    I decided to remove them a couple of updates ago, they were a bit too autumn brown ?

    Good job!

    Thanks!

    A new update with a new B-site is coming out on the workshop today (hopefully). It has a clearer identity and feels more robust with cleaner angles, I think you will like it! I also made some slighter changes to mid and A. I will let you know again when it's up.

    I just released a new update for the map based on feedback from fellow mappers and the community.

    Here's a list of some of the changes:

    -Improved optimization -Better clipping -Slight changes to lighting in certain areas -Refined the nav-mesh and added callouts -New custom decals to better fit the theme -Additional detailing, mainly to the ground surfaces -Overall polish -Added better options for grenades between a-long and a, t-mid and middle and from porch (b-setup) to B -Made the stair in upper metro next to A go one floor higher. -The bombsites are now more robust -Replaced the front part of the truck on B due to bad hitboxes -Tweaked the skybox -Removed dead space in T-spawn. And more...

    Please have a look and tell me what you think!

    The map will be tested on mapcore tonight at 21.00. Let's see what it brings ?

    Ok, please tell me if you find a reason for it. Do you need to replace 2 files when you verify integrity of game files under local files in options for cs:go. And does it help to lower the texture quality under video settings in cs:go?

    I'm maybe starting to see a pattern.

    And thanks for the feedback zombi, will fix the B-truck issue.

    Golden is a 5 vs 5 competitive defusal map. I've been working on it since mid 2017 but with a 8 month break until August 2018 when I decided to pick it up again. The goal was initially to compete in the 2017 mapcore competition but I underestimated the time and effort it took to finish the project.

    The map is inspired by the older parts of Stockholm, Sweden. An unknown terrorist cell has executed an attack in the heart of the city. Their objective is to create chaos in the normally modest and safe capital. The Counter Terrorist unit called GIGN from France has reinforced the district since the national police force is inadequate and is struggling to handle the situation.

    Be sure to enjoy the level and I appreciate all the feedback and comments I can get!

    I've upload a new version to the workshop! (Version 4)

    Most significant changes:

    -Reworked the size of the B-bombsite making it bigger and less claustrophobic. -Reduced the height variation on the B-side of the map. -Remade the CT side of mid and made it more open. -Removed the drop area towards A all together to make that part of the map feel less hectic. -Divided the entrance to long A through metro from T-side for better engagements. -Added a vent between long A and mid.

    And much more !

    See for yourself:

    My first upload of the defusal map de_golden (previously named de_stockholm). This is my first mapping project.

    I've done some basic texturing and detailing to get a feel for the atmosphere and theme.


    De_golden is a map set in the older parts of Stockholm, Sweden. An unknown terrorist cell has executed an attack in the heart of Stockholm called “The Old Town”. Their objective is to create chaos in the normally modest and safe capital.

    The Counter Terrorist unit called GIGN from France has reinforced the district since the national police force is inadequate and is struggling to handle the situation.
