ARENA arena_oilrig b12

[HomingPenguins]

Oilrig - A small arena map, it is also my first.

A small arena map that is set above the ocean on an oilrig. I had help with the layout a bit from a more experienced mapper. Everything still has dev textures execpt for the ground, which is just a random TF2 concrete.

 

[HomingPenguins]

I added some textures and addressed some of the feedback given during the imp this was played on.

[HomingPenguins]

Most of the textures were inconsistant on each side, i clearly missed some spots and in one case an entire room. i was tired yesterday. This fixes all that, and im still likely to have missed a bunch.

ive removed the wall on the first platform on the left of each spawn, and made it look a bit more realistic. you can also jump the fence as scout and explosive classes. removed a bit of prop spam and added grates at the bottom of ramps

Adds a few details, cleans the place up a bit, and then a slight change to the ramp at spawn. This is no where near done, still have a bunch of places to make look nice, and definitely needs work to the background and water

Adds a hall under the ramps and next to point, don't know if they are permanent or not, needs a bit of playtesting first. i also added some weird looking decoration, probably going to make it look better later. added a bit of trim, needs more though. going to add pictures soon.

Makes the hall look better, widens the ramp door a bit, and adds a hall to the cylinder, which has a troll in it for no reason (will probably get rid of though). Thanks to Kos for pointing out some problems that are fixed this update.

Cleaned up a few things, made it to where you can get airblasted off the spawn room window without also being able to rocket/sticky jump out in the preround. Added a whole bunch of clipping around objects that needed it. I also readded the pillers under the map that holds up the oilrig, it was just floating before. Also adding screenshots.

I added a whole bunch of lights and decked out blu's spawn a bit. Red is still the unloved spawn, will add stuff to it next time. ill update the screenshots soonish. It also removed a few props way out in the void that existed for some reason.

Adds a new room at the top of the ramp that you cant enter that just exists to make the place look bigger than it really is. also adds more random props to make the place look actually used, even though most of the walls still look pretty bare. fixed a few of the light intensity issues from last version. and figured out that if you have a weird light error, just delete stuff untill it works, and remake it using the other side as a template .

Adds at the very least power lines. pretty sure i did a bit of clipping and decorating, but ive been on this version for a while because i forgot to release it.

More looky things.

Adds an observatory/office at the top of the buildings for people to look at . also fixed the corner turning because it seemed like you could go in there. there is now a big do not go in there sign.

HomingPenguins updated arena_oilrig with a new update entry:

Ocean looks like an ocean now

Did you look at the skybox and ask, "Why does the water stop over there" or "Why in the world are there mountains in the distance, we are on an oilrig. Ask no more, I have fixed at least one of those issues. now instead of asking those questions, you ask, "Why does that fog over there look so weird" or "Why is there a square of water around the oilrig that has a weird glare on it" or "Why are there mountains behind the fog on the skybox." These questions are valid, but sometimes you just...

More window, More Cleanliness that no one can actually see. And a new curve

Deleted a bunch of brushes and then readded them with a lot less overlap and messiness. i also curved some corners and added a new window that no one will ever look at.
