Looks great so far, Shadow, but I'm wondering why the team colors are brighter outside and more weathered inside.

Are the robots able to use the jump pads?

 

[Woozlez]

Not a chance!

Just doing some detailing. (And a shit ton of clipping)

Holy mother of Batman does this look amazing.

Probably gonna sound stupid, but I did the outside brighter because I wanted to make a more vibrant distinction between blue and red's side. When you're in the middle and in combat, it's easy to get turned around in a koth map because you were fighting. So I made the colors brighter outside to give a better feel of which direction you're facing. Given, yes, there's a shit ton of other visual ques to this but I wanted to just make it a little more obvious.

You should try to vary the height of the buildings. At the moment they're all the same height and it's very square and boring.

My first attempt at making a custom weapon skin. I used the colours from the Japan pack to try and emulate Suijin's visual style. I apologise for my shit graphics and crap selection of skins to replace:

I only replaced the 'main' texture for each skin so some of them still look a tad weird. I also plan on making a red version. What do you guys think?

Also I need a name, and it's a tricky subject to come up with puns on.

I really hope future skins will be avaiable for non-stock weapons as well. Don't we all have festive, australium, and various botkiller stock weapons?

Can you currently test custom-skins only on stock weapons?

 

[Vel0city]

I hope Valve will include custom community created skins at some point.

You know what, I'll email my contact at Valve tomorrow and ask him about this.

The general consensus seemed to be that cp_biofuel was a bit overscaled so I'm trying to tone it down a bit.

It is very certain that this happens anyway. There are already custom skin entries at the workshop and since this is a CSGO inspired update, then we know where this is going. Don't bother valve with a question, they probably got plenty of already

That pit makes no sense in the context of the theme. Farms are on large flat areas, and some cobblestone pit to hell has no business eating the hard workers on the fields.

There are most certainly pits on farms. My friend's farm has a huge pit for throwing animal carcasses into. He accidentally dropped a book in it once and had to go fish it out.

The system for skins is only setup for weapons that officialy use any. Right now the only way of making a custom skin is to replace the funny textures.

This is a small preview of a concep mid I want to make, with a urban Manhattan-ish like theme.

Well guys, what do you think about it for now?

 

[Pocket]

Nice. Impressed that the urban and medieval assets mesh so well. And are those Acumen's benches I see?
