Description
If you like the music, here's the OST![soundcloud.com]

Also if you'd like to see the photos that inspired some of the areas I've made a little album here![photos.app.goo.gl]

2025 UPDATE: Added a full navmesh around the map, also managed to get pretty much every texture packed properly!

This is the more or less finalized version of that WIP build I uploaded a little while ago, did some polishing and added a bit of detail here and there.

Places From Film started as a complete do-over of a failed map that I borked so hard it doesn't compile in anything other than fast, whoops. It's main goal was to learn some of the basics of Hammer editing and also make small vignettes based on random photos I've taken on film and the like, as well as to play around with creating some novel spaces as well. It's all very dreamlike for the most part, I just wanted to make a barely coherent map where you end up looping back on yourself and crossing over paths from different perspectives some times.

All music in this map is made by myself and is fully excluded from youtube content ID and the like, I don't like the idea of it so I never actually put my music into its database. If you stream or make videos or any of that funky stuff you're all good to go. You'll find most of the music by pressing use on radios and jukeboxes scattered around the map.

Includes such fun features as:
  • Random back room areas for various buildings
  • Weird concrete spaces
  • Hopefully decent music
  • Photo gallery somewhere
  • Euclid weeping
  • Architecture that I just think is neat
  • A funky TV
  • Breakable glass
  • Packed files for your enjoyment
  • NO ENTRY
  • A fairly reasonably large map in general with lots of weird connections between areas

I'm probably going to keep an eye out for any serious bugs and fix em as time goes on, but this is a more than stable enough release so feel free to check it out! I'll probably move on to a new map after this, and I might actually pack and upload that terribly optimized map that predates this one. It's kinda cool in a janky way lmao

Thanks librarian :D

yeah, me neither, I was just curious if it worked tbh, it would make sense that it did but you never know with technology 😭😭

@Henry is a sore loser oh whoops I gotta edit the description, everything should be packed now! I didn't fully understand how to do it back when I first released this one. However I don't know how the new hl2 branch with ep1 and ep1 on it works with gmod, I haven't found any concrete answers online lol

awesome!, also quick question, the map worked fine for me because I installed both before I played, but it says required games: HL2 ep 1 and 2, does that now just mean HL2 cuz they just combined those games into HL2 recently, or do you still need both?

Navmeshes should be packed and ready to go! If there's any portion of the map not meshed, I'll try and get around to messing about with that/ Also, for those of you having weird missing textures in the very dark/black walled areas, I believe I've fixed that now!

Hello everyone! I'm working on a little update to this to add a basic navmesh as well as fixing some missing textures for some people.

@Henry is a sore loser I agree, I'm a sucker for librarian's gmod vids hahaha! Watched it the moment it came out while I was at work, my heart was beating like crazy lmao

@Henry is a sore loser thank you so much! Gm_afterhours is kind of a spiritual successor to this map with a little more of a theme, and I've got plans for another couple photography-inspired maps on the table too

oh i forgot about this comment! yeah. it was at a hard to find spot but i soon found it, amazing map would love to see maybe a "places from film 2" at some point...... it was amazing!

@Henry is a sore loser - since it doesn't have the gm prefix it ends up in the other category at the bottom. Kinda hard to find lol sorry
