What on earth are you doing with Lumberyard?

Does TF2C really have those overheal pills scattered EVERYWHERE?

They only give you like 9 hp each, and don't even put out fires. You have to grab about 200 to get to max overheal. They're scattered everywhere because of that.

Doing what I was planning on doing with Ravine first....

Have this DISABLED when making new brushes, and your textures should be fine.
Another tip I learned when using the tool is to hit Alt + right click and it uses the current texture as your base.
So it will align the face your selecting as a base, and then reapply the texture to the one you right clicked on and apply the selected texture using info from the base face.

thanks! that will help a lot

More progress on 2nd stage of geyser. This is point 2-1 which still has a ton of work left but, it should cool running the cart through the rib cage (Jukebox will have a custom prop developed for this, white brushes are placeholders for testing):

It would be funny if you could link them altogether somehow in game like the one in frontier final and at the final cap they would all fall into the pit one after another going boom boom boom as they hit the bottom

The fence in the first pic looks like it would definitely fall over in real life.

Looks very overscaled. What is the mean distance between areas?

A LOT of what defines good detailing is what appears above the players. In your case, mainly that outside area, nothing but a flat wall. Not only is that boring, but rather bland and unrealistic. Things should be jutting out, sticking in, windows, lights, wires, all that.

Trying to avoid a 3D skybox is a sure fire way to end up with a boring map visually.

Its still a wip, and that is what I was going to work on after I fix up the lighting. Thanks for the advice

@Davekillerish , make the sign in the second screenshot smaller, usually offices wouldn't have signs that big

That is a LOT of overlays.
