TF2Maps.net Mapping Contest #5: The Art Pass Contest

[grazr]

Hmmm, if Valve don't bother to nobuild stairs, why should we?
It's not stairs I find that blocking thing annoying on, it's the hill outside dustbowl stage 2 red spawn.

Valve do nobuild their stairs, they just miss some; and so have community map contributors in all their noob tastic novice experience with Hammer and level design.

"Complies" not "Compiles"!

The fact I've been up all night now shows.

All this nobuilding stairs, makes me cringe.

Just make your stairs 2:3 rise:run like they should be, clip them like you should and lo and behold, you can't put any buildables on them.

News to me.

Incorrect. You can still do the stacked teleporter trap at the bottom of 2:3 stairs.

I will Still need to fix cubemaps and recompile with HDR on full or final. It was fun to detail, but I now hate compiling.

 

[zpqrei]

Well, that was fun, wasn't it kids?

 

[soylent robot]

I enjoyed it, and I learned a lot about optimising and detailing. Thanks for doing the contest.

 

[Ida]

I learned a lot about Steam chat rave orgies.

 

[3Dnj]

Wow, I never map so fast

 

[Swordz]

It was, but it's sad that all entries are going to trash except one

 

[Acegikmo]

This has been an absolute nightmare and I will never enter a similar contest ever again.

Although it's probably because I managed to ruin my PC, leaving me with two weeks left to make pretty much the whole map.

Yeah, I have to admit that it is disappointing to see that so many of the really interesting artpass maps never made it in to submission.
