WiP in WiP, post your screenshots!

All vertices on-grid? Are you a wizard?

1) enter vertex editing mode.
2) select all verticies
3) Ctrl + b (iirc, or snap to grid)
4) All verticies on grid
5) check for no concave shapes

So refreshing being able to get out of the caves and into a skybox

Does anyone have any last minute feedback or advice on this? Hoping to upload very soon and wanna see what more people think

What's up with the weapons flashing?

I'm a little underwhelmed. I would prefer to see proper 24 player gameplay with wide panning shots showing the flow of the battlefield. This currently makes the map feel cramped and doesnt show off what makes its gameplay unique well enough. My 2c.

Also this has to do with player movement smoothing. It could use a touch up.

More updates on my map, I think it's coming along quite nicely! Check out all the SS's here.

Trade maps now have a gym for the mercs to work out!

Theres a entity for mirrors and theres also a way to do them with water reflections

 

[Crowbar]

Can I post here Hammer screenshots if the map is really WiP and if I try to make skybox to compile it iIwill have to delete half of it after (Also, a box of cordon will i think lag much)?

Mirrors work in TF2, but only in 3rd person view will you be able to see yourself.

It's not even an entity, it's just a material. Also, the water shader will only work when it's horizontal and flat. Otherwise it'll flat out stop working. Been there, tried that, didn't work.

All WIP shots are welcome here. If you want in-game screenshots though, just make a giant box around the map (NEVER ship a map like this though) and run VVIS on fast. It'll give you good enough lighting and the compile won't take forever calculating visibility.

 

[Crowbar]

I have no lighting at all at this point so I think Hammer screenshots will be even better.

Those barn doors don't really make much sense considering there isn't a pulley nearby or any other means of getting things up there.

Surely it's an old historic site from before the invention of stairs. You are meant to rocket jump to get to the door.

 

[TyeZenneth]

Personally, I think that little broken stair model would be perfect right there.

You have no idea what's inside those doors. For all you know the crane might be an extendible one that stays inside

Well, if a player has to stand around and wonder that it's generally a better idea to just make the crane. Or a sign that says something like Loading zone or something like that.
