Nor me as it turns out. I forgot that I put in a map config for my regular test map. Durr.

IMO the light looks too diffuse for the sky, but it still looks awesome

Want screenshots?
Still don't know why the water wheel don't spins.

Did you try with prop_dynamic_override?

EDIT: FYI that hat is called the Top Notch...

 

[Muddy]

Blocky? Made of cardboard? Completely unsuitable for the game's art style? Explain yourself better.

I got some work done on 3rd cp of cp_bridges, and accidentally ended up inventing a new sub-theme. I guess it's about time I stop listening to heavy metal music while mapping.
(sky will be concealed on the final version of course)

You should make the lights on the right side above the door a regular mining lamp, maybe on a wood backboard. Those garage lights are really out of place. But otherwise it looks very good and you're welcome.

Incorrect.

Decided it was time to revive and old project. But I knew I'd have to kick it up a notch. So here we go! A koth_overflow and arena/koth_outflow screenshot comparison!

I want those computer terminals. :drool1:

I want those computer terminals. :drool1:

They are official models as far as I know. It's either props_moonbase or props_powerhouse.
They look really different, but in a good way.

You should see if you can put the "fizzled by a cow mangler" particle effect on anybody who falls onto the spaceship, so its like it has some cool electric defenses.

Theres a prefab on gamebannana for that http://tf2.gamebanana.com/prefabs/6005

What do you know. It actually works.

He's using env_entity_dissolver (it shows up as obsolete in TF2 because it's not in the FGD by default) with dissolve type 1. The env_entity_dissolver is triggered from a trigger_brush:game_playerdie, which means anytime a player dies on the map, they dissolve. So even if they use a /kill command, poof.

It doesn't trigger the cow mangler animation, but it does dissolve the ragdoll.

I'll have to play with it to see if I can get it to trigger from just the spaceship.

[Edit] Technically two env_entity_dissolver -- one for weapons (or ammo packs) with dissolve type 2 and one for tf_ragdolls with dissolve type 1. I felt obligated to edit and correct myself before BoojamSnark comes in and says, "Actually..."
