uh oh, instanced displacements!
(they may or may not look completely different once you compile that thing)

It's not a double-sided displacement. But when I tested it for first time I got stuck into the displacement wall and top. But I fixed it but raising the top and smoothing the side and lastly adding a playerclip to it.

No errors or something wrong. Works fine. I got pictures in case you want to see them. Dropbox Gallery

Btw. It's a custom texture, from the construction pack.

what he means is displacements will often take random shapes when instances are compiled. you might want to collapse all instances before every compile. it's okay if you got lucky and this one works fine but you've been warned. keep an eye on those

For some weird reason instances invert displacements. So if you had a hill before, it will now be a valley.

I think it has to do with the offset for each point being calculated from the main vmf instead of the instanced vmf. or something like that

other maps just wish they were this good

nice hack bro.

Idolon, if you have divided by zero, I'll go to your home, get a bat, and hit you until you're dead.
Or maybe it's just Source being Source.

Guys, the map is supposed to do this.

While we're posting bad maps, here's point A of the map I'm working on.

It looks pretty spammy and open, and it is, but a lot of the key sightlines are cut off. I haven't placed much health/ammo yet, and I haven't done many signs either, but it's on its way. This point is meant to be a bit dreary and spammy, but the gameplay changes after A is captured and the cart goes outside. Things suddenly get colorful, and the map becomes more sprawled out.

Improving what exists is pretty cool.

A wip. Really.

Oh well it's gonna be a CTF map. I haven't decided the name yet. So it got the placeholder name "2bunker".

EDIT: After about 14 hours of making this map. I realized that the map was overscaled. FML!

If you put nodraw on the laser's holder, won't it be invisible in-game ?
