  • [CS:GO] De_Roswell (WIP)

    • SultanRankin
    • January 15, 2020 at 10:28 AM

    Hey folks, I've wrapped up De_Roswell for now after an initial art, audio, lighting, and optimisation pass until I can locate an artist willing to help out with custom art assets.

    Would still love to hear all of your feedback should you find the time!

    Workshop Link

    changelist:

    • Lighting Pass
    • Optimisaiton Pass
    • Audio Pass
    • Curved Stairs at CT Spawn for ease of navigation
    • BUGFIX: Projector no longer falls of its shelf and can potentially occlude bomb placements from Ts
    • Placed Rubble beneath CT drop into Mid to offer better navigation
    • Moved T-Lounge radiator to another wall to avoid unfair angles for CT to abuse
    • Lowered bunker shelf heights to step up height to avoid clipping issues
    • Added displacements to terrain
    • Added T-side grenade bounce into Barn/B-Site
    • BUGFIX: Added an extra CT Spawn
    • BUGFIX: Fixed collision issues allowing players to escape out of the map through a window
    • Updated Radar

    Thank you for all your feedback pal, it's really appreciated!

    - I can certainly add a bit more height variance within reason. The assortment of cover is destined to be milking pens for cows (useful for Ts to bunnyhop and get another angle for cooperating), still exploring ideas for what the other freeform cover is going to be

    - The B connector into the barn from the choke, or from Mid? Can you clarify which head peaks as well as I didn't find any in previous playtests.

    - I could make the windows at B site's barn breakable for Ts. The ceilings in both bathrooms and lounge (Ts route to A site) both feature ceiling windows to throw a smoke into A site's sniper perch, but not the entrance into A site itself

    - I'm glad you like Bunker! It's intended to be a safer CT rotation route that can also be clambered over. If needs be, I can rotate the stairs into bunker from being 90' degrees parallel to 45' degrees facing either bombsite for ease of legibility. Thoughts?

    - The blue and red cover elements being the generator and the garage-like tools storage? Those I can fiddle with but I'm glad you brought it to my attention

    - That's the plan with the skybox! Just focused on the playable space recently, the OOB area will be dolled up too

    Once again, thank you for your kind words, reassuring to say the least :)

    Hello again folks!

    I've been quietly working away at De_Roswell's latest pass in between shipping Man of Medan for release on the 30th Aug.

    Still eager to hear what folks have to say!

    changelist:

    [*] Added vent route into A site for Ts to avoid choke [*] Switched Barn side entrance to be closer to Mid from B route to be more visible for successful Ts [*] Blockout art pass [*] Updated radar with

    Hello folks,

    I've done a third round of iteration on De_Roswell and now I'm looking for more scrutiny on the bomb sites themselves.

    Would love to hear what everybody thinks!

    Workshop link

    changelist:

    • Added A connector from Mid
    • Reformatted CT spawn layout with tighter angles to A site and B site
    • Reformatted Long B with tighter angles from T spawn
    • More cover at B site
    • Redesigned Mid to be more than 2 sniper lanes
    • Reformatted A path from T spawn to not cover so many angles
    • CTs can no longer climb out of B site Barn

    Hey man,

    I see you were working the Transfuzer stand at EGX 2018 in Birmingham last year, I was part of the Snap Hunt team at the time!

    Always interested in helping a brutha' out with their portfolio curation. Please reach out to me on my Twitter, I'd love to do a few rounds of iteration with your website.

    Thank you, that's very kind of you to say :D

    Hey everyone, amateur level designer here.

    Been piecing together a defusal map after learning the ropes of CS:GO's meta (at least to a rudimentary level) and its level editor tools thanks to TopHATTWaffle YouTube tutorials.

    I've been lurking on the MapCore discord for too long so I'm keen to try a constructive playtest soon. More screenshots featured on the workshop page:

    Would love to hear feedback from the pros :)
