The 5 Content Packs are required as usual.

gm_bora_lightning






Specific features:

* because of these timers, the lightning and the strike do not always match, so you may see lightning without a strike, both at the same time or just the sound of thuders all randomized, adding a plus to the experience giving a not so "scripted" event

Regular features

-Considerably large playable area
-Cubemaps
-Custom Props Models, Sounds & Textures
-Little Islands

WARNING! - You may experience a bit of FPS drops:
This map may be a bit expensive to render due the large ammount of water covering the whole map surface.

Here are a few useful console commands if you find FPS drops to the point of being unplayble.

Enable Multi-Core rendering (for multicore CPUs): THIS IS VERY GOOD TO HAVE!
gmod_mcore_test 1

Disable Refractions and Reflections in the Water:
r_waterdrawrefraction 0
r_waterdrawreflection 0

Disable Shadows:
r_shadows 0

Disable Cubemap Reflections:
mat_specular 0

YOU MUST SUBSCRIBE TO THE CONTENT PACKS LISTED - THIS MAP MAKES USE OF THOSE
Otherwise you'll be seeing lots of errors and pink & black textures. Spawnlist included.

Hi, here's a guide I made a while back on how to set that up, it's the same technique I used on this map (I did the npc-related stuff once FFox had the map in its finished state) :

Feel free to shoot me any questions about it, I know it was a hassle figuring it all out when I first looked into it, haha.

Hi, can you teach me how to use path_tracks so helicopters and gunships can navigate?
