more progress (thanks to stiffy for suggesting the lower area!)

More progress made

It seems like a1 is nearing its end. Clip and seal than it gets its own map thread!
I am looking forward to test this.

Good portal 2 vibe but I want to point out that trees dont grow in dark. You need to give it a reliable lightsource for it to grow that high.

Decided to 'reboot' my pl_desertmap because of my major sloppy brushwork and cramped areas; Rebuilding the map from the ground up with larger areas and displacements in mind. Very happy so far!

(Yes that rock is broken, will be fixed soon enough)

The shit you have to come up with to make things visible in the right places D:

 

[Crowbar]

Not sure the leaf mess and general uneditableness you're gonna have here is worth not going for making it displacements both inside and outside, with an areaportal going upwards to cull visibility/horizontal hint.

It does not cause that much of a mess in the leafs. Not sure what you mean by making it displacements since both displacements and func_details (the whole top of the building is func_detailed) act the same way with skybox brushes (when even a tiny part of a face is visible the whole face is rendered.)

I had to do this crazy skybox because this was the only way to have parts of the visible faces on each side of the skybox

 

[Pocket]

Pretty sure you're thinking of func_brush, not func_detail.

 

[Tumby]

No, func_Detail works perfectly fine. Dustbowl does it between between the first points of stage 1 and 3.

 

[Crowbar]

I believe that after leaf calculations, func_detail faces are treated just like world ones, and world faces do get cut.

 

[Mikroscopic]

func_detail faces do not get cut by skybox brushes.

 

[Jusa]

Heres what I used to educate myself with.

I finally got back to pl_savlow, and I made the first point and now onto the 2nd tomorrow, this is possibly my best work in ages.(note this is pl_stormhouse it was called savlow for a bit)
