The mapping team has also been very busy of late, we have 6 new maps that will be featured in our upcoming release, foothills, maricopa, mvalley, snowlake2, kingsmountain & pillage. These new maps provide a great deal of diverse gameplay, we have focused on making the game more exciting by creating maps where the gameplay varies drastically from map to map. Screenshots of these maps can be found below.

Looks cool man, the color of the player models in the light is close, just seems a tad off to me given the environmentmal light / skybox.
keep it up

Looks nice and yes farcry
kinda looks a little like what de_airstrip(?) would look like if sourcified, however I dont play cs:s so yer.. -
brushwork looks nice, some of your displacements look a little strange and more than anything the odd lighting errors with your displacements. On some of the faces where they go thru another brush and light hits them from outside of the map it causes those obscure errors.

Look nice man, I like the dim lighting

Hi boyas,
BattleGrounds Mod for Half-Life2 is currently seeking some fresh developers to help out with our next release which will be huge btw
. We are currently looking for mappers but more than anything else we need an animator quite despirately. If anyone is interested in the mod but has skill in other areas we would also like to hear from you.I think it goes without saying what type of skill we require in the mapping department, generally we have outdoor maps so being able to create nice looking outdoor environments is a must.
If you are interested in helping us out please contact me

lurrrrvvveeeely.
The building on the right of the first pic looks verymuch out of place, its the brick/stone texture you have used tbh.. If it were a darker texture like the rest (not pink) it would look a lot better imho.

Yeah the road is just something i chucked in so i could walk on it, deffinately going to mess it up a lot, im pretty backwards, i make all my buildings first then work out what i have left as far as r speeds are concerned, then ill mess some stuff up~
