harvest in texas

This is reasonably good-looking!
One thing that sticks out to me is that the 3D skybox is really uniform and it's easy to see where it ends.
It could use some pieces that stick out less and some pieces that stick out further; some random buildings; some massive cliffs and so on.
Look at the first point of Goldrush Stage 3 for inspiration.

I also think that using ACTUAL Dustbowl environment light settings here would look prettier than Hydro's environment light.

would be cool if valve did shit like this to maps that are like lush forests and like really grassy in summer if you know what i mean

Man, this is so clean! I hope we see a resurgence of classic new mexico/OG tf2 inspired themeing. Dont get me wrong, its cool to see so many unique maps, but at the end of the day tf2 has and will always be set around useless deserts fought over for nothing :)

harvest in mexico

This looks better than the actual Harvest tbh

I love the Badlands aesthetic so much, thank you for posting, Luigi.

I LOVE THIS MAP SO MUCH, I Really hope it gets in summer 2024

If you want a more unique name, koth_dusty would work.

I can't believe that you're trying to get this map officially ingame, smh. I'm just joking lol. I genuinely enjoy maps that look like they've been made in tf2s og map style. The release / Badlands style feels like a rarity nowadays
