Hey guys,

A couple of years ago a friend and me decided to work on ctf_Eden, a TF2 CTF map:

Time was limited to a couple of weeks, so we had to make sacrifices... Still, I learnt a ton and decided to take some time and document what I learnt in the hope that others might find it useful.

I'm planning to do some more but would love to know what you think and improve so here it is:

This looks awfully recognizable, I could swear I've seen this before :P

But in all seriousness, nice to see and nice to get an insight into your dev process.

Thanks! And Delta, I remember yours as well, with the bridge in the middle!

Any areas in particular that you guys found interesting? Or something I must take with me when writing up the next?

I hope the article contains something interesting for new mappers and vets alike.
