You don't need to add the tf_gamerules, it's there anyway

One of the features is "new geometry!"

lol, that'd be sad if we'd start having to say, "This map features custom geometry"

"Custom geometry! AWWWESOME you must be a map-god!"

There already was an arena_2fort since some months ago.

Someone should stack every valve map end to end and make a huge payload map out of it.

I fine-tuned Lumberyard, I think it's much better like this:

Oh dear.

 

[The Political Gamer]

That looks so cool.

I tried compiling 2fort upside down. Everything broke. Spawnpoints were broken, doors were broken, lighting was broken, suddenly there were leaks everywhere... not fun.

Dam I was going to do that. Thanks for saving me the time

Please kill me. :facepalm

Come on, rainy night time. Where are you. *rolls dice*

 

[TracerDX]

I don't even like 2fort. Now it will be on rotations 100 times, in different flavors. I doesn't matter how much you flavor crap, its still crap.

In other news, my next map will be ctf_goldrush. That's right, the whole map.

He's my opinions on this whole "let's make 2fort with rain/sleet/night/bright/upside" hoo-hah in the form of a music track.

Probably be better if valve encouraged people to make new maps instead of tweaking finished ones.

Official Community Map Pack maybe? Make 10 community maps official in one go between updates. Would be pretty nice I think because most community maps are underplayed.

 

[VelvetFistIronGlove]

Hey the good news is, you'll easily be able to weed out the crap servers that run these novelty maps from your favourites list.

What I mean by making brushes in a robotic way is that it looks like game geometry is taken and split into brushes, instead of brushes that look like a real person made them. You'd think you'd see some nuances in the brush-work if it were the real source file, but it looks like compiled geometry was split up with a clipping tool.

And yes, I meant nodraw. The textures on the backs of brushes is sloppy. And in between brushes, you see the same somewhat-arbitrarily applied textures that you see when you use the clipping tool in hammer. Again, it's like a robot made it.

I'm not the only person that builds brushes in nodraw and then textures the sides I need, right? I just assumed most people did that because it keeps it as optimized as possible.

That, and you'd think if any maps would compile with no errors, they'd be Valve maps...

It only helps on compiling it doesnt actually draw stuff that isnt visable ingame, and most of that is nodraw. Although im not surprised these are the same people who never fixed the rotating clouds in 2forts skybox since release lol.

If you can see the brush you render the sides facing you. Ergo you do render them even if they are obscured by another brush.

Any world brush faces touching another world brush face or the void are culled during compile, so it really doesn't matter what texture is on all those "inbetween" faces. (same goes for touching brush faces within the same brush entity) It could be that they all the more familiar with their own engine along with not wanting to waste time on needless things, so they don't bother with them.

I said visable ingame not visable to the player
