[GERage]

I was thinking of a Facility-style Hammer level.

Anyways, any estimated release date for this level?

[flopperr999]

erm..... to tell you the truth, no, not at the moment. sorry

[GERage]

I guess it was too soon to ask.

This level still looks great, though, considering you were new to Hammer.

I'm trying to help flopper compile this map, but with no luck. Here is the compile log.....

From what I Found looking online, this problem is typically caused by having no entities in the map, but there is definitely one there, in an open space. I'm stumped as to why the rest of the compile looks fine but no portal file is being created.

Just to compare, here is my compile log...

This isn't dead yet, unless this map becomes impossible to compile. I do have another map all set, but I'm not going to give details until Submarine can't be done. I'll give you guys a sneek-peek though.....

[Kode-Z]

Not bad, flopperr!

You should apply to work for Rare!

Thanks!

I'm telling you, we really need to get a brand new, fully customed ROM. Hammer levels, new levels, everything! A brand new ROM! I wish i could participate. I soon as i get my gosh-darn Hammer Editor Compiler working!!!!!!!

[flopperr999]

This project isn't dead yet!!!!!!!!


I FINALLY got my maps compiling!

[radorn]

wow, that room is massive. Won't it overload the game a little?

Oh, it definetly will. I just needed to see if I could compile a map, which now I apparently can. For about 3 months Myself, Wreck, Dragonsbrethren, and BMW were all stumped on why my map wouldn't compile. I finally figured out that i had portions of my commands in quotes....

Now that I found out I can compile, this map is going back into Hammer to be divided into rooms. Then to Crafty, then to the editor. I'll keep you posted!

[flopperr999]

Actually, just re-re-reexamined this project for the millionth time, and I've come to a conclusion. It's not impossible to finish, but I think I'm going to forget aobut this level. It's honestly just built terribly. At the time it was the only skills I had, but now I know that clip this map would talk a few straight days. I'm not willing to do that. Maybe one day I will come back and reconstruct this level better, but until then, this project is "hibernating". I do have another project near completion though, its called Carnage.
