Possibly put some height variation with the displacements, then you might not need to put a building.

Do you mean as in a balcony short of displacement or a sort of hill? If you could draw what kind of height variation you mean, I'd really appreciate it.

You can really do anything you like, but one idea is to lower the ground around the corner, and have a small 'cliff' on one side. (Idea in black, arrows point in the direction of higher ground) You could also raise the ground, but just be aware of the sight line this may introduce (marked in red)

I can't quite see what's in the alley around the corner, so change this all you want to suit the surroundings.

A map I started on yesterday, pl_meadow. Does anyone know how to get rid of the gun while taking screenshots?

I wish my computer could handle AA.

2 words: Hell. Yes! Being a brit I've always disliked the lack of maps based in Britain, and this map looks absolutely perfect! Love all the beer on the benches and the skybox!

I started making a 5CP last night, and here's middle so far. I need to add pickups, and then I'll plow through connectors to second. It's going to be a somewhat new style for TF2 and I'm making it an experimental 5CP. Hopefully, I can make a map and models during the 72HR Jam to help decorate this.

Sorry the shadows don't look too great. I compiled and ran it with Delta and forgot to tweak the settings.

Love me some attack/defend cp.

A/D is the best gamemode. No need for all that symmetrical bullshit

Symmetrical mids can be fun to design though!

I made a dam tower for iibo

it's all on-grid and pretty and was a very interesting exercise on the use of 2:7 4:7 1:2 and 1:1 slopes all in one

based primarily off a 12 sided cylinder, and this.

All vertices on-grid? Are you a wizard?

I've updated my map, anyone who's interested can check out all the SS's here.
Any one who's interested in following the project can also go back to that album as I try to update it regularly.
When the map reaches a playable state, I'll create a thread.
