T's can get to B really fast

Too many walls are "bangable"

B and A have a large influx of hiding spots in the bombsite

There might be too many paths, this could just be me not being 100% familiar with the layout.

I disagree about the first two points and the last one. CTs come before terrorists at the U-room, which is more than enough to go and stay on the bombsite itself (which is closer to the CT spawn).

If you don't have a wall-hack, you're not supposed to be able to wallbang at people frequently (joke), it's just a thing that can be useful if you know a very specific spot to spray with bullets. Sometimes it can help to do the last damages needed to kill a target through a corner but i really don't see this as a bad thing.

And the layout isn't very complicated, it's just that there are like 2 middles (it's the way i see it), but it's still a classic 8-shapped loop layout.

About docks, first of all here i think the layout is still very confusing, lots of paths and interconnections (mainly with the middle which is a mess right now). For example, i tried to sum up all the paths available :

The problem is that the map is huge probably because of that, some paths are really long, i think you should make it smaller and easier (while using some vertical things, make it smart and think in 3D not just flat).

And i suggest to move the bombsite here :

Because currently CTs aren't even trying to defend it, they rush and find terrorists at the warehouse (think about de_dust2, terrorists and CTs always encounter near the bombsites, except the middle of course). Sry otherwise i don't really have something else to say. It's fun to play on some areas but i think the map is too big and too flat.

And i also think you should change your type of environment (at least most of your assets), it already looks too similar to Blackgold

Good luck and don't hesitate to make another playtest when you think it's needed

Thank you, i'm glad you like it.

Hey !

I've just published an article named "Maps of the month" for vakarm.net (french csgo website), most of the maps are made from mapcore members (of course !) so i think you will appreciate it

http://www.vakarm.net/news/read/Maps…-Janvier/5390/2

I hope the translation is good enough

Good job guys !

I just bought the game yesterday and ... I was also addicted oO

It's been years since i haven't found a great multiplayer game (that i really like i mean), so i think i love it for now.
Good job guys, on the first time i started with the training i was like "whoaaa" cause the beginning point of view is really beautiful

But maybe you should fix it (the training), the grenade throwing was corrupted : the only way to pass the objective was to throw a C4 because it has a big explosion range i guess. And after that, i had to put my weapon on bipod on the fence, i did (with the submachine gun) but nothing happened

Sry for my bad english. Good job

Yes Tophattwaffle really does the best tutorials, even after using hammer for years i still learn things in his tutorials ...

It doesn't look like it supports bump mapping and specular though. (i guess i have a reason to test this)

The first 2 textures can have bumpmaps like WorldVertexTransition.

(quote from the Valve wiki, 3rd line)

Hello guys,

I guess you already have made a displacement with a blend texture, and just wanted to quit because you were only able to use 2 textures in your blend ?

Now you should be able to use 4 :

It's new, if anyone can try it, don't hesitate to show everyone here please

I guess Robert Briscoe would have loved it for Dear Esther ...

I'd like to have a bit more informations because, for now, it could be rendered in CS:GO as FMPONE said.

And i also think that Valve is great in animations (physic, facial animation, building destruction ...), and we won't be able to see it in pictures

I really love your level, the architecture is truthful, the layout now works pretty well (at least with bots ), the art is great also.

Good work guys, i hope it's going to be a success (i'll speak about it in the article "Maps of the month" at vakarm.net of course)

i think this isn't a good idea. It was not a good idea either with Seaside (which already was in the first operation).

Valve operations should promote new maps, not twice the same map. I guess they are doing it for de_cache (which was the main reason why lots of people bought the bravo pass), but they should simply pay volcano and fmpone and add it definitively to the game ...

nice stuff, done

you are crazy

good job !

Brute, the creator of the famous map de_tuscan, finaly posted few preview screenshots of the csgo's tuscan.

I find it a bit disappointing... I find it heterogeneous, some things are well detailed but other are just big flat walls/floor with 1 texture.

The map looks fantastic, it's brilliant. Excellent job guys, it's really amazing, you did a great job here.

I made you some suggestions in images :

? The Seine is the river that passes through paris

It isn't in the map and you don't cross it

Quote from Hashtag

Link to the map :

Where is it ?????!!

brilliant, it looks amazing, it's ... paris exactly

I just don't love the classic bleached lighting but it fits to paris well so, i understand the choice.

Good job guys, can't wait to see it ingame (because the images are a bit small right now)

de_cliffs

It basically is a square with a cross in it.

This hasn't changed, it's still a classic global layout for a bomb map. It's different when you take a closer look.

And i agree with Rzl, mid is a strategic place that helps a lot to take each bombsites, it must not be easy for terrorists to take it. If you want to get the middle, you can easily use smokegrenades and annoy the CT of the middle.

Uncheck some Visgroups auto, on the right of the hammer window. For example, you can uncheck hints, areaportals, visclusters, playerclips ...

About the missing content, you have to extract it in your own csgo directory with a packing software (like pakrat for example, that is used to pack your custom content in the bsp), but it's complicated because you have to respect the same paths. So you probably won't really need to see the custom content.
