Wow. Are those premade assets or did you make the models and textures yourself?
Looks like an amazing port either way.
:D

What models? Mostly everything is brush work. Adding custom textures and models makes map sizes unreasonably large and no one ever wants to download them when joining a server playing the map. I try to use everything that comes with the game as I can, and will only resort to making custom textures if it is necessary. As for custom models, I can't find any exporters for Maya 8.5 or above.
Also, its not a port. The map is completely original, it just carries over the same idea/concept of the UT2K4 map - that is a moving vehicle as a map.

Valve doesn't do that for all their maps either. The engine should just have a maximum area required to walk on or block player movements to prevent this, sort of like how it has a maximum height to work as a step.
Player clip does the job. Also yes valve does do it, not for the entire map but they do put player clip into maps where this issue is.
Looks cool, gonna try it now.

Well, I didn't mean port per se, just the fact that you recreated a map from UT2004.
Re: Released another TF2 Map - CTF_Convoy
he didn't recreate anything.
besides the fact that the map is atually A vehicle.
Re: Released another TF2 Map - CTF_Convoy
Well calling the map completely original isn't exactly accurate to me. 2 trains, desert, moving. I don't care if he meant to recreate the map or not, even though the original is an assault map, he did. He could have made say, 2 ships in the sea along side each other to be a bit more original, so cry moar everyone.
Re: Released another TF2 Map - CTF_Convoy
that's like saying EVERY fps is a remake of some other fps man :\
Re: Released another TF2 Map - CTF_Convoy
Lord of the Rings is about a guy who has to kill aliens and destroy an evil ring, that's a totally original idea for a game.
Oh, wait.
But awesome map anyway.
