Progress on some Alien-style stuff for an mvm map, these are just testing builds and not the actual map. Spawn is gonna be interior similar to these screens, and the outside battlefield will be the outside of a base/ship grounded on a massive meteor or asteroid or something. Friend is still working on the actual layout

Still have a lot more models left to do lol

While waiting for my map cp_overload to receive some more testing, I've decided to go ahead and do some alpha-ish detailing on areas I'm reasonably sure won't be changing. This should also help one of the biggest problems, navigation. Previously all the rooms were just dev textures with nothing really standing out, so this (along with some more signage) should help massively.

Remember, folks, lighting defines how an environment is perceived by the player. A few tweaks to the light entity settings, plus some new light sources, and you can get some really nice improvements. Here are some gifs showcasing comparisons between versions of my map, KOTH Ice Tower, rc5 (2021) VS rc6 (2023):

Spoiler: Comparison 2

Spoiler: Comparison 3

need opinions on this layout

the map is ctf so even if this is just red's side, the blue side will just be mirrored

Is it too small / too big?

Is it too small / too big?

Hard to say based off the photo. Try compiling the map to get a feel for the size of the space and be sure to pick a medium speed class as to not have a bias due to speed. Then you just go from there and adjust

Trying to get a feel for a non-Attack/Defend map.

Many different possibilities with this theme.

More progress on the map after a lot of laziness.

I think I should call Ice Tower 2 at this point, or go back in time and change the RC to Beta... oh well. I still need to do the blu side and some areas need more work, but I think this will be the final update for this project. I will do a testing session before full release of the RC7.

Trying to figure out which textures fit best....

The vibrant colors of Los Angeles make for a pretty looking mercenary murder arena...

@HashBrosTrollsG This looks nice! The buildings in the first screenshot feel a tad bit empty to me. But I love the windmill and the buildings in the 2nd screenshot look really nice. Hope to see more of this!

I love the aesthetic of 70's Los Angeles! I hope to see this blossom into a full-fledged map!

It's a pit over lava, what about a supervillain lair?
