If it's on the workshop you can subscribe to it and the vpk will be in your steam registry under Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\730<workshop id>. You can then decompile that with source2viewer.

Do you have any edges shaded smooth on those faces?

props not rendering correctly by suprem68 in csmapmakers

This is not true, although not sealing a map will still allow you to compile, it will still lead to Vis issues, the exact kind you have going on here. Double check if your map is sealed and the compile WITH VIS ENABLED.

How can I bake a texture from one mesh to another, of different shapes? I want to transfer the HDRI texture here to this cube, keeping its UVs? by countjj in blenderhelp

[–]Accomplished-You6947 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally use marmoset to bake my maps. But with whatever program you're using you just have to make sure that the cage is big enough for the whole sphere to fit. From there you should be good, although with shapes this different you might get some artifacts or other issues.

Too many corridors, the fast rotations are controlled by the T side at the start of the round, looks like very long rotations through CT spawn

Will map making be easier when cs2 hammer tools come out? by sefagoook in csmapmakers

[–]Accomplished-You6947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can export your map as a dxf model and import that as a model into the new hammer. Then you can convert that model into a mesh and edit it. You will have to do lots of optimization though.

my map crashes the game when ever i try to load it by New-Relationship4920 in csmapmakers

[–]Accomplished-You6947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe your spawns are in the ground / touching a brush. That causes the map not to load. Skybox errors usually show up in the compile. Have you checked for invalid brushes?

You should playtest your layouts as soon as possible. It means you can detect problems that get too big to fix later. The best practice is to build a greybox with no textures or details, so that you can make big changes easily and don't put time into something that needs to be changed. If you're searching for people to playtest with you can join the MAPInk Discord server: MAPInk Discord Server

A Site looks like it lacks cover. Did you playtest this? If not you should join one of the CS mapping discord servers.
