awesome work mate! you literraly rethought downtown, although optimization is poor. and timer for start a record... well..

has a camcorder REC popup on screen of map

map causes some camcorder REC to pop up on my screen

Thanks for your reply, I'm working on a downtown edit of my own and I'm always looking for inspiration. I enjoy the map!

As you can see the map revision is 1688 which means I saved/compiled it 1688 times haha

And about tunnel, it a must because of optimization..

Thanks and If I did make it from scratch it would taken me insane amount of time because as is the current version of the map took me over a year to finish, some days I was working on it 8+ hrs a day but some i didn't at all

This map fascinates me. It removes a lot of original buildings from downtown_v2, while adding new structures and bringing the other parts of the map into a radically new context. Some buildings are exactly the same as before, but with crazy new structures next door. I haven't even mentioned how an entire version of rp_bangclaw is just 'thrown in' via an access tunnel. My main question is, why did you make this map an edit of downtown instead of just making the entire thing from scratch?

in downtown the admin room is under the waterfall i think and second admin room is in bangclaw which is hard to find to but its in the middle of the city, above the skybox alittlebit, its located above one of the handicapped sprays in the bigger parking lot

What do I click/go to disable exactly everything and let StormFox 2 run in both cities? or can I just gma the map and disable everything from there that has to do with weather/rain etc?

Yes theres two admin room in each city

Is it possible to remove everything when it comes to rain/fog etc and then add StormFox 2 without anything overriding it?

My point is that you’re not going to do it.

There is a way, by cutting the largest tower and making the skybox much smaller and placing portals as the dude below mentioned

The optimization is pretty bad, I remember leaving a nasty comment about it a while back. Is there much the author can do though? Probably not..

dude it's not normal for me to get 60fps on your map while I get 300fps on rp_downtown_tits_v2. If you put portals on the doors and windows of the buildings, at least the performance will increase. Like I said, the map is beautiful.

ill upload a few sceenshots from hammer soon so people wont qustion me again haha
i tested the map once with 80 or 100 players and spamming many props around the map and the result was my fps got cut by half, i was running with around 50 fps

haha i actually built the optimisation with mat_wireframe, however its not possible to put portals on this map because theres no closed areas, all skybox/roofs are open
theres only very few portals on the map far as i remember, its the swers of corse and the tunnel between two cities
its optimization isnt based off portals, mostly it made up of very balacned visleafs amount and the use of models for complex brushes(like all stairs in map) and the use of FarZ, displancemants, merged visleafs to optimal size, few more tricks

i copied valve's optimisation style of L4D2 very large maps after seeing how they did it

just to let you know, portals arent for large open maps like this or like L4D big maps

thanks for commenting.. haha

Let me put it this way, there is no portal anywhere on the map and all props are rendered wherever you are on the map. If you go into the game and type the command sv_cheats 1 followed by mat_wireframe 1 in the console, you'll see what I mean.

optimisation isnt that bad, dont forget the map is very large which most likely will never render all players/props at once

hey bro map is good but roads is so small and another problem optimisation
if you fix this problems map will be awesome

Карта шедевральная, восхищаюсь ею, однако хотелось бы исходник карты для пользовательских модификаций. Естественно указывая оригинальную карту

The map is a masterpiece, I admire it, but I would like the source of the map for custom modifications. Naturally pointing the original card

Здесь должен быть 1 русский комментарий, что хочу сказать, помойка совмещённая с искусством + немного России и получилась эта карта, автору +rep

Whenever I play on another map in GMOD, it makes a demo in the first 10 seconds of me entering that other map, and the demo it makes is called rp_downtown2020.dem

Any idea how this can happen?

(Yesterday I was idling on gm_flatgrass and it created a demo, me entering that gm_flatgrass map, and the demo was called rp_downtown2020.dem)

When I unsubscribed to your map (rp_downtown2020) the demo creating issue stopped.
I have no keys binded to anything related to recording or stopping demos in GMOD.

Hi, I have questions about your map, accept my friend request

This map is really good, but would it be possible for you to remove the floating waterfall at spawn?

Please read changelog to see whats new in the newest version
