Slowly finishing up the map! (C is now 100% done)

In this version:

-----Point A-----
➤ Reworked the detailing inside Blu's spawn. Now the cave feels a lot more unique, custom props made by JeddyK

You should definitely consider updating your Overview screenshots soon. You've come a long way, and your map is looking quite different than what it looks like in the screenshots!

Other than that, keep up the great work! Can't wait to see where this map goes next, and I'm always happy to see that this map got updated in my notifications. <3

I have a newfound appreciation of how pretty this map is after I took a closer look today--

--speaking of which, I noticed that this map actually uses colour correction to get its nice blue... warmth? (lol, but like, it's true? nice warm sunny days are pretty blue-ish ^~^)

It looks great in most of the map!,
but fails horribly in the frequently used nature rock texture when it is lit 'directly'(?) by the sky's ambient light. Gets way too blue and oversatured.

Maybe make the ambient light warmer or grayer? Maybe make the colour itself darker, too? I'm not really sure if these suggestions are any good, but, they're there. I'd love to experiment with it myself but, uh, I'm not subjecting my compy to hours of vrad -final, specially when I lack the author's vision on it xd

lovely map, i'm kindof angry at myself for not being as positive as i should've been like every time i had the opportunity to be
can't wait for 3d skybox cuz my imagination is going wild looking at all the currently empty vistas ^~^


this was my 69th message, how jolly
