    Hello everyone. I have been working on this map for about four and a half months now. Here it is:

    cp_gydan

    Current Version: Final Version

    Map Type: Control Point / Attack and Defend / One Stage

    Recommended Players: 12-24

    Compile Time: 16 Minutes 31 Seconds

    BSP – 35 Seconds

    VIS – 1 Minute 33 Seconds

    RAD (LDR) – 7 Minutes 2 Seconds

    RAD (HDR) – 7 Minutes 13 Seconds

    Final change log:

    - Added nodraw brushes in front of the blue gates to prevent shots being fired through before the round starts.

    - General cosmetic additions such as lighting, models, etc.

    - Added playerclips to prevent certain get under the map exploits.

    - Changed the gate from D to A so that it kills anyone who tries to stand in the way and keep it open.

    - Widened some doors to make it easier to move through.

    - Added areaportals and occluders in an attempt to fix fps lowering areas.

    ======================

    Beta 1 Change Log

    - Altered spawn times: starts at 7 blue - 11 red. When A is capped 7 blue – 10 red, C is capped 6 blue – 9 red.

    - Added gates to the blue tunnels to prevent rocket spam and spawn camping the tunnel.

    - No longer able to build stuff on the edge of the cliff face in order to stop griefer engies from building teleporters and having people jump off.

    - General cosmetic additions such as lighting, models, wires, and brushes.

    - Stopped sentries from being able to shoot through the two trees that are in the play area.

    - Added a second exit for the blue forward spawn.

    - Added a sniper spot facing toward C (in the building that leads to the B bridge).

    - Added nobuild in certain areas, to prevent unfair advantages for red (mainly the blue tunnel).

    - Cut out a window so there is another exit into C.

Anyway people here are lazy, including me, i bet if you showed the pictures inside your post you get more respons, Just a guess though. I watched the first picture and it looked cool. but then again i don't know anything about mapping or TF2.

    That's fantastic, now maybe the last three of you could actually post something about the map, it would really help out.

    Looks like a solid start. I'll checkit out when I have a chance.

    Also, I agree with everyone else, I hate links to external image hosting (particularly fucking imageshack). If you include images directly in your post, it's convenient and it allows the screens to be easily compared with one another. You can actually upload your images and imbed them in your post directly so they aren't reliant on outside hosting.

    There. I've done it for you. Consider this a very important part of map presentation. Look at all the replies above, yet you still didn't do it. It's a good looking map. Don't hide it away behind links no one will ever click.

    The map looks pretty good yes, the only thing that hits my eyes is the white roof in the second screenshot...
