    DE_Zoo


    First of all, A site is THE shit!

    I really like it, just some polishing and it's done, good jerb!

    About B site, I think it's cool but I dont feel it's solid yet. Maybe play with the placement a little, move it closer or further to the terrorists or even put it underneath the platform since its pretty unused, i dont know. But make it feel more like a bombsite and not like in the middle of a corridor. At least that's how it feels to me. And that grey room behind the bombsite seems pretty unused as well, maybe find a way to make it more interesting/useful (by opening it up?).


    Here some screenshots <3

    Alright, we're going to playtest DE_Zoo and DE_Bagra in 5min, so prepare yourselves!


    Biggest changes of my map are:


    * Removed growling dog

    * Removed T-Link, increasing importance of gaining control of Mid as terrorists.

    * Tweaked Mid by a good deal, harder for terrorists to rush it. Boost into window is now easier

    * Tweaked Timings in favor of terrorists a little

    * Improved overall architecture (less noisy) and made environment more colorful


    * Map is now too dark; lowered brightness by 20


    I would like to test out how the changes impact the gameplay and the atmosphere, so I'd be glad if you could join us!

    Looks beautiful and I really enjoyed running around the map. Only thing that i think needs work is the clipping, there are many spots you can reach that should be closed off, another clipping pass is needed. There was also a spot where you could "wallhack" through a nodraw texture. And there's one more thing, I haven't been to Paris since I was a little kid, but I do not remember it having two suns, I could be wrong though.

    Playtesting sessions are scheduled on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays at 21:00 GMT+1. We playtest a maximum of 2 maps per playtest.

    For map creators:
    If you want your map tested, post in the thread and suggest a day that is suitable for you. If the above mentioned time isn't a good fit, let us know and we can probably work something out!

    Prior to the test you will have to send Roflzomglol one .bsp file, one .nav file and an optional .kv file. All custom content (models, materials, sounds, mapradar) needs to be packed into the bsp. For this, you can use Pakrat. He'll take care of the rest!



    Submissions can be considered accepted if they appear in the schedule, this can take up to 24 hours.


    Reminder: Please give your map a proper suffix like _v03 so that there won't be any problems with conflicting filenames in the following playtests.

    Thanks guys for your feedback and nice words!

    This looks awesome man! I'll check it out when I finish work.


    Did you use your own textures?

    Actually no, pretty much everything is standard CS:GO stuff. Only a few decals and of course the gorgeous skybox are custom; decals are from cgtextures.com and the skybox is from komaokc.

    Yesterday's playtest was fun (although i didn't stand a chance).

    The last version i played (v50 i believe) fellt like a maze to me with brown walls all around and little orientation points. You got that covered by now and it works well in my opinion.

    I saw two minor things during the test:

    Thanks for your opinion and pointing that lamp out, didnt know that one!


    Quote from UnknownPredator

    Those wooden stairs at mid look unfitting and ugly , maybe you could change them?

    Yes, that might be true, I'll try to create something better.


    Quote from ken0x

    Dude i love the map! I was curious what skybox you used for it?

    Its a custom skybox texture by komaokc.

    Alright, after countless hours of fooling around with the hammer editor and many playtests with you guys I finally gathered the confidence to publish my map in the Steam workshop!

    I keep working on my map and a new version is going to come in the next days with further improvements.

    Thank you all for your participation in the playtests, for giving me feedback and patience when teaching me the martial arts of mapping!


    Cheers,
