InfMap - Infinite Map Base

A Truly Infinite Map

Welcome to my infinite map, after a couple months of development it is ready for release. This map base aims to provide a never before seen sense of scale in the source engine, allowing for smooth travel forever in any direction! Feel free to build and fly among the planets and stars. The engine speed limit is automatically increased in this map.. so go wild!

If interested, this video explains how it works: https://youtu.be/NPsxeRELlNY

Please Note:

• This map is extremely experimental, do not expect every addon to work flawlessly!
• Before reporting a bug please check for addon confliction and report the issue to the github page
• Any issues or bugs reported in comments or discussions will not be read or fixed, please create an issue on the github page or in the discord instead as they are easier to manage.
• Again I cannot stress this enough, please please please check for addon confliction. I tried my best to keep it as addon friendly as possible, but please trust me.. any poorly programmed addon will cause problems due to how much stuff is going on in the backends of this mod.
• If you wish to see chunk borders and original map bounds (see explanation video to see what I mean) do infmap_debug (0-1) in console, chunk borders are black and the original map bounds is blue
• The default hl2 jeep (and its derivatives) are broken because for some reason when you try and change the position of the jeep it explodes. Don't blame me, blame source.

This is cool! What if I want to make my own infinite map?

Alright, first thing I can say is to watch this video. It explains how the map works and what is happening behind the scenes Second thing to note, worldbrushes are a bit jank on this map due to how it works (see video above) so don't expect to be using much hammer, the map you would make would likely be very lua based. If you feel as though you are ready to take on the challenge of making your own infinite map, read the basic documentation here. It explains how to set up and start making an infinite map

If you do not wish to make your own LUA based map and instead model one using blender, the InfMap base comes with a .OBJ loader which can be used as well. An example of how to set this up can be found at https://github.com/meetric1/Infinite-Map-OBJ-Example

Maps that use this base

• Infinite Flatgrass
• Infinite Ocean
• Infinite Desert
• Infinite Flatlands
• Infinite Space
• Myogi Circuit (Assetto Corsa track)
• GTA Vice City (requires pretty beefy computer)
