this is what my impressions were when I downloaded the map. Its a good start but it has allot of major problems that you need to fix before it can be considered for server 2. Mainly you need to address the HDR, the whole map is way brighter then it should be. The other stuff is mostly just map edits.

I made this video to highlight all of the things that I noticed where wrong, sorry I'm not talking in it. Its very late here and I can't use my mic.



If you have any questions about things in the video let me know in this thread or ask me on steam.

Also if people might say this is nit picking, but when it comes to mapping you need to be very nit picky.

Here's what I will fix:
.Mines
.Spaces between walls in metro
.Metro entrance
.Black wall
.Walls and ceilings in train tunnels
.Will extend the train tracks slightly

---

Anyways if I compile the map without HDR I'd have to change the skybox, as it's an HDR skybox... If you can suggest another one (other than militia_hdr) that would be great ...

---

BTW type "buildcubemaps" in console as it renders the lighting or something like that, that way it will fix the brightness thing. Note that you have to disconnect then enter the map again.

---

The part were you have to crouch in the metro entrance only happens in the sandbox gamemode for some reason, try the map in DarkRP

---

I will keep you updated on my progress ...

You can use HDR but you need to learn how to build it correctly. I'd recomend taking a look at documentation on how to implement it into a map. Same goes for the Cube Maps you need to build those as well, becuase by default I shouldn't need to do that.

Oh yea if you dont want to use hdr but still want to use that sky box remove _hdr from the name.

Say that when you put effort into something and you think it looks okay.

Right. The edits you've done to this map are mostly bad and i'll tell you why.

Thanks for the feedback Section...

I'm working on the metro entrance to look something like this

Still not sure what texture I should use...

Chester wrote:
Just because Victor thinks it looks okay doesn't mean it is okay. As others have pointed out in more detail it is far from what any high ranking server would consider acceptable.

Almost everything in the map is perfect now, here's what changed:

-New metro entrances and fixed brightness
-Better looking mine entrance
-Fixed issues in the metro stations (You have to crouch when going down the stairs on sandbox for some reason...)

New download link.

Have fun !!

BOMP

The mine is still an absolute joke, where in the world do you find a cave (for mining, nothing man-made with no purpose.) with a perfectly square enterance with completely flat walls sat up neatly next to a building?

It needs to be in a place you would be more likely to find a cave (in the side of a rockface at the edge of the map for example) and it needs to have a more natural look to it, rough edges, uneven floor, walls and ceiling.

This version of evilmelon is 10x better than the current one, all the little details/edits in this version make the biggest difference.

Hopefully they'll replace the current one with this.

Opinions, opinions, opinions.

You may not like it but I do, that's why there are polls whenever the maps are changed
