Lighting and bloom intensity are also absurdly exaggerated. @Xanthi Hope it's an issue with the Salerno update and not anything on my side. Hope you guys inform us on what's happening ASAP.

We added atmospheric bloom in our latest update, but it still needs some tuning. You can turn it off in Settings > Video and set atmospheric bloom to disable.

I skimmed the thread for anyone who might have asked my question but I did not find it anywhere.

Are we able to update our map until the 6th after the server list has been created or is today the end of any update?

Thanks!

Have a nice day

[EDIT] Just read on another thread, that the devs might try to keep up to updates but it's not guaranteed. Would be awesome, if on the 5th there was an update on just the maps that entered by the submission date (today).

One of my hardest questions is how can i reduce bot_viewrange in mapname.txt file

Thx in advance for your answer

@modtools For each coop mode in each "AI" block you put:

"ai" {

"max_vision_range" "200" }

thx xanthi

Well, I have to complain about something here. My map hinterhof (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=790354595) is not on any of the test servers :\

Could you please look into this issue?

Thank you.

Looks like sort of stupidity but...I would like to check your maps but I can't launch your creations.

I use the console with the command line "map blablabla" and it doesn't load it. Strange. Any ideas ?

PS : Also, I launch the game with these commands (same than my CSGO launch command) : "-console -novideo -sw -window -noborder -novid" and I havn't the console in the main menu.

PS 2 : I feel I'm stupid xD

Okay. Here is what you need to do.

Steam overlay:

1) right click on DOI

2) select properties

3) starting parameters: "-console"

Ingame:

1) Go to the options menue

2) bind your console to F11 and ACTIVATE it

3) Go to the title screen and click somewhere on the background

4) press F11

5) type in "map doi_hinterhof"

This should work

Thank you very much Xanthi! Good to see you're on it and take issues seriously. That's what makes you reliable and responsible people deserving praise!

My map is running but not on the test server. Not sure why its not on the test servers now. Awful lot of effort here guys. I'm continuing to update anyway. Sure would like the exposure for feedback.

Probably because you didn't sign up in this thread:

Oh crap I forgot to post the link and game mode info here. Closing the barn door after the horse is out, here goes;

Offensive mode only for now.

Maybe there will be a refresh of the server maps and I can get in. My own fault. Damn.

Wrong thread again

@zastels Did you add a script for your map in the doi/resource/overviews folder? If so make sure the "material" parameter is set to the correct texture file.

I noticed during the playtest last Sunday that at least one map had custom names for the Objectives (ie: fountain, square, etc). I've looked into this, but I couldn't find any info or examples on how to do this.

Any help/info would be appreciated

Hi everyone, I'd like some help in my Hammer map.

I'm having an issue with what i believe is the lighting of my map. I try to load up my map and get the following error message upon a full game crash: Engine hunk overflow!

I compiled without lighting recently and it now runs as it use to. I don't have alot of lights in my level... as far as im aware 20-30 isn't awful.

I need someones help so i can keep progressing with my level as i learn hammer. Any help would be amazing. - Daruth

Also checked alot online, the 'fix' is to disable lighting in console, i don't want this barrier between my map and players.

you could have too many lights hitting the same brush face or increase your heapsize maybe
