Description

COMMENT BELOW FOR TROUBLESHOOTING ISSUES!!! PLEASE READ "Read Me.txt" FIRST!!!

A basic beachhouse scenery map for SFM purposes.

  • Environmental Lighting [HDR] Added
  • Interior & Hottub Lighting Added
  • Water Displacement Reflections & Bathroom Mirror Reflections Bugs Expected

I ported this map from an Garry's Mod map. (gm_coolhouse)

I removed all the useless entities, fixed textures & errors, and enabled HDR during the final compression. There's static props, environmental lighting, interior beach-house lights, as well as lights in the hot-ttub.

I wanted to make a no-light version, but I honestly spent hours trying to figure it out and gave up in the end.

Invisible Entities: If you're wondering why some rocks, or the tree-logs, doors, mirror, et cetera are missing, just enable "Other Entities" in SFM, by right-clicking your view port and selecting them.

Note: Far as I know, it doesn't require anything as all the maps extra assets are included inside of the BSP, unless I misunderstood how compiling works, the original author said you may need Counter-Strike Source.

Yeah, I didnt port the Counter-Strike Source assets into the map's BSP. Except one entity, which was the "light_security" prop-static from CSS map. If I did that, then the .BSP would be much larger. I recommend having CSS & HL2 installed and linked to SFM's directory, for use of all the Source games' assets.

@MaestroShiranui That's strange, was it a new project, before you loaded a map? And did it crash instantly? Should just be a BSP file in the ZIP that you place into your "maps" folder in "usermod". Not quite sure what could cause that. Might take a minute to load.

@MaestroShiranui I'm still workin' on the map, I mean it's completed, just I want to add more to it. Anyways maybe I will just recompile it, and add the materials & models folders externally to be imported along with the .bsp map file. I feel like it might be crashing due to missing file issues, though I thought I fixed all that stuff... I'd have to check the console again. Lemme know if you fix the issue.

I just added the "basic" version of the map, without the materials/models and other external files when de-compiling the original GM map, re-compiled into it. Maybe that will prevent the crashing or other conflicts.

Glad to have a better Beach map than the one I had found from Garrysmod.org that actually managed to work. Really like the beach house, I'll have fun scenebuilding it at some point for my scenes! :D I would be fully behind anyone interested in creating a sunset or night version of this. I happen to like pre-lit maps in SFM when it can be used an effective fill light with the scene and this one was handled well after I had used it for one.

There was a version of this map on Garry's Mod, but when I ported it I got the same thing, Stuntman. I think it needs CSGO assets, but I could be wrong.

@Deadbolt107 I already have been working on a night version, as well as a no-lights version, but my primary concern is expansion of the map itself, adding additions to the beach/island, as well as fixing the water displacement issues. Not sure when I will get around to finishing it though.

@SnippsTheSlammer I have recompiled a version of the map with a less ugly looking pool, and I would like to give you to update your submission. Believe me, it looks much better and clean. Currently I cannot take any screenshots, but please try it yourself: https://www.dropbox.com/s/cej778cnr0kdu79/gm_coolhouse_better.zip?dl=0

@PatrickGainher , Thanks, I'll take a look at it and possibly submit this one.

@PatrickGainher Yeah, I'm not using yours... ERROR signs where the boulders are.. and the light above the front door. Props missing, that I had made dynamic "Other Entities" with SFM Textures actually missing that I never had a problem with before in and around the outdoor pool/hottub. That plus I have been working on a re-work of the whole map itself by extending it's skybox and ocean, and better beach/shore area... But still having water displacement issues.

@SnippsTheSlammer It seems like I have made an improper porting. Pardon me, but I didn't see that. I will need to see how I will embed files properly.

I'm officially declaring this project as incomplete and inactive, as I never gotten around to finishing it, and haven't worked on it in months. Any errors or issues will have to be directly fixed by those having those particular issues.

I get 3 errors on this, but the map is very usable. You did a reasonably good job porting this.
