I'd like to see a discussion going about my remake (http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=42482.0) of ctf_Hormone.
Overview:

At least I'm willing to replace old Hormone with new remake. The current default was made in sort of rush (without any doubt it'll get into default), so it really doesn't have other than fast made basic jungle theme look.
DC's version looks pretty cool and replacing current default with it, is at least worth discussion. I don't like clouds.
-
The only reason the clouds are in the map is to fill the background and because they fit in the cell-shaded style of the map. I would not complain if they would be removed ;)
-
The style used for the old CTF_Hormone looks more natural to me and I generally dislike the cartoonish look I see in this new version. However, it's obvious that you put down a lot of work on creating this new style and I think there could be an exception as there already are many maps with visuals similar to the old Hormone.
The looks was the only thing you changed right? Cause Hormone is an interesting map in the aspect that the flags are located in opposite bases compared to what they usually are. It provides an interesting gameplay where you may wait behind and not return flags until your own flagger gets ready to score in the enemy base.
-
It is just a visual overhaul. No changes have been done to the layout!
EDIT: Version without clouds attached. Maybe we can start a votecast whether the original should stay or one of the two versions of my overhaul should be implemented instead?
-
I'd appreciate to see the new Hormone as default.. Nice work there !
-
I personally prefer the old one, it looks really nice and just changing the layout seems unnecessary.
-
The layout has not changed a bit.
-
your remake seems a bit buggier than original especially the low part I was bouncing around when just walking over it, otherwise its quite nice :)

Soldat definitely needs more colours than green, gray and brown. If we aimed to have the same general style and theme for each map in the first place then we have failed a long time ago.
