Author's Readme/Notes:

Alright, well, this is my first map with displacements... It turned out "ok" but I dunno, it could be much better.
I dunno whether bots work on this, you'll just have to try it and see.
Um, the place up the top is accessible by being shot out of a cannon, IF THE GRAVITY IS 300 OR LESS;
This place contains awps, so, if you don't want awps on your map, don't set the gravity to 300 or below, cause you can get to it using the cannons.

Yes, cannons.
Go up the ladder, press the button, BOOM, you shoot out.
Also, you can get in, and your friends can shoot you out from the outside of the cannon too.
The miniguns were a failure, they DID shoot, but IDK WTF happened.
Have fun.

NOTE: This map doesn't contain buy zones, the weapons on the ground are fully equipped with shit loads of ammo.

@ Rokusho

Thanks a lot for your feedback, I'll see what happens in my next map, or I might make a v2.
This is one of my first maps, yeah.

Starting with the texturing, it is very very basic and the brushwork is very blocky. It just comes across as very amateur and looks like this is someone's first map. Spend a lot more time on making some more interesting brush work and getting some decent texturing in there. Use decals and sprays to really make the map look much better.

The displacements are OK, but you have fallen for a common mistake, trying to make a rectangular displacement, you need to use several displacements sewn together across the length of the map, this will help to hide sharp edges in the displacements.

The gameplay is basic, but the cannon does make it a little interesting and makes the map a little more fun to play. Though the cannon is really the only highlight this map has and it has been one before.

The lighting is boring and basic, get some interesting lighting in there and learn how to change the skybox texture too. A 3D skybox would help this map drastically in terms of looks if done properly.

Overall, it is a basic map, with nothing special, it doesn't stand out and has a lot of problems with it that need fixing. Just keep mapping and hopefully with each new map you will get better and better, try to keep learning new stuff to do in Hammer and you will be producing quality pieces of work in no time.


Will map for food.

If you didn't make a custom .nav file for it, bots won't work. They will go to the corner of spawn and jump up and down.


I have a girlfriend, lolwut?
