This was my entry for a 72 hour mapping competition run on TF2maps.net. At the turn in point for the contest it'd had 45 hours work on it, it's now at 52 hours work and ready for wider circulation.
Bear in mind this only had two short tests with players before it had to be turned in for the contest so the layout isn't perfect. So if you have feedback on that, I'd love to hear it!

And here's an overview of the whole thing:

For anyone wondering if I'm still working on tc_strata: yep it's passed the half way mark of detailing, you can expect to see that later in the summer.
Really cool look !
I like your use of props.
Does that train in that picture move and kill you?
Oh hi there, yet another tf2maps member bringing us amazing things
Damn Youme and his immense maps. Never gives the failures a chance!
(Also that's awesome, when's gameday?)

Sadly, no.

I'm not running it on TF2M for a while cause of the contest.
Can you walk on the bridge where the train stands?
[QUOTE=Strikebango;30928709]Can you walk on the bridge where the train stands?[/QUOTE]
Why yes you can.
Love that train bridge, would be amazing if it did move.

Is that train a vanilla prop? I don't remember the tanker cars.
I was really hoping that the train moved + killed you, but I'm no map maker so I don't know how hard this would be.
Are you going to submit it to valve?
[QUOTE=S1N1337;30929899]Are you going to submit it to valve?[/QUOTE]When will people understand that custom maps don't work like models, you don't submit them to Valve. Valve are the ones looking around the community looking for these maps and once they find one that looks "Valve quality" they play a few rounds to see if it's worthy of being packed into the game.
My mistake, I thought I remembered seeing that you could at least link it to valve.

You act like we're supposed to know this.
[QUOTE=Eeshton;30930088]You act like we're supposed to know this.[/QUOTE]And whenever these threads pop up a good 2-3 people say "submit it to contribute/Valve/etc." despite me and other correcting them each time. Sorry if I came off as a jerk but after having misinformation spread in every dam one of these threads in kinda gets on your nerves.
[QUOTE=S1N1337;30929899]Are you going to submit it to valve?[/QUOTE]
Yep, I'll email it to Robin at some point, already showed Dario (goldrush/badwater/t-mountain) some screens but I don't think he's on the TF2 team any more.
Also I hope to be applying to Valve later in the summer after tightening up my portfolio.

yep, no custom content at all in this one, I can't think of any places they're used in Valve's maps.
TPG get outta ma thread!
Haste makes Waste... or is that Icarus makes Waste? I still can't remember
TF2 kind of makes me want to map just because I love the industrialized styles.
I got into mapping about a year ago and my computer got borked and I haven't mapped since, though everytime I see a map, it makes me want to map more and more.
This is beautiful.
why do you put so many ducks in your maps
Who doesn't love rubber duckies?
Hey, great map, but there's a problem with one of your doors.

I noticed this on Hoodoo stage 2's side passage around the first checkpoint as well. Basically when too many people are at your door the thing just locks unless every player steps away from the door. This doesn't happen on other maps, so I'm just pointing it out here. In real games eventually players get wise and walk away from the door but since the bots aren't smart the whole map comes to a crawl.
Cheers for pointing that out, I'll take a look at it, that door is tricky because it's opened and closed by both players and the cart, greater chance of it breaking.
If you get hired by Valve, does that mean you'll stop visiting us? D:
Oh how I wish my maps were this good.

and a leak of Meet the Pyro.
