Maestrala

[sinsane]

Maestrala, or "Maestral" in English, is a map situated on the Dalmatian coast. I've used a lot of reference images from Zadar The map features a unique middle design with wavey roads and drastic elevation changes which provide exciting yet renewing gameplay. The name refers to a certain north-western wind that breezes through the Aegean area during late summer afternoons. Shoutouts to my Croatian friend, Boomer, for helping me with the name.

This is the first map i am ever entering into a contest and i've never truly finished a Counter-Strike map. Hopefully entering one into a big contest will help me finish a map for once. For now, i only have A-Site done. Workshop post is coming soon!!

Edit: workshop link available!!

LEGEND - THIS IS THE BEST MAP!!!

I've updated the map with a ton of bug fixes that fix bad angles and a lot of other problems. Shoutouts to Gzey and Indo4 for helping me out with those. The map will soon be playtested!!

Hello again! I am still polishing the map a lot using feedback from friends. I have closed up one of the arches on A as it was the root cause of a lot of broken boosts on the site. I've also added a side entrance to B that will hopefully make CT retakes easier, as right now you can cover up the entire site with a few smokes.

These updates to the map will be pushed out later today.

Hi, long time no update. Unfortunately, i think i am going to have to abandon this map for the time being due to me having no time to work on it due to my job and such. I hope i can pick up this map again later in the year but for now i have no time to work on it. The map also has lots of glaring issues which require complete layout reworks, which would wander off the ideas i had for the locations.

update: have started working on the map again but it's outside of the contest
