DE_GWALIOR

Hey all!

So, Kikette and I have been very busy on a new CS:GO map named Gwalior. We managed to somehow make a map in one month. Kikette has done a tremendous amount of work on the art side, and I've been working hard with the mapping so that we can enter Gwalior into the upcoming CEVO competitive mapping contest. The good news is the map is all done, and playable, and I think it's some of our best work to date. The bad news is, I can't release it until after I've first submitted it to CSBANANA for the contest.

As a result, the map will be playable on the 16th of April.

Here's a glimpse of what's to come:

I hope you like what you see, and support us on the workshop once we make our big debut! Thanks

Very nice, looks awesome!

You guys could give that main building (the one on the first screenshot) a bit more polish imo. Right now it looks like a bunch of cylinders with trimsheet textures applied Get some windows and maybe a more interesting roof line in there. Should be worth the effort since it seems to be the main point of interest in the map.

Another thing I'd do is to take it easy on that trim model being used on the building in the right, it gets repetitive very fast: http://i.imgur.com/utk2UzB.jpg

Looks much better when you have large clean surfaces (for breathing spaces) with the occasional trimwork. The guy on the right here is a great example: http://i.imgur.com/l6zD9DJ.jpg

Good crit, I wasn't planning on us doing this one thing since I felt it was "good enough", but we can go ahead and do it now that you've suggested adding some more detail. Thanks >: D

Indeed, looks very good. Maybe a little more detail on the background/3d skybox would be good- looks a quite empty (http://i.imgur.com/oKPAZd7.jpg)

Thanks!

I'll make some changes

Fuck yea man! This is so nice looking thing, it's the reason I didn't even bother spending my already little time on this CEVO-contest, when I saw your and 3Dnj's name in the list of contestants.

yes.. 3Dnj is a real threat, i might need to whack him in the knee and take him out like tonya harding
