Ayy I see a lot of people doing the Indiana Jones thing with Doomsday, Myself included
I had a go at making a working bolder with some physics stuff to see how it would work. (apologizes for potato quality, I'm stuck using motherboard graphics while I wait for a new graphics card).
I know it's going the wrong way but's it's mainly me dicking around with hammer at this point.
If I do go further with this concept I'll make it a prop moving along a path instead of a physics brush.

that is quite the achievement lad
do you think that as a physics, we could make it dissapear at some point or would that be more apropriate to do with the prop along the path?

Well what I have going there is a simple trigger_teleport at the bottom that takes the bolder back to the top.
I don' think you'll want the final one to be physics based because all sorts of nasty things could happen (multiplayer problems, bolder might get pushed off or go in the wrong direction, general randomness/glitchyness of physics).

good point... i might still use the concept of the physics though with smaller bolders and see if i can make them dissapear after a delay or after colision. if not i might just rely on needles although im definitly sure someone (or you maybe) is gonna use that on a KotH map with it falling on the point.

!gf too dark
As I can see, it's much darker than most of TF2 maps, which can make player recognition harder than it's supposed to be. Make it brigher, maybe?

I tried to change the skybox, but neither sky_night_01 nor sky_nightfall_01 seemed to look good. And I'm not going to use a halloween skybox either. So I'm sticking with Logan McCloud's night_mountain for now. Maybe I'll ask for a custom night-jungle one if the map succeeds.
Anyway, I've done a few tweaks to some light entities (and added 2 more just in case) and ran around to check if I could see my and bot 01's team color:
(Inside the tower)
Overall, I think the lighting is fine. I'd test it with this light settings and see if people can tell teammates from enemies apart

for me i think the lighting is beautiful and for now its decently easy to tell apart red from blue so unless during gameplay its too ahrd id say keep it like thatI tried to change the skybox, but neither sky_night_01 nor sky_nightfall_01 seemed to look good.

A small library of props and textures that might fit the theme if you want to start something now
Jungle pack needed.
I mostly care of those amazing temple textures which I don't see here. Either I am blind, you did not include them to screenshot or you don't have them in the pack.

Thanks for what you've done, though.

by which you mean "thank you rav, that's really helpful!", right?

I disagree, i think those are still far, far too dark - and noticably orange-tinted, which doesnt help.
wait, you say I must thank him for what we have?
I did, there is actually a thank button. In the message, I wrote what I'd want it also to be.
You sounded pretty ungrateful - nothing else in your post but "well, mostly i care about something else."
