WIP - cp_Amsterdam coming soon

[Lastig]

cp_amsterdam_b1 out now!

Hi everyone,

We've been working on a CP map for TF2 for some months now. The theme of the map is Amsterdam. We're gonna release the Beta1 next week. It's our first entry in mapping, you can check out some screenshots and postcards over here:

and a shot for the peeps who don't like to click links

Cheers, Maus & SLiD3

Hm. I like it, but I fear for my framerate. So many windows, alcoves, and brushes...

 

[sunoxen]

Wow, looks lovely. Great details. Is it a 5 point map or Dustbowl style?

<edit> duh, wasn't looking. Dustbowl. I've been waiting for another Dustbowsl-style map since Corporation. Can't wait to try it!

 

[Snipergen]

Nu nog de bordelen!

This looks really decent, submit for gameday, I'd like to test it

Holy fast replies Batman.

The windows come into play in 2 sections of the levels, besides that we tried to optimise as much as possible with func_details and hint brushes.

Wow, looks lovely. Great details. Is it a 5 point map or Dustbowl style?

Thanks ^_^, it's a 2 point map, akin to dustbowl.

Gracias, we're hoping to test it out on several servers, so any recommendation is much appreciated. ^_^

The paint transition in this shot is a really nice touch.

 

[sunoxen]

We'd be happy to host and test it for you. We just helped with the new version of Oilrig.

We love Corporation, and would love another 2-Point map to be in rotation.

Wow, looks like you've done a really good job so far. I can't wait to play this, sounds great.

EDIT: When I wrote this, the last reply in the topic was Snipergen's. lol?

Omg yes I didn't see that! Really nice way to hide that seam to switch texture!

The paint transition in this shot is a really nice touch.

I'd like to second that opinion. After I first noticed it, I spent about 30 seconds staring, saying to myself "genius".

 

[YM]

aye, I've thought about doing something like that transition
many times.... only, I never have.

 

[VelvetFistIronGlove]

That's amazingly pretty. You've got some great artists there. This rooftop bit looks like great fun, too:

Can't wait to try it out.

This looks very good, did you base it on photographs/real areas?
It'd be interesting if you posted these.

 

[grazr]

Awesome, incredibly original too how you've used the texture selection; along with making your own, it seems. Lighting is spot on too.

Kudo's, i'm quite taken back!

thanx, yeah we did base it on real area's. Though (of course) we did not build everything like the real world =) Here are some of the reference-pics:

Wow. Looks awesome!
Will definitely be added on my servers, and I'll make deathmaps and provide sourcetv replays.

 

[Laz]

looks like some talent that seam transition was indeed genius. Here I am thinking "Damn, I wish I'd thought of that"

 

[Uriak]

Signaled to our community. We're waiting for release, now

 

[Laz]

bob roxx love it! looks like this map is filled with little gems, both architectural, as custom texture-wise.

 

[FaTony]

Now this map is developed the same way as tc_street.
