It is fun how everyone is making _event versions! 2 out of 3 most popular maps in workshop are currently Halloween versions.

If this trend continues, Valve can run Halloween maps only

You should match your fog to your skybox.

You just made my life 10000000000 times easier. Can you tell also how to select brush by number? Go to brush is not very useful
Sorry, not sure :(

Im surprised that orange_event isnt #1 yet.

Not only that, but the conversions done are often the most lazy ones to imagine: Edit light setting, add some props. They wont even add something special to the maps that is considered worthy. Lets look at the some halloween maps:
Harvest: ghost
Eyaduct: underworld
Lakeside: wheel of fortune
Manor: a completely seperately built style.
Coaltown: wave 666

Re: Decompiling Hydro... other than the fixes to the spawn timers, has Valve actually changed anything significant since the SDK source copy they put out? I realize people who weren't around in the pre-VPK era no longer have those maps, but I'd be willing to upload my copies as a resource or something.

Didn't the code and the assets for tf2 orange box version got leaked? They did use those as a base for tf2c.

I've seen people doing it but not very well. Then again, the majority of the converted maps on the workshop are not very good.

Awesome, because I'd love to Halloween-ify it with an actual re-artpass (or I guess just an art pass in this case), not just a skybox change. Does anyone know what the "original" cp_orange map is called? I thought it was just called cp_orange but apparently there's like 100 different versions of it.

lookin' real neat so far, i like the design of the building
although the point looks like it'd be cramped (if there's walls in-between the doors, that is)

It does have walls (to block sightlines through the big doors), and it is meant to be the most cramped point on this map. It's not too bad though.

@people doing _event version of maps, Dont just change the environment light and skybox and call it done. That is somewhat super lazy and not creative, also the amount of people doing that same thing is crazy. #Sorry
