I've got an old DE_ layout based on Monastery's style (from 2015 or around that time) that I'd like to revive, would it be possible to use the assets from this to help me along the way? Full creator credits and so on included, I'll be (re)modelling my own assets as well.

I was shocked to see them not make it but I do see the judges' point, maybe with Mustang's layout not being that great for sure, but the theme was already explored in Monastery.

The A site looks awesome now, you've got clean design in almost everywhere so far

Hey guys, I'm going to have to throw in the towel and withdraw from the competition. I can't get the map to work ingame properly and it's causing me a lot of grief, I've tried to turn functionally everything into displacements and using wallworm (in a way you'd be using propper) to no avail, it's just too much work. It'll take either 2 months to fix it or 3 months to remodel it all and I've not got enough time to make anything by the deadline. Please accept these screenshots in hammer as something that could have been. https://imgur.com/a/k0C0BHx I wish good luck to ev

Wow, my favourite right now. Great job on the middle! Although not sure if that graffiti is exactly fitting in a setting like this.

Hey guys, thanks for checking in again. Since the last time I've had major hurdles (not just procrastinating, that's just me by design) with my 17 year old dog passing away, moving to a different place and my car burning to crisp just before Christmas. It's fine though, the map is still coming along and I'll try my best to make it before the deadline. I've cordoned off T-Spawn/A Long of the map in hammer to see how it looks in game, ignore weird props or bad lighting, I've done nothing about it before pressing compile. I also wanted to share this with you before but never got

If you remove one of terrorist's mid entrances, Middle becomes identical to Mirage. And to mention (judging by overview) the sites are heavily favouring Ts, as you need 3 CTs to sort of hold middle at this point (it's the meta in Mirage which is 1 window, connector and B short with other 2 CTs anchoring sites). But I don't know how this plays out, it could be good.

I went back to old radar to overlay the new one/copy the old radar values onto new one.

The fix I've had to do for my map was to redo the radar back the old way (so it's the pre-2016 image overlays) and put the values from that into TAR made one + used photoshop to overlay/fix the TAR one. I've had a frustrating experience with it as that wasn't the only issue and spent a long time trying to solve it so hopefully that helps you.

That's the reason I'm working on my map, after having people playtest it I can confirm this strategy works if you've carefully planned it out beforehand

UE4 is the only thing OP seems to work with according to his youtube channel/website

Yes the combination of trees and skies like that is what I meant and I'll be honest, it doesn't look pretty in that picture. Why not try it first with players and see what they think, maybe it's not that harsh on the eyes in motion?

Orange skies and pink trees? I'm not trying to discourage you from using the same time of day as I am (oh I definitely am trying) but that's got to look weird. Blue sky is overrated but Pink trees aren't common at all.

Map has been released, there already has been a playtest done by Raidboss community and I think it's pretty positive as the map played out exactly how I designed it to. On to more important things, since this is an exotic map competition there are things I wanted to try in this map just for this kind of competition. First thing would technically be the Mid being horizontal between sites instead of like it normally is between spawns, but it's not that important. The main thing I want to show is https://imgur.com/a/w6JcSXb Fire Exit door, it can only open from inside the

After an insane amount of procrastinating (I will look back at this period and reminisce with sorrow because man, this map would be nearly done by now and playtested to near perfection) I've finally gotten round to making the first radar for the map. Does anyone have access to Terri's Auto Radar that supports instances? My map is made out of 20-30 instances so I tried to compile the source code again from the GitHub but it wouldn't work.. I had to do it manually in the end, still pretty good if I keep an alternate version of the map just for the radar. On a side note
