Not at this time, but maybe later when we've made more progress.

I have to pay a lot of money for virtual stickers, so I can get my virtual gold trophy.
...oh, and they are playing counter-strike. Go Astralis whooo!
Where did you find out about this? Just wondering, since I can't find it on CSGO blog or the ingame menu.

In the final version this should be very clear to the players. At the moment it should be already fairly obvious (I think :p), except maybe on the spawns. But we're definately taking stuff like this into account.

The overview is currently outdated, we made some changes since the last playtest.
Quote from Vaya9 hours ago, Vaya said: Thill works well because it's basically a standard layout with a rollercoaster running around it outside the playing area. This like the rollercoaster housing are used to split up areas and sightlines
I guess the trick is to flavour the map with the theme - rather than dictate the layout

Thanks all!
Quote from poLeminAwesome work so far!!! I like the lighting. Did you drop the "wild west" area?
Yes.
Quote from SkybexLooking excellent. Are we going to see some moving trains or roller coaster carts?
I believe that's a possibility, but not in the playable area

Hello there!
We've been working on this for a while now and we want to start sharing some progress. Everything is still very much WIP, but we'd be happy to get any and all C&C we can get.
Some info about the map: it's being worked on by @BubkeZ, @Yanzl and myself. It is build from the 1.6 version that was released by BubkeZ a year ago (Youtube link).
Originally, @FMPONE took the job to port this map to CS:GO, but due to Santorini he wasn't able to spend enough time to this project.
Its original name was de_mirage2, but we've chosen to go with a different theme and name.
Since then we've been hard at work and a lot has changed both visually and layout-wise. Now on to some pictures!

Hey guys, i'm looking for the .vmf file of the new nuke, can anyone send it to me ? Can't find it anywhere !
You have to decompile it using a program like BSPsource. The vmf doesn't come with the SDK.

Quote from El_Exodus
Didn't think about that one. That was the "problem". :<
But the shaded view looks soo much better!!
I noticed the shaded view doesn't always show tinted textures correctly either. But it doesn't seem to happen to every tinted texture either, so no idea what is causing it. Maybe it depends on whether it is defined by "$color" or "$color2"?
-
Are you using 3D shaded textures view? If so, try just normal textures view maybe.

Quote from El_Exodus
It seems to be pretty much confirmed, that the next map remake by Valve will be Inferno. Alongside the fact, that the new Nuke hints Australia on some decals, it shouldn't be a surprise if Inferno is going to be set there.
What makes you think that?
-
The recently added 2nd UV support for decals could help you out with mirroring the UV, but still have unique sides.

IEM Katowice starts today. First games in about 1 hour 20 from this post. Fnatic vs NaVi which should be a good match to kick off with!
http://www.hltv.org/news/17223-iem-katowice-viewers-guide
No pick 'em challenge this time around?
I believe that's only for Valve-sponsored events.

yeah, but average people just have a cheap big TV, with a sound bar if at best. So… a movie guy could get good headphones, aren't there 5.1 headphones?
There are 7.1 headphones too.

Quote from Vorontsov
@LATTEH You could use normalmaps on models before though or am I missing something here
Yes, but they updated it. The effect looks a lot more similar to lightmapped brushes.

If you post about it in the Private comments of the workshop page they should get a notification. Or just hit up Magnar

Quote from sevin
I opened the .bsp with GCFScape to see if anything was packed, and I didn't see anything. You extracted them from the .bsp? I have this issue with other maps as well.
Yes, I checked with Pakrat to see if any models were packed. And extracted all of them that I spotted. Strangely enough they're all located in a folder called "autocombine/". That folder name and the fact it works just fine (without extracting anything) for most other people and the fact that all "autocombine" props in Hammer look like a combination of regular modular props make it seem something went horribly wrong somewhere for some of us

Quote from will2k
but seriously though, this is gonna suck when you are in the lighting tweaking phase. Source 2 Hammer (or whatever it will be called) needs to be streamlined and targeted at 2016 not 1996.
Valve just released more info about the vrad update. I'm sure you'll be interesed in it
Quote from sevinThe HL inspiration is readily apparent. You are a master texture artist! All the little references you're dropping in are a great touch.
I'm wondering about something a bit unrelated. When you started using the new Nuke assets, did you decompile the map or find them using console commands in-game or is there a separate folder in materials/models for the new assets? I ask because I'm having trouble decompiling the map. BSPSrc does it with no errors, but in Hammer all the models show up as errors. As far as I can tell the assets are in the .vpk so I'm at a loss. This has happened with a number of other official maps, though not all. Do you have experience with this?
Sorry for the tangential question, looking forward to beta1!
It seems for some people it works just fine to just decompile the map and load it into Hammer, while for others it's littered with missing models (like for me). I explained it here how you can fix this (unless your problem is something else, but then just let us know).

Lighting and shader improvements!
Hopefully this will help fixing some of the (lighting) issues people are having around here since the update.
