Veeeery pretty map, loved every inch of the visuals, another masterpiece!

As to the gameplay, I can't say much about it, since we were not 5v5 and it was difficult to defend the B spot without enough teammates, so I would like to postpone my judgement about that until another playtest, but what I fear is that the AWP might be pretty OP on this map, and the team that has 3 AWPs grants themselves a lot of mapcontrol. The terrorists might also have the problem of not being able to smoke off some areas, but these are merely assumptions. I made some layout suggestions and spotted the areas that are to dark for my taste.

I made a layout suggestion, since I wasn't too happy with it, because it felt pretty cramped (and early on also confusing) for me. Maybe you'll like some of the changes I suggest, maybe not. It's up to you of course.

Thank you guys for your feedback. I gonna take them into consideration for my next and probably final version.

About the rotation time: this is really bothering me as well. I am playing with some ideas right now to counter that problem... Here is something thats on my mind:

Hey, I would like to playtest the latest version of de_bermuda_rc7 as well, with some changes in the gameplay, so it won't play like CoD and more like a proper CS:GO map.

I still haven't thanked you for your feedback since the last time it got tested, sorry for that and thank you for your feedback! I listened to everything you guys said and tried to make appropriate changes, at least in the layout.

Just a heads up: The water still deals damage (merely 2dmg/instance though) and the textures are the same, please deal with it. And it's going to be the last playtest for this map, if everything plays out well that is.

sorry guys, but the radar didn't work in the bsp I sent, but the following bsp should work fine with the radar: http://www56.zippyshare.com/v/75439815/file.html

I was working on a radar today and experienced some difficulties. However, here is the map with a stand-in radar: http://www56.zippyshare.com/v/75439815/file.html (FIXED!)

Hope it works fine.

I would also like to take part in the playtesting

I'm going to compile my map tonight, so it should up and going tomorrow evening. And since I never used pakrat: do I really have to add the _radar.dds picture into the mapfile? Isn't the filesize too big then?

Quote from Despo357

You should keep this lighting. Darkness is a part of the gameplay of counter strike, like some places in de_dust and de_dust2 by exemple. When you can't see clearly, you just have to buy night vision googles.

I cannot fully agree with this statement. Though darkness is a part of csgo, it should be used wisely and only in a few spots. I would give it a daytime environment, its much easier on the eye and you do not have to concentrate your eyes like 100% of the time, it's very exhausting and no fun. And you cannot buy nightvision goggles in csgo... not sure if despo was trolling in that regard or not.

Seems like this doesn't work the way it's supposed to. I've set it public now.

I would also like to have a playtest of de_bermuda, if it's cool with you guys.

ERMAHGERD WHY DIDNT FY_TEPANECA MAKE IT INTO OPERATION PAYBACK?! THAT MAP WAS SOO GOOD~ *sobbing slowpoke*

Hey guys, I'm new here and just want to introduce me with some screenshots and a problem that I'm facing while working on my current project: de_bermuda

These screenshots are not very up to date, some details as well as more textures were added, but I didn't make a final HDR compile so far, since I am not finished with some parts. If the final compile is done I gonna add a new thread to the 3d forum.

Now to the problem that I'm facing: When I'm adding a 3D skybox to give the map a greater horizon, the water starts to cast a dark shadow on the ground close to its surface. The result can be seen in the first picture very well. And without a 3D skybox everything looks good:

Can anyone help me out there? Would be pretty neat if there is a solution to it.
