window_beta17 | An Apartment View of Beta City 17

Description
This map has assets that replace base assets, so when you're done checking out the map you should disable the map in the main menu!

I made this map for the "What's Outside The Window" contest by the Hammer Editor Discord Group. This is a finalized version of the map I submitted as the original was plagued with bugs and missing textures. It isn't the map I would've liked it to be, but I think it still fits my original vision.

It's a small little map, so sit in it for about 5 minutes to enjoy it fully.


If you would like the textures and models, use gmpublisher[github.com] to download it, most assets are available on the surface, but some are still packed into the map, so use VIDE[www.riintouge.com] to extract the leftovers from the .bsp file using the Pakfile Lump Editor. (sorry for this convoluted method)

NOTE: ALL CREDIT FOR TEXTURES/MODELS GO TO VALVE, I only made the trash can, trash bag, plate, and window models.






oops, looks like someone leaked the vmf files![github.com]

Ooo Interesting, I will eagerly await it's release.

thank you for the kind words! I found myself walking through the city when testing the map myself.

however, even in this small environment I had a lot of issues where the engine straight up just stopped rendering because there was too much stuff.

it could have just been some weird bug with the map, but I would hate to deal with those kinds of bugs in a larger map.

I am working on something secret though that I think you and a lot of people will be excited about though!

Would you consider making a larger expansion of this map? I love the atmosphere here, I would love to take a stroll through the rest of this building, There are fair and far few Beta Maps I feel properly invoke City 17's Beta "Chicago Inspired" Urban architecture with these brickrow skyscrapers.

i used pakrat for mine and it always worked for me (except deleting textures inside the bsp causes corrupt textures) it is outdated but i had better chances with it than vide
Wontairr  [author] 9 Apr @ 2:37pm 
yeah thats the thing, I tried by using VIDE but barely any of the assets got packed. don't really know why.

you should pack all of the models and textures inside the bsp file, that way the textures that replaces the base assets will only be replaced when you're playing the map, but then gets reverted when you play on another map
