WIP in WIP, post your level screenshots!

Been working on a CSGO map. Trying to establish the theme. One of the things I was wondering about is whether the location (it is well-known) and maybe the most obvious map name can be determined from these images. Hopefully it is possible, since that will mean I am on the right track!

Here's some WIP of the entry I wasn't able to finish in time. Still going to finish it though! Currently doing art and lighting rework. Still haven't used any decals or vertex painting which will be the final pass. Gonna get a lot more vegetation in there and lastly some fitting post-process effects.

Looks great. Is it on the edge of a forest? De_forestry?

I'd say de_colorado

Possible but that one mountain looks like k2 and the sky never is that foggy. If it is Colorado it wouldn't take me long to get some references for you, @OrnateBaboon

Thanks for reply guys. Colarado is close! I was going to go with that at one stage, but went with Lake Tahoe. Map will be a trailer park, maybe de_trailerpark or something similar. Some reference images below.

why bomb a trailer park though?

Messing around with a night time rooftop map theme I've been working on.[Blocked Image: http://i.imgur.com/fVcZGBb.jpg]

need to work on windows and small detail. Also a lot of prop work.

A lot of custom graffiti will be needed.

Possible window effect?

Just made this

Very cool man, great work! Are you using baked or dynamic lighting? If you are using baked make sure to crank up the GI as it will help soothing the shadows, they are really harsh right now.

I assume you are going for this kind of lighting? Sorry couldn't find a good ref quickly. If so make sure to brighten up your sky and shadows to match the sun intensity.

Some fog would also go a long way to make the scene read better and help the game area separate from the background

Really cool work, looking forward to seeing more!

hoping to finish this map up for next operation's deadline. Doubt I'll cut it seeing how unpolished it is but would appreciate feedback on what can improve the map:

Wow, this looks insane. I really like the theme, especially with the way you incorporate snow and desert themes into a modern setting. I'd have to playtest it to give proper feedback, though

Just updated workshop if you want to try it out: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=655062003

Mostly just looking for feedback for the aesthetics. I'm pretty happy with the layout.

@kinggambit that looks incredible man, you've really improved since the map you were working on for the contest

I just got back from Seattle last night and got some inspiration, but I'm just about to head out again on another trip so before it passed I quickly pieced together a modern townhouse type scene. Sorry for no compile.

Used a bunch of assets from agency and resort as well, so cheers to those creators!

Since I've had no internet for the better part of 3 months I decided i'd try to make something pretty, even if the gameplay turns out to be bland, or if some things make no sense:

It's a WIP practice map, I hope you enjoy!

Sorry about the video being on rails, and the actual quality of the video being balls. I've had to use Mc. Donalds internet for a while now, and 200 MBs of video takes an hour-and-a-half to upload.

I chose to post a video because you can't hear soundscapes through screenshots.

Thanks to the authors of Agency, and Watersource for their assets!

Some progress pics.

There's still space on the wall of fame, just hit me up if you want to be a part of it.

Back in December we had a media release for Operation: Black Mesa and I posted a few WIP areas from my work on of2a1 (first map in the chapter "Missing In Action" for Opposing Force) and I believe I posted them here too, after chatting with the community at large I made some changes to better fit the atmosphere that was set in the original map, the changes to this effect are mostly lighting based with a few texture adjustments but I've also made some additions to the geometry to flesh out the area a bit more, so first here is the area that was posted in December 2015

As you can see it's quite bright and friendly compared to the original level which looks like this.

So here is how my version of the level now looks, this is the fan room for OF2A1 as of July 2016

[Blocked Image: http://i.imgur.com/1OZo6Dk.jpg]

There is still stuff that needs to be done, my next plan is to work on the particle effects I need for the area and fix up the "smog" that emits from the fans which can't be screenshotted for some odd reason, seems to be a bug that has popped up for us and makes the room look too clean for the lights to make sense in some cases.

Going round trying to first pass the trailers, or at least get the basic shape in. About 13 more to go! Not totally sure about the purple, but it was colour picked from a real trailer. The back one in the reference image. Trying to have every trailer a different colour for easy callouts.
