in this very famous CS map you fight your way as a miniature terrorist or counterterrorist through a kitchen with fridge, oven and other stuff.
there will be lots of food and other (usually) small things in this map as you can already see

Yay, now we need mouse gostek.

Nice color scheme -- reminds me of Toy Commander.

The only thing I'm not crazy about is the product placement, mainly due to it clashing against the style and design of everything else. Those images are too real looking, and they're too flat. Redraw them to get them a more 3-D slanted view? I think that'll help them blend in. Also, who puts chili and cigarettes together in a cabinet?

Nice, I like that massive window in the background and the light globe, it makes the gostek look small even when in mid air (a good thing).

I think that black and white tile part should be a little more opaque, as it is now, to me, it stands out too much.

I don't really mind the realistic products, there isn't much else you can do other than get the pictures off the internet like you have done. I just think you need to add more things in the cupboard or add some shadows for them because they look a little out of place.

It's looking great so far.

SHADOWS! great idea, thanks man!

only problem is that i cant handle making transparent PNGs

i will try to give all the products a bit more of a cell shading look + slight black borders.
i will also reduce the contrast of the black & white tiles

Note the cat food can you're using is displayed in an isometric viewpoint despite everything around it either being a head on shot or a flat 2-D view. Try to better blend in the cabinet's contents so they mesh together better and don't stick out like a sore thumb.

Looking forward to the map's completion.

Avarax · « **Reply #6 on:** September 12, 2006, 07:31:11 am »

he, i removed that catfood can already and replaced it with another straight head on shot (a sneeze box?!)

EDIT: wouldnt it be ironic to place a healing polygon at the cigarette package?

Can you make a cat thats filled with ''bloody deadly'' polygons on this map?
btw, looks strange for cs style.

I don't like the real pictures, the 2nd picture looks good with the lightbulb and window in though

PeteBone · « **Reply #9 on:** September 12, 2006, 03:06:18 pm »

more one cs map lol, it owns

SistemX · « **Reply #10 on:** September 12, 2006, 03:59:28 pm »

Actually it sort of looks like the cabinet is supported by that beam in the bottom corner of the first screeny. Are the checher black and white tiles the floor? Looks like it is, but it's on a differnt angle then the cabinet and makes it look like a cupboard high about the floor. This will be a pretty cool map non-the-less, it remind me of...that game.. with the little green army men, waging war against the tan ones. GRR.

i dont really like the product placement in here either, maybe as a suggestion you try making your own products like "avarax cat food" or something like that.

other than that, looks good so far

Keron Cyst · « **Reply #14 on:** September 13, 2006, 05:16:30 pm »

Woo, nice lighting effects.

...

the light entering the cabinet is coming at a perfect 90º?

PeteBone · « **Reply #15 on:** September 13, 2006, 06:05:53 pm »

Plonkoon · « **Reply #16 on:** September 14, 2006, 05:55:06 pm »

Interesting, I'll like to see how this turns out.

Hootie hoo · « **Reply #17 on:** September 17, 2006, 11:50:02 am »

Hahahaha!
That looks great!
I just can't wait for you to finish, I like it a ton already!

You should have the left stove burner thingy on and as a lava/hurt/death poly.

Boxo · « **Reply #18 on:** September 17, 2006, 12:04:52 pm »

Well if you want to make the foodstuffs fit better in the soldat world try increasing their contrast with some program. They look out of place cause everything else is so colorful.

WHERE'S THE FRIDGE?!?!?!1!1shiftone

lol, I did this like haflway through a while ago, then forgot about it. but your's beats mine hands down. besides the fact that the friedge is gone, it looks great! there's a few things I woulda done differently (move the checkerboard floor background beneath the middle path going over to the stove over to beneath the bottom route, and vertically squished. then replace what used to be the chekerboard area with just normal white stucco or whatever that texture is in the real de_rats beneath that part). maybe make the shelves reach the floor, or go a bit further down, and have the rat-poison somewhere, lol), but other than that, this map rocks!

hey, do you mind if I take it and mod it so it's like de_rats1337?
