I have HL2 Ep2 Installed and activated for textures and I still see errors

Thanks, I wish I could edit it better, HDR, more detail, etc. but I lost the file when I was transfering to a new computer. I plan on releasing a rather large fantasy map very soon but it will be on land (more detail and HDR). Again, thank you I appreciate it.

For a first map. it looks pretty nice.

I was having trouble with the updating thing. I tried figuring out what the issue was, and updated the map several times, but nothing seemed to occur. I made a 3d skybox, fixed up the rough parts on the islands, etc. but nothing happened, and I do know I was updating it the correct way. it right. So, i'm deciding to probably make another version of the map, fixing it up and adding details. Thanks for the feedback, its appreciated.

You should either make or use a custom displacement texture, of just paint the alpha channels because right now it's not really the best when the entire surface is all just grass.

You should keep updating the map.

I didn't add stuff like furniture, pictures, etc in case somebody wanted to decorate it themselves. Also, can you see the 3D skybox in the map? I tried updating it a few times but I can't seem to get it to work. Thanks for the positive feedback as well, I appreciate it!

it needs stuff in the houses

Jiowe this map looks great good thing i own hl2ep2

Ok, I just didn't know if you wanted to pay for Ep. 2 and all that. I've seen so many comments on workshop maps that claim how frustrating it is to buy the games for gmod content and etc. I just wanted to be ready for that.

Jlowe3, there is a legal website that has hlf2,hlf2 ep 1 and 2 and cs s and cs go conntent for gmod, so there is no worries ^^

Sorry, yes you do need Episode two. There should be some texture/model packs on steam workshop, but i'm not sure if they are still there.

do you need Episode 2 from half life? Beacause i can see pink black textures all over:( please help

Thanks Envy!

wow! and for your first map?
AWESOME!

Please, take all the time you need! I'm just glad that an author of a workshop item replied to my comments, let alone edit the map!

I'm not sure why the skybox wouldn't be showing up. I added quite a bit to the map, but i'll try and figure out what the problem is. Sorry for the inconvenience!

You had me screaming with joy when I saw this updating on the menu of my Garry's Mod. I'm not completely sure what you added to the islands, but it does look much greener, some of the ground feels like it's been smoothed out and the lights do seem to be a bit brighter. It reminds me of a small, homely town just out of the city and in a nature reserve. I just really wish I could find that skybox that you added in (which I hope I'm talking about the correct one otherwise I'm a bloody idiot for not doing my research correctly...).

You're an absolute trooper mate. And please, do take as much time as you need. There's no rush at all!

I'll try to make a 3d skybox for this map Lambalot. I'll also see about getting rid of some of the displacement problems as well.

Thanks Toy Chica!

I love it! its now one of my fave maps! thanks :)

Well I'm glad that I made you happy in one way or another! As for the skybox, there is one, don't worry, haha. I should of actually said that, from what I could see, no 3d skybox. Again, this isn't a huge issue at all, but rather a very small suggestion that if you wanted to add one in so that players have an option to edit the background to whatever suits them. Something as simple as a few clouds does make that much difference to help it stand out. It's still a very good map with or without it, so if you do feel like editing a 3d skybox in, it'll only make me love this map even more!

Thanks Lambalot! That means a lot to me, I didn't excpect to get a comment as complimenting as that! The skybox issue, do you mean theres not a 3d skybox? Or, are you saying there is literally no skybox? Because that would be quite a problem!

This is a wonderful little map and I can see myself using this a lot in the near future. There does seem to be a few parts of the map that aren't connecting, but they are very small and almost unnoticeable. A skybox would of also been a lovely addition to this map, for a chance to edit the background, but this doesn't bother me too much. It's still a great map and the fact that it's your first makes it even better. It has heaps of varity on what you can do, lovely detail to the houses, plenty of room for models and other props, heaps of different houses with different rooms and small forrests that gives it an almost homely feel. This one is a keeper for sure and I can't wait to see what other maps you may think of making in the future.
PS: Saw the two little 'tower' like buildings under the island with the dock.
