cs_hotel WIP

[Valera]

Thanks
I tried create something between de_lake and cs_estate 
I think extend it more, but i guess then it will be some another cs_militia ) 

[Valera]

Added many new features, like new way to sewers from T base toilet room
And new hall room look, with big table 
Also some windows closed now, for more easy play for CT
For now i dont have more ideas what to add, maybe later

[Valera]

New background views both side

Added new exit from sewers for more easy hostage save

And now T respawn on back of house, so all fights more centered in hotel
Also some new covers and details to map

I not so care about contest, just wanted tried some design and mapping 
Hope someone with good map win this contest, and it will be not some boring classic, or some another dust map with 3 main ways 
Personally i like de_Testbench
Good luck guys 
I leave my defusal map de_plastics as main, coz it have atleast some ballance and tactics 
And almost dont have bad playtests feedbacks

Did some radar work 
Looks nice i think, just simply 3 levels of verticality

[Valera]

New sauna look

I tried make it looks like from The Shining movie
But white floors and celling not fit so well
So its little diffirent

(its reference photo)

Main alley looks like this now
With cover on left, big and clipped
And cover with boxes for little camp on right 
Hope this will little help CT side 

(also i tried do some shining hotel, but original one is too big, so its short version)

Curious, I know how to make radar inside hammer but have no idea how to make it multi as player goes up and down each level. Can this be done in hammer or are you forced to use radgen tool?

Yep, only radgen coz it have special tool for levels(but maybe hammer have some trigger idk)
Its not hard as you think, just put radgen_divider on height where you need radar change level, it can be anything, not floor exactly, just height itself 
And dont put divider on main floor
And even if radgen create some mess - you can adjust it in photoshop - then with material tool convert to minimap file and save
Even if it create flat image, anyway you can use that image like trigger for another level, just replace image and save in same filename
So basically i think you can just use dividers and put some paths for any image, then after radgen create files for each level - just open them in photoshop and replace with your images if you want

I would recommend removing one of the workshop links you've posted. Otherwise it may cause confusion around which is your official entry into the contest. Just a heads up!
