Asylum why can't you just make a normal map -_- I'm sure you'd be pro. (But that looks amazing :O)

I've got a billion ideas for a normal map, but none of them are working out too well. Heard of ctf_rumble before? No? Good. The less said about that the better. In the meantime, I'm just letting my mind wander into whatever strange places it takes me, trying to see just what magic tricks I can do with Hammer. (Have you made a fully functional bowling alley in Hammer? I have!) That and bizarre concepts that nobody else who cared about their e-cred would dare publish, just to say that not only was I the first (or only, as the case usually is), but that I made it work too.

Also, soylent, that was the Blood Hawk, not the Deep Claw. No internet points for you.

F-Zero = Best console racing game.

The first row of machines is easy, the second is obscure.

Bonus: I made a pl track loopty loop once, but the cart didn't like going upside down.

Hey guys, is this idea correct or fallacious?
Let's say one has a symmetrical map consisting of two rotated halves, where the border follows one of the horizontal axises. If there's a separate area in this map that's only accessible by doorways placed over this border, would it be ok to make that area symmetrical along the other horizontal axis instead? The sightlines through the doorways could be a problem, but if those are kept as small and disadvantageous as possible on both sides, it seems like it could be pretty much balanced.

Ra... rape gnome zone???

 

[soylent robot]

[Tarry H Sruman]

I didn't know this was a thread for abstract art.

I figured rape gnomes was a surreal enough concept to be undramatic, but I see your point.

Workflow exercise, 2.5 hours from brush to layout completion, then pasted in the logic for floating platform I did before and made a few edits. Trying to do speedmapping, will post the video later.
It's a gimmick map! Balloonimap! But it might become something later. Mid is too big, would add building routes/blockers/places in a couple places. Running around it it might work better as CTF than koth. But for now it is balloonimap!

Looks good Mr Happy, but the centre could benefit from similar buildings like the ones on the edges, to break up the rock walls

I didn't know this was a thread for abstract art.

we are transcending the boundaries of mapping

Doing some work on koth_numbers:

this is like that fable with the sleepy shoemaker and the fairies who make his shoes while he is asleep. except with hammer
they are probably goblins or something

 

[tyler]

i guess someone really really wants hella done

 

[Nicknam4]

That looks really good yyler.

 

[LeSwordfish]

I dunno that i like the building made of two props. Hell, with the observation platform i dunno if i'd put any buildings there, just the beauty of nature (i.e fuckton of trees)

Very basic out-of-bounds detailing for RED side of koth_montane. It's WIP and pending style-wise.

 

[Penguin]

yyler, I am concerned about how eclectic the style of hella is.

Explain pls

(I think I will probably take out those buildings btw)

I think Hella looks sweet, bro.


(That was terrible and I apologize for it.)
