Description
THIS MAP REQUIRES COUNTER STRIKE SOURCE AND HALF-LIFE EPISODIC CONTENT.

Welcome to rp_downtown_trevvington_v2c. A map designed from the ground up as an innovative addition to the slow-rolling and finely aged DarkRP gamemode. You may wonder what I have added that constitutes the word 'innovation'. Let me show you.

Atmosphere.

Every alley, every nook, every pixel-ridden hole has a dash of development love bestowed upon it. With chosen soundscapes, ambient sounds - a deeply intricate 3D skybox and more secrets and routes than you can fathom, but it is all entirely believable, and that is essential. Some areas naturally, remain vacant and empty for custom server additions to be placed there.

Whether you use this on a server that takes itself seriously - or not at all, it should be a fine addition that players can lose themselves in.

Design.

The map is entirely circular and makes it very clear to force players to encounter each-other. There are no super secret hidden rooms tucked away. Well, technically, there are some...

Players in the underground will find themselves crossing the railway or the drainage room under the fountain.

Players in the motels or hotels will constantly be passing by eachother due to proximity placement.

Police are placed with a solid defensive view of the city, but risk spreading themselves thin by design if they leave the general area, making the slums and industrial area actively more ripe for crime.

Mechanics.

The map boasts a unique set of things that players can do, even on vanilla darkrp. The playground has an interactive tic-tac-toe game; the police station has an extremely in-depth firing range, the power plant has an electrical maze for their defenses - the disposal plant has a human sized cage for those who make poor decisions.

Additionally, clinics and hospitals have healing pods with their vendor windows; whereas most homes and bases have built in shooting windows with a 5-second timer. You can relax knowing that the map itself enforces most server base-building rules, minimizing administrative headache.

Fixes & Failsafes.

This map boasts a notable change compared to other maps that don't have the same insight into the DarkRP gamemode. While there is an expectation on good developers and coders to fix things, I've done my best to minimize the need for this. All doors and windows have been made non-interactive for purposes of pressing the interact button and more importantly, lockpicking. To the uninformed, this may make no sense, but to those who remember players being able to lockpick garage doors that are meant to only open from one-side, or lockpicking your vendor windows, breaking them until they were fixed, this solves that. No ownership or interaction with those entities.

Custom events have failsafes so as to not crash the server if players manage to break things. Such as the trains - they will forcefully despawn if somehow blocked.

If you find any issues, bugs or have any beautiful essential suggestions, let me know!

CSS and Episodic 1 & 2. Currently working on minimizing extra game mounting needed.

Next update I'm going to try and pack all the content within, increasing file size, but minimizing other games/mounts needed.

Try playing with certain commands to see. mat_fullbright 0 or 1, maybe the bloom settings? The issue is everyone has different settings so I tried to be reasonable, but naturally, sometimes, extremes happen.

No AI nodes as far as I'm aware to a full compile. This was made for DarkRP and was not tested with any other stuff in mind beyond exploration. You can spawn a bunch of combines and other enemies on the map, but they're not like to start running up and down stairs/ladders.

@INF-ScannerMan

Yeah, kind of the vibe I was going for, but might make it more open if I expand the map later in a V3.

It looks good, although seeing that the whole map is actually surrounded by hills makes me feel a bit claustrophobic, but the rest is fine.

does this need any specific games to work?
