wip [L4D2] [WIP] Echo Base: Hoth (Star Wars)

Nicky_Da_B · October 23, 2019

I’ve been working on a survival map for Left 4 Dead 2. It’s another Star Wars themed location, Echo Base on Hoth. Placed during the invasion of the Empire and the Rebels evacuation. I think this is a perfect survival scenario. It fits the similar themes and action of classic last hold out stands such as the battle of the Alamo, Thermopylae, or another L4D2 favorite Helm’s Deep from Lord of the Rings. I hope to bring this battle to life… or dead, lol, and create a fun experience and another Star Wars fantasy. Some of you have already seen me posting pictures on social media such as facebook and twitter. I decided to create a topic on mapcore and post pictures and updates here as well. Hope to talk to other mappers as I develop the experience.

Not much, but a start. Everything starts in the dirt room.

getting a custom model into the engine is a lot easier than I anticipated... although it may just be my 10 years of experience in similar areas at this point. lol, well. now i know I can import custom models. and i have a pretty generic idea of scale from maya to blender to source.
