Is there any particular more specific theme you're going for yet? Location? etc.

I am going for the general feel of the new Nuke so I guess an Clean(ish) American storage facility.

I know they are a bit boring but I hope I can make it look unique and pretty while still being playable.

More work! Still very temporary, more just getting a feel of what it could look like. Still fiddling with light on bushes so that is why the shadows are a little broken.

I think the CT spawn rocks are too flat right now along the top and could do with some additional foliage. I also want to make some sort of cool looking building atop the hill next to the silo. The small room will be the guard box.

As always, I love feedback on what could be fixed or changed!

First of all: Please upload the latest version to the workshop, so we can ahve a closer look at it!

in the version we got so far are some minot clipping issues, ofc typicaly at doors/gates like on Site A.

At some places you've got some very thin walls. Right now there are no real textures, and of course this might work if you choose a suited one, otherwise it might look a bit strange.

I found some very nice potential AWPy sightline near Site A but dunno if that might be intended.

Thanks a ton for this very useful feedback!

I still need to do a full clipping pass and I will remember these spots when I get round to it. As for the sight line, I have been meaning to rework that passage for a while, it feels very off. I will take that into consideration though when remaking it to stop another long angle.

As for the thin walls, I will have them as panels of metal or the such, more temporary pieces laid against the walls than connected structures.

Thanks again.

New Update! 

Please Note: This version is NOT currently on the workshop!

I have almost finished blocking out CT with rocks and foliage as well as adding some textures and more detail to the buildings. I have also started to add rock faces throughout the map including the back of B bombsite.

As always, any feedback is gratefully received and always considered when improving the map.

I really like the direction this is headed.

those rocks are really nice.

Small Update:

Started work on tweaking mid ready for first stage of textures. Some changes include removing a hiding spot on T side, giving CT more room on balcony adjusting the CT entrance ways. I have also changed the colour scheme on T side to orange rather than yellow. Another smaller tweak is with the geometry of the CT to A connector to remove some bad angles and make it flow better.

Have also collected almost 40 reference pictures from de_nuke to work from and help make the map look cool:

Just now, 1488 said:

thinks he's referring to the fact that you're referencingp pictures of Nuke instead of choosing an original theme, just my interpretation though

Oh, I am just using de_nuke's for as a rough guide and looking at it's techniques for making plain surfaces and areas appear detailed yet still new and uncluttered. I am not planning to copy anything 1:1, more just use it for inspiration and little tips.

Maybe you planned to expand this, but how it looks now it looks like a raincatcher
