Heh. Maybe a gravestone for Assortment of Candy.

Remember, creative input is welcome. I don't want people not to like this map.

How about a wall of shame then... in the basement or somewhere

Server Nazi
Bossman
Candy

ect...

That's still givining them some credit so I would say a BIG NO on that.

it sounds like its comming toguether real nice. if you need any testers i would be glad to help..i tried doing maps woth that sh*t but it keeped on crashing so i gave up. good luck with it though.

[Chris82]

Alright, here are some early devshots.

Door to Shadow's office:


BoSS donation money and a random package:


You can't have an office without something to eat/drink:


Shadow's desk. The PC is on the BoSS website, of course:


Pressing the keyboard will turn off the PC:


So will breaking it:


Remember, these are early devshots. The map is nowhere near final and map effects like cubemapping and lights aren't applied yet.

[Cleric]

That is sick how you have the boss forum on the computer in the game. Can't wait to see what it looks like when it is all done.

Keep up the good work!

[Tyler Durden]

Looks great, but you need to have some signs like one above Shadow's office that says something like "Shadow's Office" or some sh*t.

[Mandraque]

nice....i just tried making a map right know(a simple one) but the bots keep on running into the walls and stay there.........thats just weird.

[Chris82]

Yeah, you need to create a .nav file. Usually when you play with bots for the first time, it'll create one for you. You can fix it though somehow.

Do what I do when I'm lost...search the Valve Developer Wiki.

So is that lower level in the final picture the basement as viewed from shadow's office?

Little random thing, if you can throw in tickets or something like that on a desk somewhere that'd be cool. Have em' be to Billy's porno shop or gentlemen's club. Something like that.

[Mandraque]

the more i venture into this program the more complex it gets...thats for the site...i dont remember it auto regenation the first time so im going to try manualy starting it up. if that doesnt work then ill learn how to do it form scratch..



EDIT- woo 150!!!! yay!!!

No, that's the downstairs (main level) The basement will actually be dark, mostly metal, and solely lit by computer screens.

[Mr. Sticks]

I can't wait to see this map when it's done. I will brainstorm and try to come up with something creative to put in the map, but everything you guys have suggested sounds awesome, from the bar, to the basement, to the titty bar tickets.

[XxInColdBloodxX]

Wall of Fame FTW

[Chris82]

Yeah, I'll create all the textures tomorrow.

Soz...

Signs being made include:

The BoSS
DarkShadow's Office
Admin Booth
Lan Center
BYOC Table
RogueAlly's Bar
Registration
Hidden Area (hint hint)
Tyler's Fight Club
Basement/Server Room

Areas of the map:
The BoSS
DarkShadow's Office
Admin Booth
Lan Center
BYOC Table
RogueAlly's Bar
Registration
Entrance
Hidden Area (hint hint)
Tyler's Fight Club/Basement/Server Room

Expect the final map to have all the goodies of a custom CS map: new textures, models, interactive static and phys props, and, of course, the ever-popular upstairs-to-basement elevator.

[Mandraque]

nice. sounds like you have a lot to do for now....and my map worked, for some reason the game didnt automaticaly do the .nav file...after playing it i realized i dame it way to big....

[Tyler Durden]

I'm liking it. I'm getting very excited to play it. I would love to help, but I suck at this kind of thing. So, actually, it is probably better that I am not trying to help.
You're welcome.

[Chris82]

Alright, more devshots today.

Yesterday I forgot to post this picture from inside Shadow's office.

New plasma TV:


Alright, so here's the wall of fame. I can add graphics to it and do whatever. if anyone wants a change, tell me.


Inside the unfinished Admin Booth a.k.a the bunker:



Behind the bar in the kitchen. Beer, soda and chips are the choice foods at the BoSS Lan Center.

[Tyler Durden]

Looking awesome, man! I can't wait to see the finished product.
