Alternatively use the nice looking gray cliff texture that nobody uses instead of the ugly one thats on every map.

cp_stargate, and if that's not possible, cp_doorway2heaven.

stargates dont exist yet fyi

 

[Ælement]

But Santa does, and he can make one if you are not naughty

The lights are coming from a lights texture, I cant tune them down without scaling the texture, which either results in too bright or too dark. Im only using these because I like how they look in 2fort

You can still fix that by messing with the tonemap controller. For some reason, the default tonemap settings are pretty much crap. Also, be sure to compile with the -staticproppolys option when you think you're done; right now I can tell that you're not because of the lighting on that one angled duct piece.

Tarry I'm positive that this is the texture you're referring to but I'm not sure if I like it

If it isn't then well that's awkward
If it is then it feels a little too smooth and straight

That looks way better than the Mtn Lab one

If you don't think thats better than the first shot, I dont know what was done to your eyes but you should be deeply upset at whoever did it.

I saw the first two pictures and i thought it was really cool how the stargate just lead out onto a vacant lot.

 

[Vaconcovat]

Its not turned on, duh

 

[tyler]

I just had my mind blown because I realized you could fake a functional stargate in tf2

...If you can't see through them, you could and all.

Winner.

Worldportals in the TF2 engine would make for some sick maps.

 

[re1wind]

older/other source engines (HL2) do have the option of using a camera and a block entity as a camera and monitor, which when used with teleport gave a good approximation, but tf2 doesn't have that ability and i wouldn't want to know the performance costs involved.

 

[Penguin]

just fake it with 3d skybox

 

[re1wind]

cp_star_gate
cp_gateway
cp_starway
cp_doublegate
cp_eyes_of_ra
