TF2: CP_REDSTONE

Very nice SKDR, nice to see some high quality custom content for TF2. Your content blends in effortlessly to the TF2 style too.

pleasant surprise skdr ~

I like it.

But please dont directly rip the suspended walkways from Granary, thanks.

Looks beautiful!

Hey skdr ! This TF2 maps looks very descend and I really like the brush work. Keep it up !

But I think the gravel' sky a bit odd on your map. So I skeatched you a sky with more white lights that's looks better to me... What's your opignon ?

Ps: I don't own the Orange Box so I can't tell you more about the creation of a custom sky for TF2, but I still open to give you a hand.

[EDIT]: It also work fine with the sky from cp_well and with more blur added to the tonemap controler...

Huh? "Thanks?"

It looks fine SKDR. Very nice, in fact! Though it seems a little visually cluttered in the exterior.

Looks good, makes me want to make a TF2 map.

/shakes fist at Uni timetable.

I totally second Seldoon182 words! Blu sky ftw!

Yeah, I'd love to make a TF2 map as well, but for some reason, I really hate Hammer Editor! :-|

oohh nice to see the good ol skdr mapping again I love it, looks a bit empty at the moment but it's ok since it's still wip. I also think the industrial side could benefit from some curves (chamfered edges).

Look its just a huge pet peeve of mine, people taking other's work and calling it their own, even if its a small piece...

Yours!

Trust me, after being on the Black Mesa team for as long as I have been, you start to get really good at finding stolen work.

congratulations JP for finding that... :-|

I understand you have, apparently with BM, had a bad history with stolen art assets, I've had it happen to me too. You could be a bit less harsh, though, in the accusations and presenting of your evidence. Not like he replied to your first post on it like, "nuh uh man it's all 100% me". a pet peeve.. okay then, still a little like you're making a larger deal than needed.

Map is looking great skdr! Can't wait to see what ya did with the blue sky.

So by using stock content with the right pixel density on some pillars you are stealing?

Seriously, look at the scene, why would he steal such a minor detail, when he obviously has such talent? Stop accusing people, especially when remaking/stealing the design of an entire game.

Level looks nice, still has to get TF2 ;o

Like I said on MSN Skdr, its looking good. Have you got a overview screenshot or sketch?

This is probably one of the more annoying things about this website. You guys are way too sensitive. I didnt make it a big deal, I just proved my point, that is all. And plus I already said that I liked the map, I just wanted to show that you dont always get away with stealing shit.

lol well my point is it didnt need to be proven.. thats what I was talking about.

but whatev, no biggie right.

I just wanna see some more unhindered mapping goodness!

Even if SKDR was directly influenced by that work, it doesn't constitute stealing in my books. SKDR never proclaimed to invent the supported bridge. If I'm trying to create an environment or effect and I know it's been done before I'll definately take a look and be influenced by it. I'm constantly looking at other peoples brushwork, levels, models, textures, effects etc (both commercial and amatuer) similar to what I'm trying to achieve. Sure inovation and originallity are very important but so is the ability to recognise and impliment things which have already been done, especially when building upon stock content. If someone was influenced by my work I'd consider it a compliment, not acuse them of theft.
