Aftermath Night and Day

Aftermath Night and Day includes the two sequels to the post-apocalyptic roleplay and build map, Gm_Aftermath! Set in a freshly updated and newly detailed war-torn landscape, Aftermath Night dims the lights on a wide variety of environments, from a muddy marsh to city streets. Inky darkness is broken only by the flickering glow of gas station fires, train headlamps, and broken traffic lights. Will you shelter yourself from zombies inside a derelict factory, or soar above the landscape in a creation of your own? For those scared of the dark, Aftermath Day is also included in the download and features an identical landscape set in the cool, foggy blue atmosphere of the original Aftermath.


CURRENT VERSION: Release v1_0

Map Features and Improvements:

-Huge map size; great for Build, RP, and more.
-AI nodes in most areas, and a NAV mesh for NextBot-based NPCs
-New locations, including suburbs, downtown, a trailer park, an airstrip, and more
-Tons of new buildings in existing locations
-Visual enhancements to most areas of the map
-An improved, fully operational train
-Better rocket launch and other easter eggs
-Highly optimized for performance
-Both Day and Night versions included

Requirements:

-Half-Life 2

Theoretically, the map does not require HL2: Episode 2. The skybox issue is unrelated, and is due to EP2 adding some HDR skybox textures. You should be able to play the game just fine with only Half-Life 2 mounted.


About the Development:

An update to Aftermath has been long awaited, and after many years I'm proud to present the community with the new version. I have not had nearly as much time to dedicate to mapping as I once did, but I hope this pleases those who have been anticipating something new from me.

This is the official Version 1_0 release of Gm_Aftermath_Night and Gm_Aftermath_Day. I do not plan to update them further. However, please feel free to report any bugs or issues, as I will try to fix these occasionally.


ATTN - PURPLE AND BLACK SKYBOX FIX:
If you are experiencing a purple and black skybox, try the following steps to correct it:
-unmount EP2 from Gmod
-restart Gmod
-remount EP2
-restart Gmod again
-uninstall and reinstall the map
The issue should now be resolved. If it is not, please leave a comment with as many details as possible!

Known Issues:
-Particle effect for sewage pipe are broken for some players
-Some shadows in are flickery in Aftermath Day
-Some textures are inconsistent or misaligned in Aftermath Day
-Train sometimes gets a little violent on turns, especially when changing directions

Special Thanks to Bizzclaw for his work updating the NAV mesh!
