do this before you put any more textures down. Get the lighting so you can see stuff first
Thanks for the feedback, and i will decrease the pitch from -50 to -70 so that there is much less shadows. Also if you could do more than just look at screenshots, as I'm more focused on game play than lighting or textures.
A map i started a week ago which is in early stages of development. The layout has been finished and I've just started to texture and detail surfaces. The theme is a rundown theme park abandoned 15 years ago. Why are the terrorists attacking it? Who cares. De_rundown features a classic cloverstyle map design featuring mid offering a re connection onto A pathway and a new entrance into A, and a new entrance into B. Both A and B sports 4 pieces of cover for whoever is defending the site and 3 entrances for whoever is attacking. Ts take 11-12 seconds to reach both sites and Cts take around 8 - 9. The rotation time for CTs is 13 - 16 seconds depending on the route you take. If this could be play tested and critiqued that would be great.

I played a bit on this a few months ago, some of these major problems you might have fixed, but im guessing not all. First problem i noticed was that mid was literally useless, throughout most competitive rotation maps mid always offers new entrances into a or b site and re connections onto paths accessible from t spawn, but this map doesn't add any new entrances into either of the sites, making it useless. Also each site is disadvantageous to anyone holding the site as there is 0 spots for cover, which is a huge problem. And visually i can say that its not terrible, but you can do a lot better.
Looks really great considering you just started mapping a few weeks ago, my first project was dog shit
Layout looks great and once you've greyboxed would love to see screenshots
Quote from NohnsHi! Thanks for the feedback!
Right now apartments are connected with the connecter to B site but i'm gonna changed that based on your feedback
Now to your number 2 suggestion: I don't quite understand what mean. Can you maybe try to do an example on a map in the active duty pool? That would be pretty sweet!
Really any current active duty map regarding mid. Dust 2 has a connector into tunnels and a new entrance onto a. Cache has a connection onto checkers and a new entrance onto a. overpass has a connection onto a b pathway and a new entrance onto a.
I'll be showing what i think is a problem in the layout by circling the areas and numbering them. First off with number 1 unless this is a drop off point meaning its a one way for ct, this is incredibly t sided giving them instant access into ct because cts must have 1 player on mid and 2 on each bombsite, they cant spare another to watch this area to make sure no t's go into ct. And regarding 2 i believe mid is also too t sided, if you compare this mid to competitive maps in the game or even other workshop maps most mids have a reconnection into initial t pathways into a bombsite, and a new entrance into a bombsite. This way its not too T sided and it still gives Ts some options.
