TF2Maps.net Major Mapping Contest #11: Mercs vs. Aliens - Sponsored by Ronin

[SethBreloom94]

I know it's late, but if anyone needs map ideas, I have a few. Mostly for people who are joining late, or have to start over off of a bad idea. I have some good ideas, but I cannot map to save my life.

Keep in mind though, I would like to keep in contact with whomever I'm working with.

Some of the props i've been working on.
Alien props:

These alien props are modular so you can mix and match them to create your own alien creations. there will be a laser gun and cannon. I just need to figure out a design that fits these.

The destroyed props:

we'll see what else i can do because right now all i can see is versions of props destroyed or rubble.

Im open to suggestions too. Keep posting here so i can follow them.

The prize pool is the most generous i remember ever seeing. And i've decided to spice it up even further with a little experimental prize:



This is the terraformer. It's not just a rare weapon, it's a token of map making superiority. Starting with this contest, it'll be a wandering trophy, switching hands to the declared winner of every major contest. I believe that the people of tf2maps.net are decent enough people to allow such a system to function, so let's give it a go.

May the best mapper claim the mighty hammer!

 

[NoodleCollie]

That looks pretty awesome.

(But the pedant in me is saying "Terraformer" should have a capital T...)

We should get it gift-tagged by Boojum or drp so people can't just make their own

These are some of the parts that worked on these past few weeks.
Still can add more based on suggestions.
The texture is not complete but basic colors.
Self illum will be added soon.
Lods also not implemented yet. Let me know which models you want me to do lods for.
I included samples of what you can do with these alien parts.

I decided to roll with 5cp. Almost ready to design my last capture point.

The point with the hint brush is the mid.

This is what i got so far:

3 routes between mid and second. There will be another 3 between last and 2nd.
