Personally I'm always looking for places to hide skybox edges when I'm driving through a nice scenic landscape.

Real men rip off Viaduct's skybox setup and make the map appear more open than it is.

When looking at rolling hills in the distance, I always think how nice of skycards they are.

I'm not kidding.

Glad i'm not the only one.

Sometimes when I walk around my university I imagine myself rocket-jumping to a higher floor in the open gathering spot of one of the buildings. It would actually make travel so much shorter.

And one time a girl held a door open for me and I said OUT LOUD "Z2". I have never face-palmed harder in my entire life.

As for mapping I often critique the floor plan of many of the buildings I walk around and see how they could actually affect gameplay in tf2, so you guys aren't alone.

Now when I go on a bike trip/road trip though the country I now look at every farm and think, "Wow, that's really neat detailing". TF2 has changed my perceptions forever.

Side note, but the scaling thing in SFM is really nice (the crates are scaled down so he can do the Captain Morgan thing).

I paid a lot more notice to the phong shading in real life after I played BioShock the first time.

Anyone know how to fix the black static prop in game thing?

After a time of hibernation. I felt like that I would try mapping again. Despite that I'm terrible at layout, that's my opinion.
By the way. This time I'm trying to create an asymmetrical koth or possibly an A/D cp map, considering the layout.

Try compiling with -StaticPropLighting and/or -StaticPropPolys in the additional parms.

You can probably do what others suggested, but you can add and name an info_lighting close to said prop and specify the info_lighting's name in the Lighting Origin parameter of a prop like so:

 

[Fruity Snacks]

I would highly suggest the lighting compile options before using an info_lighting.

Useful lighting parms for props as explained here.

My first commisioned project. If i have to make an achievement map, i might as well make it not terrible.

Yes, but does it have a MURDERSKULL?
