de_colosseum [WIP]

*Edit*

/** Alpha of the map in in the steam workshop now http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=700501278 /**

After taking a break from the map I decided to stop working on, I´ve decided to start working on a new one set in the ruins next to the colosseum (thinking of a location helps me come up with a layout more easily).

This is the location with a few annotions:

And here´s two screenshots from what I´ve done in 5 mins:

All ideas are welcome!

*EDIT* :Layout mostly done.

That half-dome in Hammer looks quite impressive, yet a bit messed up. ow did you create it ?

Yeah, the pic is just like an idea, I´ll change the building so that they´re not as ruined to allow cover and be less open and such. I did the half dome using the carve tool like the two people above said. Don´t worry, I know it´s pretty buggy but I´m only going to use it twice for the two half-domes on the church (b-site is an old Roman church in case you didn´t know).

I used to go to this place once every month when I was kid and I know it pretty well.

Man, it´s Rome. Those ruins are one of the most important Roman ruins. It is an almost complete Roman market and church (b-site is the church). It´s a very important part of Roman history.

Seriously you cant use the carve tool for this stuff, it creates crazy geometry and will become unworkable instantly.

That´s a lot of crazy geometry for sure, but I´m not looking to make terrain with the carve tool. Only using it this one time to create the half-domes. Also, for now it´s its own block so I can remove it in order to create other blocks underneath easily.

Heh, I see your point. Maybe it´s more interesting for me as I visited that place many times when I was little and I´ve always liked Roman history in general. I could make it more interesting by adding some "secret project" or something, but for now it´s "just" blowing up one of the most important ruins in of the Roman history.

WHAT? Didn't even know this was a feature.

I didn´t expect so many people to answer tbh, I have low expectations when it´s me and forums.

Oh, wow. 3D print it and sell it for millions Kappa. It´s a nice tool but I hear it makes it hard to work on when you over-use it

Haha, would be awesome though, but we have to remember this is csgo we´re talking about and not a standalone game (I wish I was skilled and had the willpower to take the job of making an actual game)

Tho in all seriousness , don't use the carve tool..

Don´t worry, the two half domes is the only thing I´ll be using the carve tool.

It was the only way I could come up to make that.
