The water scale looks off but I could be dreaming
WiP in WiP, post your screenshots!

I disagree - I think only windblown ripples look like the ripples on the water texture - ripples from something dropped in look very different.
HEY YOU!
Yeah, YOU! Reading this post!
Do you like CP_GORGE?
Do you like CARRYING LITERAL BOMBS AROUND?
Do you like the CAPTURE THE FLAG GAMEMODE, but want something DIFFERENT?
Do you like SEMI-DECENT ARTPASSES?
Well, buddy friend pal amigo friendo mate dude bro pal, have I got the MAP FOR YOU!
INTRODUCING A NEW GAMEMODE: BOMB DELIVERY!
AND IT'S TEST MAP : BD_GORGE!
(wowy howsers that's mildly impressive.)
BOMB DELIVERY : IT'S LIKE PAYLOAD AND CTF HAD A BABY!
...BUT THE BABY WAS JUST A SMALLER AND LESS IMPRESSIVE CTF!
Yeah, YOU! Reading this post!

I edited my picture to give it more of an old photo feeling (and fixed some of roughness of plants) http://i.imgur.com/Qes1cT9.jpg
I did IRL things again. Mill's got a turning wheel again (used to put the thing into the wind), which was a bitch to create, especially the wheel's support beams (which we made like 8 versions of or something because symmetry is a bitch). Also worked on a proper braking system so it functions like it would in the real world.
Now it just needs a new coat of paint and it's good again (you can also see one of the ropes (or string, actually. We're slightly optimistic by calling it a rope) hanging out over the green diagonal beam holding part of the roof up. That braking system is explained below).
Those two support things holding the wheel's axle are the ones that failed so often. You can see why, they're in a fancy shape. Because windmills.
The breaking system. The white beam in the middle is hinged on a hook. On the right, 2 strings go to the bottom of the mill, one in front and one in the back (because that's what it's like originally). When one of the two strings is pulled, the right part of the beam goes down, and because of the hinge the left bit goes up. Attached to it is a dark piece of wood with holes in it on the left. Attached to that is the weight that is used to put tension on the breaking system in the top of the mill causing it to slow down and stop (and then stay stopped). That piece is hinged on a screw (visible in the far right next to the upper part of the cross beam). Slightly towards the middle, a brass strip is attached to a rounded piece of wood in the top of the mill which is sat around the wheel that also has the cogs that drive the saw blades up and down. That piece of wood is also hinged on the other side of the mill, so when the brass strip lowers down it touches down on and creates friction between that piece of wood and the cogwheel causing the sails to slow down and stop.
Holy crap is it difficult to explain a mill's complex braking system in plain English. If you still don't understand it I'll have to edit the picture to put text on it explaining it with arrows pointing what does what.

Still working on pd_idol
Got rid of the old skybox. I liked the blue tone of the other one but the mountain felt out of place
(Ignore the lacking-alpha-channel overlay at your left)
When the capture area is enabled you get this new info_observer, located at the top room of the tower. I thought it would be nice to have a camera over there, but the angle is not final and needs some tweaking
A close up to the overlay of the first picture. As I plan to have 2 shrines or "control points" (One for mayan Saxton Hale, which is placed in this area, and another one for the "head model" one from the pack) I want to have some graffiti pointing where which control point is. I'll make a goofy Saxton Hale one when I start to map the other control point area. I was bored
I also get this white line at the border of the overlay that I can't delete. Any suggestions are welcome!

Oh look! I'm also doing a PL map! Although I can't show in-game maps because optimization,and re-doing good chunks of it. WHAT A TWIST!
Basically it's pl_technetium,made my takabuschik. I got permission to work on the map. Since it looked really nice and it might be so fun,I wanted to give it a try.
Basically I'm showing the chunks that I've been working for the past few days. I still need to do a LOT of stuff,but looks enough for me to show a little sneak peek.
