I've put a lot of work into this map tonight. Glad to report I only have one small area to build, and then it's all detailing work. Another good news is half the map has already been detailed, so it shouldn't take too long. 2 big tasks still remain: lighting and optimisation. Both will probably take an entire day's worth of work.
If anyone's bored, maybe you'd want to decompile this prop http://gamebanana.com/prefabs/6971 and decrease the scaling down to a regular CSS tree size.
I tried once, wouldn't work so I gave up...
Thanks!

no one cares what u vote for lotus :facepalm:you could craft a secret room underneath the spawn full of insults towards melisa and such. I would vote for this
Using prop_ragdoll with static objects? Not really how the entity was designed to be used.
I tested it with the prop. It had no collision, and I'd rather not abuse the entity that is known to cause severe server lagg to put trees in the map. (Map will have several trees)
Which is why I'm still going with plan A: recompile the model with a lower $scale value.
and this will help with optimization
and if you want good fps you should use the models and texture that comes with the game, and the cheap ones too

WolfRam... You didn't quite understand what I meant, but that's okay.
I have 11 years of experience modding the Source Engine, so I know how to get "good fps". Each prop that will have a fade in/out will be dealt individually. I won't use a specific number for each prop.
Don't you worry!

Alright... just spent an hour fixing the map, and the first leak free compile is done. Now it's all working on lighting, detail and the 3d skybox.
Btw, the FPS is fine. The lowest it dropped was 280, and that was when I stood exactly where the above screenshot was taken.
