Map I have been doing on and off for a few months, feel pretty close to release. The map is completly finished except for a few small details I have to fix and I have a playtest hopefully coming up.

To be honest I wouldn't use any French overlays at all. There's only one I can think of that's right (Hotel du Cheval Blanc) and they can quickly become the laughing stock of the French players. I did send a report to Valve on each of them and how they could easily be fixed, but they didn't follow through.

I don't expect the other languages to be any better, but I don't know Italian or German well enough to find out.

I made my own for Dijon, and will take the opportunity to reiterate that I'll gladly answer any request for proper french saying and spelling of any overlay any mapper wants to make.

WHat kind of Font do u use for these overlays? I would like to make my own, but what would be considered a good font?

EDIT: ANd by the way, the map looks dope, and sorry to detract from your map, its really looking good.

Map is looking good. :cool:

I truely hate to do this, but I gotta ask for some help. I no longer have any time to work on this map and will not release it in it's current state. I do not know how to optimize and no longer have the time to learn. My map is pretty much finished when it comes to decorations, mini-map, flags, spawns, ect. But I have not optimizated it in anyway beyond No-draw and setting vanishing distance, I have spent easily 6 months on this map and have no desire to just let it sit on my hard-drive. If anyone is interested in helping me with this problem contact me and I will send you a copy. I truely hope someone will help me out, it would be a shame to let my map end here.

lookin good, nice work

yeah, sweet map! i'm sure some pro mapper will do the optimization for you. can't wait for it.

Who helped ripster with solitude? they did a great job in helping optimize that map.

Feel like I'm at the point I'm going to have to start shopping for a playtest...

I'll see about uploading it to our server when you're ready for it to be tested (if you don't mind)!

(So long as it doesn't sneakily change colour to all orange!)

Purple lighting?

From a blue/green sky?

Purple lighting?

Seeing how I am color-blind I don't feel so bad about what you are saying. I also have no way to verify it and everyone who looks at it doesn't complain, but I guess I will have to ask around.

I was going to say the same thing. In the SS, it does look purple, but who knows what it is in game. It looks pretty good so far, I would like to try it out.

Maybe if you send the .vmf to someone they can edit the color to better fit the sky.

not to be rude, but thats exactly what i thought about the lighting... "is this guy colorblind?"

i think a different light color would do the map no bad...

Think of it as a new twist...

If 'orange' maps are "acceptable" a proper map with purple light is moreso!

Perhaps it'll help converting our wayward brethren?
