One week ago it happened first time. In my night dream I was playing MvM Bigrock that had different layout in the cave. I was really excited because it was quite cool and the idea of making another map based on a dream (vindemine was dream map) was exciting. Naturally I woke up and start mapping... but that was still in the dream. Even though I didn't use Hammer but moved entities and geometry ingame, I thought I was awake. Interestingly, as per usual I didn't quite remember the layout when I was really awake but I didn't remember it in the dream either.
That would be nothing if I didn't experience it again. This night I was making my own map. The map a bit like Canyonpush in a way that it was desert town with train going through it but this time it had had a lot of industry based on the amount of tracks. Basically it was like if Coaltown and real trainyard had a baby. I like desert map so it was exciting but oh man, the skybox was the most impressive skybox ever. It was so realistic but still TF2 style. Dream-me was thinking how sad it was that players couldn't enter the skybox. Actually I think I hadn't made the environment and the town, I was just building payload track there. The editing was very natural. I could see the brush borders without actually seeing them and selecting a brush added blue borderlines and resizing it by dragging showed the brush size. Definitely good way to make Hammer VR (@Layl).
I think I lost the point of this post a while ago. Mapping dreams are same time so exciting because you can consciously edit your environment but so sad too because you may remember the layout of the map but lose the essence when you wake up. I remember the layout clearly but it is just "meh" without the idea and visuals, the essence.
