Welcome to the quiet city of Araçoiaba!
From the valleys and hills, tranquility will always accompany you!


What is gm_araçoiaba?

GM_Araçoiaba is a map or 3d set based on a city in the interior of São Paulo
It has a square, a main church, some neighborhoods with buildings inspired by real buildings and beautiful land around it.

Tecnic Stuff

HDR and LDR
Cubemaps
"AI NODES"
Max Size Map
All map geometry orignal

The original idea was to create a sandbox map at the graphical level of l4d2 for gmod, for this I chose the city I live in as a base, the map was developed over 3 years, I don't consider the map ready, I intend to polish it in the future

The optimization was done in several ways, fading models and other geometries, I believe the final result is satisfactory given the scale.

Why did you want to make the map?

At first the idea was to see if I could make the center of my city in the hammer editor and I used that to learn everything from how to use the program to geometry techniques etc., however I soon discovered that gmod really doesn't deal well with many models being rendered at once., the lack of a video card in my computer somehow gave me a parameter to optimize the map

I know that the end result could be considered amateurish, but I actually spent more time than I would like to admit on it, my dream of a map that covered everything in the game, when I started the map, in the middle of the pandemic November 2020, I started to get into development in source, and in a way I saw in these projects a way of leaving something forever on the internet.
