Infinitely better than the Harvest theme. Not done though.

@KubeKing What's your process for reducing the map to dev brushes? I'd like to try a similar project, but I'm having trouble doing this quickly.

There's a lot of deleting more than anything. Start from the tops of buildings and work your way down.

The main things you have to worry about are leaks and skybox brushes. They have to be managed with supplemental brushwork, which requires a decent amount of trial and error. Your goal is to get the map's brushwork to be as clean and as simple as possible: always keep that in mind.

Reducing a map to dev brushes is not a 'quick' process by any means, but it isn't the hardest part of making an event map. Figure out exactly what you have to delete and how you must prevent leaks, then go for it.

Pro-tip: It may be useful to take screenshots of detailing you with to delete, and sketch the detailing you wish to create over top.

Edit: On symmetrical maps, you should probably delete one side straight off the bat. You don't want to have to repeat the brushwork reduction.

SCREENSHOTS! I reworked parts of Ascendants last:

Why? Because i also redid all the connectors to last!

Map is not in a playable state, i broke the tracks and also didn't implement everything i wanted to change, but yeah, i made progress.

You can mostly ignore the detailing, i experimented around and was too lazy to remove it for now. It will probably change completely again.

For koth_isonzo_a10 I'm doing some major changes, like reworking mid and fixing a lot of problems. But also I start to texture because It's kinda hard to work with dev textures now.

Hello Guys!
I want to start modelling props and weapons for tf2. Have you got any recommendications on what software to use ?

Not the place for questions. You should probably start with Blender, it's free.

Blender is definitely a program you should try. There are plenty of tutorials on youtube and the best thing that Blender is free and it's even on steam.

Totally forgot dawn's vigil is a map, just like lots of other maps that died. Is it still in development?
