Stormy Days

A map for a new zombie gamemode, Zombie Survival, combining the few parts that weren't boring in classic barricading with a BuildFort/Gmod-ish style of gameplay and some focus on teamplay. The SM plugin to play this kind of maps is private for now, but it will be released to the public once enough testing is done and if there is interest/people start producing content.

The layout of the map is fairly simple, with hold points scattered through the map. I had never mapped indoors urban environments (trying to make sense anyway) so I tried a bit for this map and I think the result is alright. The map includes a storm system of sorts, playing sounds, enabling color corrections and toying with HDR via tonemapping and what not.

Among other features, you will find:

- Around 15 or 20 viable spots, most of them thought to be held by a few humans at the very least
- A wide variety of props, each depending on the hold in question.
- Soundscapes
- HDR
- Cubemaps
- A 'weather system' simulating a storm
- A working jukebox
- Two secrets, one of them including a custom torero playermodel
- A big ass plasma TV that shrinks when broken
- A few ballsockets, lights parented to props and other kinds of clutter to ensure that the plugins work :^(|)
- Intro words that rhyme a bit maybe, but english isn't my mother tongue so probably not

ZS maps are intercompatible with ZM and viceversa, but given the focus of the gamemode itself they tend to have many more props. Because of this, you might be able to use them in a normal barricading server, but they might not be equally entertaining. Also, ZS favors verticality in holds/design (for example, holding the bar on the second floor in front of the bus in this map), which is something I'm not so sure can be said about classic barricading so some spots might be outright unfair.
