The extended time limit on Swizzle’s
map was awesome :slight_smile:



See you all next week :slight_smile:

#385

So were playing tonight :smiley: looking forward to it
also to try out the updated map from swizzel… is the update downloadible? (i allready have the old one (2 weeks ago) )

:smiley:

#386

is kromano’s map up for download?

cgS maps = kicka$$! :thumbsup:

#387

The next version’s going to be available for download in a few hours. I have a few things to update and then it’ll be ready.

#388

You make me all giddy, I’ll have it uploaded once I compress it… Cubemaps bloat map size considerably so if it’s playtested I think everybody MUST download it before joining the server. Uncompressed it’s 78mb (and I don’t even have any custom materials or anything in this map). If the every player tried to grab my map from Akin’s server, I think it’d implode.

Sadly, I’m going to be out this evening so I likely can’t join in the festivities. I’ll try to bring my laptop with me but it’s not really TF2 material. If I can’t make it and my map is run, please please please leave comments in my map WIP thread (in my signature) so I can make improvements! I’ve had several ideas for new maps and different concepts in the past few weeks, but I’d like to work this one to completion first.

Pretending gameplay is flawless, this is pretty much the map in its most complete state, it’s only lacking soundscapes and a 3d skybox to add life to the arena.

Swizzle pointed out in an earlier version that I had some pretty dark areas that were difficult to see in, I guess my gamma is higher than most or something because it seems allright to me, if you spot areas like these screenshot them for me so I can fix the lighting. There really shouldn’t be any fullblack zones.

Enough blabbing. Whoosh!

I most likely will be able to join in as well. Definitely stoked for tonights match :slight_smile:

#390

Uploaded escherhaus beta to rapidshare, 34mb archive. I wonder why it’s so much larger than other maps I’ve done complete with custom content to boot.

If I can make it, I’ll see you guys tonight, otherwise have a blast and hopefully I’ll see you around next week.

If there are any problems with the file, I’ll be unable to do anything about it until it’s too late as I’m leaving home now.

#391

I haven’t played in a few weeks for several different reasons but I’m hopeing to join tonight… I have no idea how to install custom maps when downloaded from a site and not through the game. I guess I’ll figure it out…

#392

its actually really simple, if your versed in quantam physics that is. Jokes.

For me I put all custom maps in to this folder

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\YOUR STEAM NAME eam fortress 2 f\maps

It should work just fine that way :slight_smile:

#393

cool, thanks!
I’ll download it tonight before the match:thumbsup:

#394

drag and drop maps to

\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\STEAMNAME eam fortress 2 f\maps

:thumbsup:

#395

Extract the rar or zip file and place the bsp file in your maps directory.

Steam\SteamApps[i]youraccountname[/i] eam fortress 2 f\maps\

… said the crowd. :smiley:

#396

Sweet… tonight we’ll be trying out Swizzle’s and Kromano’s updated maps.

Server is going up now, tonight’s match starts in about 1 hour. :buttrock:

#397

Woooo! Bring it on baby!

#398

I’ll have an update for my map before the game starts tonight. The caves persist in being a real bitch to work on, but the intel rooms are starting to look pretty sweet.

#399

Or… maybe not. This compile is taking an unusually long amount of time.

#400

Good times tonight gang!!

#401

Awesome match tonight everyone!
Kromano - Your map is SICK! Awesome work man - we had a blast in it tonight. :thumbsup:

See everyone next week!

#402

As long as you know what mod the map is for, you uncompress the BSP file to your maps folder, I.E: \Steam\SteamApps[USERNAME] eam fortress 2 f\maps
If there are more files than the BSP, there ought to be better install instructions along with the map (unless it’s an early beta map like ours here).

Akin, I wonder if we could do a followup battle Saturday Night after my next final exam, I’d love to check it out with everybody.

#403

Aw, man, how comes the server is always full when I am NOT there? I’ve been home last night but was fighting with flu and really did not feel well enough to join.
