Garner - Heronherald

A Player Destruction map set in a mining facility or something.

[Some of the current map screenshots are outdated, look at the updates tab for up-to-date screenshots]


The main gimmick of the map is that the players are collecting australium from killed enemies. A minecart barrels down middle every once in a while and stops at the designated capture point. Deposit your ingots there!

I finally figured out that the layout is too koth-like, and so here we are.

I am still having heavy emphasis on height variation, so from a top-down view the map looks very straight, although many areas are layered over others

Made the spawn courtyards smaller and closer to mid
20190407144754_1.jpg
Added a small side area near the flank route in the valley
20190407144819_1.jpg
Added a structure to jump from into another new building
20190407144859_1.jpg
The same new building
20190407144906_1.jpg
Added these lower caves for flanking

Hello again, it's been a few hours since an update, huh?

Not many visual changes come with this update, the main change is that the minecart doesnt appear as frequently

Small changes include:

-Replaced the extremely shiny concrete textures

-Added some more neat textures

-Adjusted some more clipping

-Added a patch under a healthpack

-You cant go on the pipes at mid anymore

-Mined more rocks out of the darkest recesses of the mine, at this point the facility is a serious safety hazard

I moved the objective under mid, in a hatch that opens when the minecart rolls in

The Pit
20190618215142_1.jpg
I replaced the eyesores of walls at mid with sheds, which also helps nerf some nasty sniper sightlines
20190618214948_1.jpg
Inside the shed
20190618215201_1.jpg


Small changes include

- Adjusted Clipping

- Made textures more consistent and less messy at mid

- Although the threat of a gas leak from inside the mines has been resolved, the mercenaries are still exposed to copious amounts of methane gas

So, I skipped a14 because I made Garner KotH for 1 version, and yea not many people liked that, so here we are

There is now a second capture zone at the top of the hill where the minecart stays for 15 seconds, goes down the track, stays at the original capture zone for 15 more seconds, then leaves
20190628141501_1.jpg
The Trifecta
20190628141513_1.jpg
More alpha detailing
20190628141535_1.jpg
20190628141529_1.jpg
20190628141522_1.jpg

I've been on a mapping streak since summer started, so here's another update.

Reduced the amount of empty space in this cave and made it fancy
20190702171849_1.jpg
There's a resupply locker here now, and the door was moved slightly so you have a straight shot from the ramp to the door. Also the door is now two doors that separate so it doesn't clip through the roof
20190702171828_1.jpg
Added fog
20190702171908_1.jpg
Widened the mid concrete high ground
20190702171916_1.jpg
New roof shapes
20190702171959_1.jpg
20190702171953_1.jpg
Opened up the peak a bit and added more cover
20190702172106_1.jpg


Smaller changes include:

- Did another optimization pass, adding occluders and prop fade distances

- Made the upper capture zone larger

-Added a nobuild to the small building at mid
