thank you! Trash water testers
your deaths under the Not 2Fort Bridge are not in vain, but in trash
it was also the funnest demo i have ever seen, and no it is not a ramp out of the water, you fall in, you die.

THANKS!

[_Matches_]

I had this basic idea for a a/d map in koth_king style where the Blu team starts in a Subway station.

I just started today making the basic shape of the spawn

worked a little on some textures for dewm, was aiming to be done after the weekend, but spend saturday making a 5cp layout and playtesting other maps....it was great!

blue doors and window, think I'll make the pipes blue too, floor trim will be dark metal like the bottom wall and the inner trim yellow

red door closeup, pretty happy with the specular highlights but the gray spots needs to be removed, mirroring wall and crate has not been textured,

middle update, added team color to the middle pillars, it can never be too obvious which side you are on,

tried making some steel looking textures, high gloss paint with edge wear, they might get team colors too...

...this and more in the b7 update

how did you make this map? with all the custom models?

in his case I believe he said he used source 2, but you could probably decompile the vmf with wallworm and then add models in yourself that way so you get accurate fitting models.

Please make that expensive water.

Please.

He models them in Source 2, then imports them into Source 1 for TF2.

For the first time in weeks, i can now officially say that there is stuff happening.

 

[Asd417]

I've been away from mapping after the jam. It almost feels like it was a month ago...

But being away from it does end up in a surprising way because I suddenly came up with this idea.

Taking a short break actually helps apparently.
Edit: This is a plr map btw. I kinda worry it might play out similar to hightower but I guess I can put a timer so that players cant just blatantly ignore the objective

 

[Twist.vmf]

what is the name of this prop!? i can't find it!

 

[killohurtz]

Something "conduit" in props_mining, I believe

 

[leprecan]

what is the name of this prop!? i can't find it!

The metal rods are under keyword "conduit", there are multiple sizes of it as well! If you mean the wiring, it isn't a prop, but is created using move_rope and keyframe_rope entities. You can find an explanation of these entities here: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Cables_and_Ropes

So I was working on a pl map during the 72 hour jam and didn't get it finished, I've kinda been burnt out so I haven't touched it since.

The pit is a copy of the one from pl_second so credit to Muddy for that.

Spoiler: More Screens

Area leading into last (which doesn't exist, yet)

Blu's first spawn (currently not connected to anything cause there's no first point)

Working on a door model to go along with the existing urban_window props for Terrace, i'm honestly surprised this doesn't already exist since TF2 seems to be a bit lacking in door models

 

[Twist.vmf]

working on trash water A4 and already starting to detail, i just can't resist!

that would look grate for a new York city street map!

 

[FunkEdge]

I was thinking of making a PL map that takes place in a mine that leads to under red base, but now I'm not sure on the idea as it could be cramp and filled with choke points being a mine and all.
what are your thoughts on it? could it be fun?

 

[zahndah]

could it be fun?

A theme doesnt dictate how fun a map can be. You could make a map in turbine theme and not have it be cramped garbage, its all about the execution.

 

[FunkEdge]

I see. so I need to try and make the mine fun to play in.
although mines are normally cramped and dark, I need to make that fun.

 

[Mess About]

I wonder when will you guys done judging? Cause I've made some stupid mistake and just can't stand leaving it there (also some updates too)
Spawn rooms from my 72hr ctf map

And a koth map I'm working on before, still no lighting though
