TTT_Abandoned_Mine

Will you descend?

About the map:
I'm making a new map called TTT_Abandoned_Mine, I'm not sure how long it will take until this project is finished, as I always think of new ideas . Basically, you start outside of an old abandoned mine, You must enter into the mine, to find many paths, traps, and secrets that await you. This is my first map using hammer.

Progress will be updated frequently.

Underground maps are usually pretty difficult, since you have to do a lot of displacement work to make it look convincing.

I wish you good luck though c:

Plenty of resources on the forums if you need help with something, though.

I was thinking about not doing as much displacement, as I knew that would be a major factor in making this map, an underground map without displacement, can still look good though, right? xD

A question
I've got the TTT.fgd, I've added guns & ammo in certain parts of the map, when I compile the map, they don't show up.. Will they show up if the TTT gamemode has been started?..

Since the guns + ammo are special TTT sweps, they shouldn't show up unless you're in the TTT gamemode.

Or if you have a swep pack that specifically loads the ttt_weapon_ sweps .-.

Looks like it's coming along pretty well, especially for a first map.

Thanks

Yea its coming along just fine, aside from the Displacment..I forgot to add that, I don't think I will add any, maybe the map won't need it

More screenshots coming in a few

If you want to add me on steam, I could try to help you out with adding displacements c:

[MetaHaze]

I would add you but, I use a "Unlegit" Steam, sadly..

I wouldn't mind if you "Add me" though. As cracked steam won't let me add, but will let me accept friends

Check your forum PM's.

Would like to know, if it wouldn't hurt the map if I didn't do any displacements in the mine, need a reply soon

Ooh looks like some updates have been made...
