When I used hammer it was extremely finicky and hard to use Since then I've switched to hammer++ it works much better And if you haven't tried you should.the Next time You make a map Try and keep The games required to play to a minimum Half-Life 2 Half-Life 2 ep1 Half-Life 2 ep2 You can also use custom Textures and pack them into the map That'll help quite a bit Your new series of maps probably won't be released anytime soon Hammer takes quite a bit of time to make maps on so take your time.good luck

Hey Skefil! Appreciate the comment! Sorry to hear about the CTD on playing. I have an updated version of this set of maps in the works with a few bug fixes! So keep an eye out for that if you want to play this the way it was originally intended.

map crashes to desktop now, sadly :c

still looks decent tho for amateur hammer skills
Ghostface 5 Feb, 2018 @ 8:46pm 
Would it be possible for you to update it, or maybe fix it?
McGee  [author] 5 Feb, 2018 @ 6:45pm 
This map is quite old now and when I made it, I was very inexperienced in Source, its just a poorly made map. Sorry for the inconvience.
Ghostface 5 Feb, 2018 @ 4:36pm 
Can someone please tell me why there is lag, or tell me how to stop it? It's pissing me off.
Fergles 21 Jan, 2018 @ 7:51pm 
Why is it so laggy at the start
Red Coralian 27 Oct, 2017 @ 8:26pm 
what is it called
Titan 11 Aug, 2017 @ 4:05am 
does the alarm immeadiatly go off when you start the game or do you need to walk around a little trigger it?
D ubge 21 May, 2017 @ 8:49pm 
It's fine, just let us know when it works
McGee  [author] 21 May, 2017 @ 2:40pm 
Probably my lack of skill in the Hammer Editor causing too many things to render at once. Sorry about that mate.
D ubge 21 May, 2017 @ 10:55am 
Have all required assets mounted, and this one crashes Gmod every time. OB2 works just fine, so no idea what went so wrong here
McGee  [author] 13 May, 2017 @ 10:41pm

@Egg, I am really sorry man, I dont know what to say :(
NDMO 11 Feb, 2017 @ 6:52pm 
@DarkBetray Yeah all 3
McGee  [author] 11 Feb, 2017 @ 6:44pm 
@Egg

Unfortunate man :|, Do you own HL2, EP2 and CSS?
NDMO 11 Feb, 2017 @ 6:21pm 
@Darkbetray

I dont use a pc :/
McGee  [author] 11 Feb, 2017 @ 5:47pm 
Yeah man, Really sorry to hear that :(. How are your pc specs?
NDMO 11 Feb, 2017 @ 5:31pm 
yeah...
McGee  [author] 11 Feb, 2017 @ 3:29pm 
@Egg

Alright mate, Have you tried reinstalling the map by deleting the file from your addons folder in the Garrys Mod Directory OR unsubscribing and resubscribing?
NDMO 11 Feb, 2017 @ 3:20pm 
@Darkbetray, there is no console error, and i have tried doing it in a vanilla game before, it still hasnt worked :/
McGee  [author] 11 Feb, 2017 @ 3:17pm 
@Egg

Hey mate, what is the problem? If the map doesnt launch with no error message it might be an addon conflict, try playing the map through on a vanilla game.

Could you please supply an error message or more information?
NDMO 11 Feb, 2017 @ 2:51pm 
@CrownTiger

The map still doesnt work! I played the prologue which was fantastic but i still cant launch this map! Its been a year! WHAT DO I DO!?
NDMO 11 Feb, 2017 @ 2:17pm 
@CrownTiger

Cool! thanks for the heads up!

I am happy to announce that work on 'Our Benefactors' has begun again. The series is never going to be abandoned entirely, there may be hiccups but the show will always go on. Keep your eyes open, the following episode is to be released in the sort-of near future.
Jebodiah Longstroke 29 Oct, 2016 @ 7:53pm 
Okay ;-;
McGee  [author] 29 Oct, 2016 @ 4:33pm 
It is located in the "other" section If I remember correctly. Does not have the "Gm" prefix, just look around in the "other" section and it will be located somewhere there, also thanks for playing.
Jebodiah Longstroke 29 Oct, 2016 @ 3:34pm 
Whats the map called? Like is it Gm_mapname because i cant find it
HeadHunter996 1 Sep, 2016 @ 9:30pm 
@Jonny: Try reinstaling the map
steck 26 Mar, 2016 @ 2:53pm 
My Game is always craching when i try to load the map. Help!
Hexy Wexy 19 Mar, 2016 @ 11:08am 
ok nvm, i finally bought Episode 2 :) thanks anyways!
NDMO 19 Feb, 2016 @ 8:51pm 
i disabled EVERY thing other than map... I think it might be an engine error or maybe a computer bug... or it may refuse to load if i dont have css?
McGee  [author] 19 Feb, 2016 @ 8:02pm 
Try it out.
NDMO 19 Feb, 2016 @ 7:58pm 
ok so ill just disable all my addons then renable?
McGee  [author] 19 Feb, 2016 @ 6:55pm 
Look, don't go to lots of trouble just to play this one map, but I would recommend trying the map on a vanilla game, just to be sure its not an engine error.
NDMO 19 Feb, 2016 @ 6:23pm 
It crashes when it loads help! I disabled my combine retextures, do i need to disable any sound replacments as well?
NDMO 19 Feb, 2016 @ 4:28pm 
mmk... thx
McGee  [author] 19 Feb, 2016 @ 3:45pm 
It is sometimes possible. Any conflicting addons that conflict with combine models/sounds/other things may cause crashing. You should also make sure that your addons arent creating lots of script errors.
NDMO 19 Feb, 2016 @ 2:33pm 
Thanks! Also after i asked that question, i loaded up the map and pffttt it crashed... Could it be i have TOO many addons?
McGee  [author] 18 Feb, 2016 @ 9:08pm 
@Shepard

My good sir, It really is only a few textures, nothing too bad. Other than that! you will be fine! Enjoy yourself!
NDMO 18 Feb, 2016 @ 3:17pm 
@Authors

I know the desc says that i need Css obviously, but if i dont use it, will the untextured parts of the maps be unnoticable? or will it just have a few little errors in the distance like gas canisters and trees... i yet have to buy css so im just wondering
McGee  [author] 20 Jan, 2016 @ 4:06pm 
Hello King of Pigs, this my be causes by a few things.

1. Too many addons, reduce the bloat of your games script errors.
2. A slow pc can cause bas fps as this map has a large rendering distance
3. Your graphics settings are too high, try turning them down.


If the problem persists add CrownTiger or myself and we will help you further.
King Of Pigz 20 Jan, 2016 @ 12:28pm 
can any of you help me i lag alot when i open the map i need to know how to reduce the lag
McGee  [author] 19 Jan, 2016 @ 4:16pm 
Glad people are enjoying it! As a custom I will add the names of creators of prefabs when I have access to my computer, thanks for the support
Guardianofsunshinee 18 Jan, 2016 @ 1:20pm

King Of Pigz 18 Jan, 2016 @ 8:10am
