Please don't update your map until the 10 finalists of this contest are announced, which will be on the 10th of december.

yes, sure, just let us know and we'll move them for you.

It's much appreciated, but here is the official map collection, without duplicates and submissions that pulled out:

let me know if you notice anything off about it.

Sorry to let you know, but you didn't manage to upload the map to the workshop in time for the deadline (you went over it by around 12 hours). It's really unfortunate but it would be unfair to the other participants to let this pass with that many hours behind the deadline.

You got something great going on there and I hope you'll keep working on it to turn it into something really outstanding.

Our buddy Paranormal made a trailer for DE_Grind and he did a mighty fine job, give it a look!

The theme of the contest was teleportation. My map is called The Crab.

Dude, this deserves a thread of its own, cool stuff!

The map has no skybox nor does it have cordons. Since it's an early WIP you can just use a cordon that wraps around the whole map and keep it activated while compiling. Problem solved.

Or else just google for some YouTube tutorials, I'm sure there is something about it.

Promoted this thread again since it deserves all the exposure it can get, really a great read.

Yeah, that's it. Here is a description of the Mafia (party game) from wikipedia:

Quote

Quote Mafia[/b], also known as Werewolf[/b], is a party game created by Dmitry Davidoff in 1986[2][/sup] modelling a conflict between an informed minority, the mafia, and an uninformed majority, the innocents. At the start of the game, each player is secretly assigned a role affiliated with one of these teams. The game has two alternating phases: night[/i], during which the mafia may covertly "murder" an innocent, and day[/i], in which surviving players debate the identities of the mafia and vote to eliminate a suspect. Play continues until all of the mafia have been eliminated or until the mafia outnumbers the innocents.

I'd also love to give it a try!

I think the biggest issue some have is that the qualifiers are only three(?) days in advance. Which is a very short time in comparison to the past majors.

Did you check your hammer autosave folder? There is generally a few .autosave files which you can open in the editor. You can find the directory in your hammer settings: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Hammer_General_Options

You're making a good point there! We'll change the CT model to SAS with the next update but we gotta keep the Terrorists as Phoenix since the pirates have a voice line about an island, which Namibia isn't.

Let's start a petition to force @ElectroSheep to finish this map. We can't let him get away with this! >:(

Thanks for the compliments and feedback everyone! If you guys wanna have a look at an old greybox version of this map, then feast your eyes on this: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=708575261

I made my portfolio completely from scratch only with html and css, which was a bit too much work to recommend to anyone. But I heard from @grapen that he managed to make his portfolio real quick with some tool and it's fully responsive. Maybe he can give some advice?

Looks really cool Mr. Cattus! Only criticism I'd have is that this light to the right is a bit too strong, which draws too much attention for me.

Also, the nav mesh is old.

There is a video on how to clip spiral stairs here:

I just skimmed through the tutorial and I can't really recommend his method with carve and what not. So I made a tutorial with another approach without carve. You can watch it here:

I love the fact that they try to sell it as a two-in-one build, where they just swap out a sensor dish and remove two small details. I mean, that's just an incredible selling point, right?
