[TF2] ctf_outset

[dewdle]

This was my entry to compo25 over at TWHL. The idea was to remake a map from another game/engine, so I chose to remake outset island from WindWaker. (Which, if you haven't played it yet, is a great game )

As such, there are a few things I'm going to set straight first before you comment. Firstly, the original was singleplayer, and as such I've done my best to optimize (a lot, believe me), but any continuing issues you might have are probably due to how open it is (which I wont change).

Secondly, sniper's aren't as such a big problem as they might seem, mainly due to the layout. Also, I've also only tested at 4v4, which worked well, not sure about gameplay above that.

(I've also taken the liberty of adding in extra bits not in the original, mainly so that it fits into tf2 and also so that the layout works better)

So yeh, screens:

I was looking forward to this map, and I like the fact that you have created a whole new style for TF2 but your lighting could have been way better...

[Freak]

yeah, lightning could be better, and also the displacement work isn´t very good.

another thing i noticed is that you didn´t change the water colour, it doesn´t fit the sky..

but i really like the map

Looks cute =)

Nice work. It has a unique visual style that's fitting for TF2.

Only crits are the previously mentioned water/skybox colour discrepency and map optimisation. It's fairly resource hungry for a small map that's modest in detail.

Apart from the small flaws mentioned above, I like it too. Specially 'cos of the new textures & theme. While sandy western does not look back, this is something fresh. Good work.

Sweet indeed, reminds me of FarCry

[aaron_da_killa]

looks cool . Maybe you could post a few images of the area that you remade from Windwaker?

[PogoP]

I believe that's the area.

[Freak]

the whole island is rebuilded o.O not just that area

[PogoP]

...

Somebody wanted a screenshot of the area, I posted one. Nowhere did I say "OMG HE'S ONLY MADE THAT ONE TINY SECTION!"

[Freak]

xD that wasn´t meant to be angry against u or so lol, just wanted to say that it isn´t just that area
