Caves187

[Drehking187]

Herewith, I publish now the first beta release of my map CTF Caves187 for Team Fortress 2. The map consists of 2 bases which lie in the interior of a mountain. In each of these bases is the intelligence of a team. In the middle of the map the hill opens up in a kind of valley with a little lake in the middle. The two base entrance are protected by fortifications and are connected by a bridge.

Even if the map is quite small, it nevertheless has a high fun factor.*

Who wants to play the map, may like to download it or allude to the Public Server of sBesign.de.

Very pretty, although I'm not sure the stone texture on the castles really fits with TF2. Your choice though

Looks nice, sunlight looks perfect.

Might want to change the textures of the castle walls and the water.

There's a great cobblestone wall texture from sawmill (There's a snowy version in viaduct) that you can use for the castles, and the water should be a different one, because the texture you're using now is from HL2. Otherwise, looks nice!

That's a cubemap issue. You can fix it by placing env_cubemaps throughout your map and using the command "buildcubemaps" in game in order to build the reflections. You can read more about it here:

Whats the 187 for?

Please link to the pictures I had a huge load time for them. Also, the water beneath the dock is from hl2. As for the texture, make sure you're choosing water not water_dx8 or water_beneath, as anything with beneath in it will not show up.

Also, put in an env_tonemap to the map to control that HDR. Put in the settings via inputs so logic auto>env_tonemap inputs. For reference examine a valve map or download this, which is very helpful for setting an environment based on the map/skybox.
