[csgo] de_flip - I haz questions

[Gap]

Hey there, Mapcore community!

 

I recently (~1 month ago) started to make some Counter-Strike: Global Offensive maps. It's a lot of fun, but I never reached a point where I "finished" a whole map, simply for the reason because I never liked the whole layout.

 

de_flip (I might change the name later on) is my latest layout, following the A - mid - B pattern. When I was done with the main layout, I started thinking about a "unique" theme: a German historic district ("Altstadt" as we would call it in German). I have enough examples, but I'm not sure how to make my map look good.

 

This is the current version of map (without details) - the yellow lines show areas which are hidden:

This is, what the buildings should look like:

Sooooo do you guys have some good tutorials on how to detail levels or on how to make/find your own textures? What do you think about the layout?

 

As I said, I would call myself a noob.

 

Thanks!

Try checking out 3kliksphilip tophattwaffle on YouTube. Also, maps don't just take 1 week to finish. They take time

Didn't know tophattwaffle yet! Thanks for the suggestions

 

(and sure, this map is far from done, will take some months  )
