Greetings, fellow TWHLers!

Seeing as how I haven't submitted a single map since the 3+ years I've been mapping, here's my first contribution: a drivable version of the Tumbler from Batman Begins! Feel free to hop in (the front of the cockpit opens with "E", and you'll need to crouch) and give it a spin. Oh, and sorry - Korin not included ;)

THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND:
  • This is an EXTREMELY early prototype. Steering is flawed and some features are unavailable. The purpose of this early edition is to demonstrate the accuracy/artistry of my interpretation of the Tumbler, nothing else.

It's for Half-Life 2 (now that the designation problem is fixed I will update it to reflect that).

Onslaught, due to the limited description space, I was unable to put a disclaimer in about the level's low LOD. I built the map that houses the Tumbler exclusively for taking the screenshot, not as a showcase of my mapping skills. As a note to everyone, the map that the Tumbler is currently in was made in 5 minutes at most, and it is NOT the level that the Tumbler will come bundled with when it is finished. The Tumbler, I'm sure you'll agree, is of Half-Life 2 quality - but, not having been able to warn you about the terrible tree-work and terrain, I can understand why you mistook it for Half-Life 1. I will be making some sort of city/road level for the final version, so please don't despair that there isn't a lot of driving room.

To those posting about Alyx....shudder yes, I know that exists, and frankly, I think they've taken this whole Alyx thing MUCH too far. I do NOT endorse nude models or digital exploitation via Garry's mod, and I only put Korin in my screenshot to make a pretend racing poster, where there's always a bikini girl and a fast car (in this case, a jet-car).

Also, here's a list of features I intend to add later (please feel free to suggest any others):

1. Usable rampless jump via the rear jet engine
2. Tweaking accessibility to the cockpit
3. Weapon systems controllable from the passenger seat and sub-weapons controllable by the driver
4. Visual tweaks, such as visible exhaust and fire effects when jumping
5. Custom engine sounds, perhaps custom textures (although I think it's quite accurate as it is).

In any case, I welcome all comments, so please, with the above in mind,...um, comment away!

Ironic indeed! The screenshot doesn't provide ample lighting, so the batmobile's sharp edges and other features along the left-side of the vehicle are somewhat hard to see. I was just trying to fit as much of the vehicle in the picture as possible.

Looks pretty good, but behaved strangely.

Please update this and include the hottie next time! :)

I haven't touched this map lately, and I do understand what you meant by "behaved strangely" - I'm having trouble with thruster alignment. That's one thing I'll be working on once Steam finishes updating (over my 28.8k modem....grr). I'll see what I can do about fixing that, and giving everyone a bigger level to drive in.
