You, I, and others struggle with FPS once you start to dabble anything more than just a couple vehicles and a simple gunfight unfortunately

I really do wish I could figure out the best way to optimize the map but I don't really play Gmod a lot anymore, Especially like I used to years ago.
Maybe sometime soon I'll get that itch to hop on Gmod and try to fix it.
Or make a new map

Thanks for the appreciation! I'm surprised this map got as much love as it did.
It took me a couple months to make this map and never thought it would get as many positive ratings and comments as it does.

But honestly in response to the performance issues, I lack a lot of understanding on deep optimization in hammer editor maps.
I remember when making this map watching tons of tutorials on things to do to help with that very issue.

I did almost everything I could. In the beginning there was probably twice as much environmental props than there are now (Trees, rocks, bushes and so on.) due to the performance impact.
I also intended to add many more buildings and stuff around the map to make it feel teeming with atmosphere and not empty.
However I kept running into issues with hammer editor itself crashing compile errors preventing me from adding anything new.

Underrated map, really well done, but I wish there was a more optimised version so the map lags less during NPC fights and vehicle chases. Maybe remove some of the trees? I have an Nvidia 3070 GPU, and have about 150 mods installed

@spectre
What's your PC Specs?
What mods do you have installed?
maybe something on your end is conflicting with itself?
Check your console when playing the map.

I don't experience the issue.
And haven't heard of the problem with those playing on my server.

There's some fps drops looking at the center of the map.

@GirthQuake: Okay, thank you, i'll try it

Thank you all for the support!
I honestly didn't think i'd get this amount of attention and love for being an amateur map maker.
I truly do appreciate everything. It makes me feel a certain type of way

@Kirin77 Try typing "Buildcubemaps" into console
Maybe that'll fix the issue?
I've noticed sometimes there's shadows for props and playermodels, and sometimes there isn't.
It's weird.
I have screenshots of shadows working, and sometimes when i play the map they aren't showing

I really like this map, unfortunately my playermodel didn't have shadow/dynamic shadow :((

Thank you for the cubemaps in this map. It's not always I see good cubemaps in gmod maps so it's always really nice whenever I see it

wow.. it's so girthy..

"making subpar maps since 2011"


- is one of the best maps ive played on. breakable windows, bro? high quality assets? in game nusic that isnt jarring? working doors? (apparently thats a bar for some mods..)

11/10 maps always get called subpar by their creatirs, man, i swear.

The server just has the basics.
ACF-Sprops-Wiremod, some essential building tools.
and some guns and bombs and what not for those that want to have a war with each other.

I'm hosting a server
everyone feel free to swing by

Just type
connect 45.61.170.54:27015
into your console by pressing ` in the top left of your keyboard.

I'm open to recommendations on addons and what not to the server (within reason)

I like the way this looks.

if you're enjoying the map, don't hesitate to leave a thumbs up
It doesn't cost you a thing

@Natplayz Everything i used is packed into the mod itself, you shouldn't need to install anything.
I just listed credits to the ones i used models from for my map.

If for some reason you see black and pink checkers or something, just let me know and send a picture
