KotH Daenam b12

[hondjo]

Formerly known as greenhouse which I adopted from @Necrσ / Halcyon

Ive decided to take it to a more competitive approach because I found it having potential.

thanks to feedback from
TF2M
lucrative's stream
gaeta discord

Removed some deadspace in the lobby/spawn area
hopefully fixed cubemaps
added shutters on either side of the garden-exit of lobby to break up sightlines

flipped the windows on the catwalk
splitted the battlements, requiring people to walk from one to the other all the way. (jumping classes can still go over)

some other stuff idk

Oh my gosh, yes. This map looks fantastic. I love the direction this is going.

 

[Jack5]

Y'know, I think I liked the old name Viridii better. Rolled off the tongue easier.

[Asd417]

oh Now I see. I did think the name of this map is particularly Korean.
btw you want to keep 지하실 as a single word without spacing

 

[Jack5]

Cubemaps weren't built for the latest version of this map.

 

[hondjo]

- revamped far left side of lobby
- removed small greenhouse and replaced it with a more versatile shack
- moved and removed a bunch of pickups
- pickups have patches after being asked enough for them
- changed left flank to be more one-way and to favour the tunnel more
- improved clipping around common jumping spots and the point
- stop hiding in the ceiling
- improved korean translations ( thanks @Asd417 )

Cubemaps are broken when viewing the map with HDR on. Here are some screenshots of what the map looks like because of this: https://imgur.com/a/JbH5pfJ

whats with all of the clipping that kills rollouts (and really confuses me on where I can go)?

any plans to change it up in the future to where there arent invisible walls on places it looks like should be strategic?

 

[Melons]

Theres a lot of invisible walls that I just don't understand. These don't need to be here IMO. Kinda kills any interesting soldier movement.
Exhibit A (Outside spawn door).

This first one was a good laugh, but it shouldnt exist for such a small brush.

Exhibit B (On way to mid from outside spawn door).

This one I don't understand at all. Forcing people to thread the needle under this glass ceiling doesn't make much sense, there's no reason why people shouldnt be able to go over this catwalk.

Exhibit C (Mid)

This one you can at least argue you dont want this highground to exist for gameplay purposes, but if thats the case make it look like you shouldnt be able to stand on it, i.e. make a tower thats a lot higher or something.

 

[hondjo]

after a long downtime it's finally back.

GAMEPLAY
-adjusted some sightlines spanning from lobby spawn to battlements
-reworked the dropdown room to have a stairway instead
-overpass above the flank fence is now accessible and can be splashed through the grates.
-changed the shape of the point in order to combat "ninja capping"
-added a small ammo pack behind point under battlements
-staircase outside of right spawn made w i d e r

VISUAL
-added and removed various barrelcrate props to represent their teams' colour better
-(hopefully) made some inaccessible roofs obvious
-rethemed the capture point
-a team coloured spotlight emits from the point when captured

next up are 3d skybox, new skybox (currently budget tatooine) and edits to the korean signs, these have been sent to me already but im too lazy.

-fixed shit cubemaps/packing from b8
-shuffled around some props to make them look nicer and changed their colour
-added 3d skybox
-long overdue update of the korean sign for battlements from 교전지점 to 교점지역, and in the process accidentaly messed up one other sign which i will change later i suppose (제한구역 (restricted area) instead of 지하실 (basement) in the old dropdown room)

and last but not least,

[hondjo]

- raised the ceiling in tunnel and added splashable grates leading to point.
- removed fence dividing battlements
- opened fence dividing flanks
- added small health packs to tunnel and the back of point and replaced small healthpack on the left side with medium
-fixed overlays near red spawn not lining up nicely

- optimized the map in general, since i have a toaster config i personally can not tell the difference but i am curious as to how much it impacts different configs (fade distances, hints, occluders)

Heyo, b10 of your map had Missing Cubemaps so I made some for it! No decompiling of the map done, I just generated them inside tf2 using this (https://tf2maps.net/threads/tutorial-building-cubemaps.16452/) handy guide. The filename is koth_daenam_b11. Credit isn't required but it'd be appreciated
