My name's Atasco, and I've recently started to act on my urge to make maps and stuff. As for myself, I'm an insufferable furry without enough free time to play tf2 for more than a couple hours at a time. But less about me and more about what I'm doing here :0

I'm hot off the heels of Crash's annual tutorials (and also tophatwaffle for really specific things I needed to look up) and all full of inspiration. I've made two maps so far, and I'm pretty sure I like making pretty details more than anything else, haha. The first one was a little room that slowly grew into a nighttime alleyway with an inexplicable pit you have to use a rocket-walljump to get out of, and I'm particularly proud of the lighting in that one. The other one was nothing more than the smallest koth map physically possible I aptly named koth_claustro, and it's me trying to learn in the most barebones way I could. Unfortunately, it crashes instantly when there are more than 5 bots on it, oops. Don't know what that's about.

My plans for the future (once I can map proficiently) are a couple maps I've had ideas for for a long time. One a 5CP where the middle and last points are fixed like a normal map, but the two other points between those slowly rotate under glass, that you have to follow in order to cap. Maybe it's a good idea or a horrible idea...? We'll find out when it happens. The other one is more of a silly map idea, see, I used to be an engie main and wanted a map that was every payload choke point I was good at defending with a sentry, the first point of Barnblitz, the second point of Frontier, and the last point on Upward, with some creative reorganizing so that it's not just a ridiculous meme map like 2bine or something. I dunno how that would turn out or be fun to play on, but it's a goal I have to make.

I guess I'll see yall around when I have questions or comments :0

Welcome to the site!
AHH thank you!! I didn't expect to get a hey from the man himself hahaha. I fangirled out for a second pfft. Probed is actually one of my favorite maps, though I don't get a chance to play much else of em since I'm mostly stuck with Casual :p
