Exactly, I made a reference to delusion as well about the way he did things. He put his name in the fan in the spawn as well and you can't even notice it! Thats how things should be done.Quote:

Hmm guys if you need someone to ''test'' your stage, i'm not the best surfer but i would like to see them sooooooooo: add this mofo > dtox17
today im going to change the second half of my level completely ;3, it will be kept inside with windows but will keep the big curvy ramps in some way :). i fixed all hollow cylinders, took out all outside shit so no more sphere at end, and wall lights are now diamonds :3
I think we should not put our names on our levels, but have them in spawn and we can design them our own way. Think surf_legendary, that spawn is p epic and its probably my favorite spawn. It gives the feeling of "damn this map is gangster" every time I play it. However it doesnt have to be a long corridor with our names on the side. It could be a dome with everyone having an x by y brush on the perimeter to do whatever and have some epic spiral staircase in the middle to level 1, or it could be a few stories with each floor having two sides that each person can design their own way. Like it's split down the side and there are giant staircases to each new floor and finally the entrance to one. That's actually a really cool idea and we could make some crazy things.
and everyone' style is different enough that people will know who's level is who's.
I really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really want to do this
We also need to realize that we have nine people making stages. That's a lot of brush work going on. We're going to have to optimize like mad if we want the quality the map needs.
.
Yes I also think this is best.Quote:

Well actually mine is relatively low! :D
***LEAK FIXED*** :P
That's my stage DONE AND DUSTED!
Another Skybox suggestion: http://www.fpsbanana.com/textures/1522
Another good one: http://www.fpsbanana.com/textures/1087
So my suggestion to what gorgeous posted is.
Have a spawn like surf_legendary. In there there will be everyone's name, similarly like legendary but...
under each name will be a portal to the person's stage.
So the game play can be as follows:
Everyone spawns and gets to pick whatever stage they want to surf. If they can't beat it, there will be a portal back to spawn where they will be able to pick a different stage. If they do beat the stage, they will be teleported to the spawn and will be able to pick the next stage which is going to be whatever they want (and obviously they wont be able to pick the one they already beat). Once they beat every single stage this way, they will be teleported to end etc etc.
So we can have a "majestic" spiral stair case to the top and each floor will be some persons stage with their name above the teleport portal. This way stages won't be known as stage 1, stage 2, stage 3, they will be known as "stage mapmakername" etc.
Or maybe the spawn doesn't have to be a stair case it can be something else but with the same idea. This way the map maker doesn't have to whore his name in his stage.
For this we would need a truly amazing looking spawn because people will be revisiting the spawn so many times, and maybe even hanging out there.
I also made a fully functional sudoku puzzle in css sometime ago which we can put into the spawn just for the hell of it for who ever wants to solve it (if it fits of course because of the max planes).
[img_dim width=300 height=290:23ekjs85]http://i38.tinypic.com/2598g7t.jpg[/img_dim:23ekjs85]
but thats if people want, i dont care if we put it in there or not. Im just suggesting it so there will be something to do in spawn.
what do you guys think?
Fucking great idea untouch ;D I'd love to see that sudoku puzzle in spawn : o
That idea is awesome untouch.
LOVE IT UNTOCHABLE, ima make a sketch of this idea of what spawn could be with a big dome and the staircase :P then ill post it here ^^
I hope who ever designs the spawn in hammer makes it "majestic" or just awesome looking.
I already made the map system work in hammer so every player will be able to play whatever order stages he/she wants.
Great looking stair case ideas:

I personally like the second, but that would be way too much walking up =p but everyone would have their own floor LOL. just some ideas =p
third one
A gigantic I MEAN BIG spiral staircase would be fucking sick. With something crazy all over the walls.
Have the makers of each level's name under the level to choose there level~ best idea
Then we can add peoples names around the spiral staircase
wow this is turning out to be fucking amazing
good job every-one
hey if you want a different texture pack for the numbers throughout the map or in the sudoku puzzle you can use the ones i made
http://lodyblokady.com/?p=24
;/
ill post a list of what i dont like
dont take it personal
-the colors dont flow
-it doesnt have atmosphere
-portal brushes are weird looking and dont blend
-its going to be hard to integrate an outside spawn with stairs/dome because of the clipping
-the entrance to the dome is just what... you can see the end of the earth.
i might make one this weekend
notfinaltexturesnotfinaltexturesnotfinalANYThING.. ..
i dont love my spawn so someone else can make it. :3
dont give up man ;) u can do this.... u got viking blood in you, vikings can build boats, i bet u can make a great spawnQuote:

im creating this epic thing right now... VIKING BLOOD... ill post it later
YEAH, BEAUTIFUL! btw, if we end up having a lot of stages, small stages, combine som of them together to make a longer, more enjoyable and neverthelss creative one. Cause i personally hate those smaller ones with 1 line of ramps. If i see anything like that as a final project, its definetely going to be combined with something (IT'S AN ORDER).Quote:

I'll be happy to do it ;) I have some experience from surf_animals surf_syria and surf_thembrium, so I guess I can pull it off, besides I have way too much time on my hands. So count on me if none else wants to.Quote:

its not fail... its just taking some time. Why don't you guys message them and tell em to hurry up?
ive done that :3
Ok well lucky-charms or someone when you get the chance can we see what we have to compile? Such as levels and jails
Is this ever gonna get finished? If lody isn't making a stage then we have to replace him. I'm not sure if ryan is still making a stage, I'm trying to find out now.
i wanna test all the stages x]
idk the status anymore since lucky scewed us. We no longer have a jail, spawn, or one of the levels.
Ill be more than happy to make a sexy spawn but jails Are not my thing;pQuote:
