CTF subway a2

subway - A freight like capture the flag map with trains and a cliff

A work in progress map that involves many trains, a water fall, a nice cliff to fall off of, and more! As an alpha 1 this map includes extra features like bad skyboxing, a rectangular water fall, dev textures and mismatched props!

Hello! I ran around your map a little bit. Here's some things:
First off, your map doesn't have a gamemode prefix, you can add ctf_ to the beginning of your vmf to fix this.

Spoiler: Now for the map!

These trains are a bit of a pain. They move really slow and are really long. Players also can't walk in the opposite direction on the empty cars.

Ghost lights!

Seems like you used the incorrect skin for these crates, you can change that in their menu (Skin, change to 1(?))

I can get stuck in between these rails

I can see pretty far from this spot
V that spot V

This feels too long? Could move the entrance away from the window.

Set this noentry to be in the frame. And move the spawn door to here.

Could move the door here too.

And here.

Put a blockbullet or playerclip here so walking up it is smooth.

You could probably go with changing these lights from light to light_point, and don't forget to disable the shadows on these!

The trees seem to be floating. May wanna move them into the ground.

Same situation here with blockbullet.

This observer point isn't good. Move it inside, try above the waterfall? Also, you want your observer points to be the same perspective for both teams.

Texture here trying to make a new trend.

There's no gates/playerclips on the train entrances, so players can walk in and die.

How about riverway for a name?

questions/problems
1 some of those crates only have a red skin (fixed the rest)
2 respawn visualizers appear white in hammer (render properly), this makes texture scaling hard, solutions?

Thanks for your help!

this makes texture scaling hard, solutions?

There's option "Fit" that stretches texture right on the size of brush. Amazing for respawnroomvisualisers.
