WiP in WiP, post your screenshots!

I am irrationally happy about how perfectly this fit. I was just looking for fence models and three of these lined up together perfectly. Didn't have to alter any geometry.

 

[Muddy]

I love when that happens. It's a magical feeling.

 

[worMatty]

A benefit of working to sensible grid sizes.

Those are HL2 fences though.

 

[Muddy]

It's a Global Offensive map.

Though I got caught out by those fences too.

Updating 2nd point on pl_snowycoast (finally):

And bonus out-of-bounds quonset hut:

 

[Moonrat]

I like that hut, not sure about the one you can fight in

 

[soylent robot]

I'm back and I'm bringing this daft KotH map with me

Fear its sightline problems!

 

[DrLambda]

Adding new paths to the arena version of Temper...

 

[takabuschik]

Is the roof a custom model? or just some really clever use of something that already exists?

 

[Muddy]

*idly checks the last couple of pages*

Is this why I don't ever get to the detailing stage?

Berry's covered most of what I wanted to say, but another thing I noticed was that the roof on that hut is rather thick. What is it, 16 units? Ideally you want a thickness of just 4 units.

And have more of an overhang

Clever? I am not this. It's a custom model (well, 3 technically: windowed, non-windowed, and entrance ring). The rest is brushwork and existing props.

That's really cool EArkham. I was working on a similar-styled arctic base about a year ago:

I wish I knew how to model things. I should probably learn.

You should make a lightless version.

Will these see a public release by any chance? They're very nice.

Thanks! Yup, pending changes in pl_snowycoast. I'll probably release them at the same time as the next version of the map.

Ho, hum. I've been putting off some of my maps because I hadn't got the layouts down on paper. I didn't want to proceed until I had mapped it all out. But I realise I can't plan things fully without some experience about what works, or without understanding my capabilities in Hammer. So fuck it.

ctf_warehouse_district.

Ignore the empty space on the right side. That will not be a path.

Intel room is just a concept. Not sure if it will go in the map.

Some of my written theory.

I expect a lot of the map to change in response to play testing. This is probably going to be my first non-Deathrun map that's tested here at TF2maps.

 

[Kraken]

Wow that's pretty impressive.

 

[HQDefault]

Working on a ctf map.
-snippy snip-

That's so pretty :|

Oh, god, I hope plays well so the beauty stays.
