This is one of those things that are destined to fail on the first try. The entire ship is an entity, many entities infact. All are set to move with the hull which is a func_pendulum set with properties from my test chamber where I ran multiple tests to get the effect working properly. Thing is, I've got no idea if it will even allow me to compile the piece of entity. This verson of the tall ship will be for Spirit, a SP version detailed to maximum.

I'm all set to go for a compile though. I just thought to write this up as a laugh for complete failure.

I seem to like modeling now more than mapping with hammer. I thank Captain Terror for giving me some Milkshape 3D tutorials and utilities which helped me get into modeling.

(scaling the size of the railing with the cannon)

dod_favilla should be released this weekend. I'm still looking for a server (dod 1.3) where the map could be tested gameplay wise.

What can I say... 1st journal.

Hello everyone. Names Fold, another older account of mine is F0ld on this site but for some odd reason I can't login on him anymore. Not that I care...

Took a long break from mapping while at other interests and then one day it hit me. Why not combine those interests, thats where the idea of making a map of a tall ship. I love sailing and I own my own boat, albeit a bit smaller than the one I'm working on :P

M/S Favilla, will be released for Day of Defeat, non source. Capture the flag type of map where both teams spawn in the lowest deck still separated from one another. Both teams have to make their way up a deck or two before they can cross fire. The three flags will be located at the top of the three masts. Should be released shortly. While the wait you can set your eyes on a couple pictures:

That cannon is my 1st model ever that I've worked on so dont judge it with haste. I've had a whole 2 hours of experience with Milkshape3D ;)
