Well there are metal supports inside it on the current alpha, so maybe it could stand (on stilts or something). Although Red and Blu were never known for their well thought out bases, I mean come on bases right next to each other, cart track to explosive pits.

Looking really good btw

We've played this quite a few times on the server I play on, and one of the biggest complaints was that the corridors from the spawn and between the caps are too huge, and it feels like there's a lot of wasted space. Other than that the points play out very well.

I'm quite sur you know this, but anyway.
Spawnpoint at (-5040.00 -3088.00 288.00) is not clear.

a22 is broken for me. I can't unpack the bz2 file, for some reason it goes all the way through the process and then says "unexpected end of archive". Mayhaps you repack it and rehost? I can't wait to get into it!

The visual elements of your map are quite remarkable. Players will be sure to remember their experience on this map, even if their team lost.

It seems to work fine for me and everyone else; try downloading it again :)

Wether or not you meant to, that error means that the file was either corrupted, or most likely the cause is that the download was interrupted some how before it finished. Just redownload it and you should be fine.

Yeah I realize that's what the error would have been caused by, which is why I redownloaded twice. I'm still crying inside because I've yet to get into glacier! T_T

Really enjoyed Glacier during Gameday and not too many suggestions/quirks I could find.

One thing I found was a displacement height issue (see screenshot), but other than that nothing jumped out at me, other than the stuck spawnpoint error on load.

Nice work!

Very fun as usual, There are some amazing sightlines at both A and B for snipers to abuse but It seemed to work out fine.
Can't believe this is still alpha... in my opinion it's been beta material for months now :)

Keep it up.

Thanks!
And about the alpha/beta suffix, it all comes down to how you define alpha and beta :)

To me, an alpha version is a map where the gameplay isn't polished enough and/or it looks bad/is undetailed.
A beta version is a pretty much fully detailed version of the map, where the gameplay is almost finished.

I'm still not fully done with the detailing, but I'm working on it!
A beta should be ready in about a week :)

Here's a change for the beta version:

Will probably add a fence to tell players that they can't go there.

Are the bits of snow on the roofs overlays?

Was just curious if you had created a new texture or if you had made overlays. I was hoping overlays so that they could be much more versatile. :thumbup:
