Just to give a heads up here, the first expansion will likely be focues on more destroyed versions of vehicles and buildings. Aside from that we planning on adding either more Vietnam style props (both military as well as nature stuff) or African Front props. Nothing is set in stone yet but this seems to be the most likely direction we'll go

Coolio, can't wait. Any particles planned for that update?

Another headsup: getting through these hedge archways is a real pain (you barely fit through the hole in the collision model). I suggest tweaking collision mesh for it.

Got some edited materials and a few models people could use in their maps, for now it's just a handful of materials - one edited brickbeam texture

and 2 wood beam overlays you can use to add detail to the buildings:

also got recompiled, resized cattail models (models come from props_swamp, used in cp_mountainlab) since I needed a little bigger ones than they were originally.

If I make/edit more stuff ill toss it into the pack too.

Enjoy:

Some parts of the trenches are underground. I want to make it so that moving over the top of the trenches is a viable,but dangerous option (nearly no cover, mines and stuff).

I also decided to ditch classical spawnroom design (triggered doors, enclosed room) for something along Day of Defeats' spawn areas.

Got a map I'm working on. It's planned to be a 3-point KOTH map (one point is active at a time, and active point changes after 60 seconds from being capped moving the fight to other areas of the map).

Some snapshots taken from within Hammer:

More premade stuff. (Like Textured Craters)

Crater models, yess.

Also:
-Particles for anti-air battery fire and distant explosion flashes for skyboxes
-Smoke and fire particles, smoke signals.
-BOMBS
-AT guns
-Different-sized tank shells
-Spent shell casings (large and medium calliber ones that you could litter around those AA guns, maybe some shell pile models)
-Barrage balloons (with skybox models)

The Backblast - rocket launcher that can fire forward or backwards.

I'll gather up any materials I edit to fit my needs and post them somewhere so you can add them into the next supply drop, kay?

Also, I'd suggest you contact some of the authors of TF2 Vehicle Emporium pack. It has a few really cool vehicle models that would be gread additions to the pack.

Just a heads up - flowerpot model textures dont have alpha channel for flowers:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=733666087

Those models are actually used in cp_sunshine and work fine. They're also in the base TF2 vpk rather than part of the supply drop as they were bought by Valve to use in Sunshine, so i'm not really sure what your problem could be.

Odd. Oh well, I can do without them for now.
