You can't perfect perfection
Edit: Come to think of it badlands isn't perfect.

Will have some fps increase :D

I've always loved the pro viaduct / warmfront / process textures but... badlands is badlands, change is just not going to happen.

Where is all the sand? :<

nope.

The "pro" versions of maps are generally made to balance maps which would otherwise be unbalanced, not to retexture them. Unless he sees a major flaw in badlands and wants to fix it, it's just a reskin. The textures in the pro versions are just to distinguish the map from its regular version, and to supposedly increase fps by removing snow weather.

if you fix the splash problems or whatever on the traintracks at mid then i'm all for it

Will speak to him about it, might not be possible but will give it a try

pls

Pretty sure turts did this ages ago with cp_quake_badlands. I still have the map and stv of the games we played in NMW in my dropbox. In the end there wasn't much of a boost other than the fact that people could see stickies and players a little better.

hard 4 me to see xhair on grassy textures
badlands super visible

Make it so that sand is still predominant, just have grass on the fringes of the map and in places where it would seem reasonable like the sides of the bottoms of valleys and pits (see: koth_badlands's water)
Also pls pls pls smooth out all the random bumps that make complex rocketjumps impossible

Thats your crosshair then, badlands is the only map in 6s that I can think of with the sand colour.

Just put a black border on your crosshair

I think it can be fixed, at least partially.

By using a tool brush, like the invisible barrier one, and putting a wedge of it inside the corner which is causing the explosion to shear off.

why?

#17:
I'm just going to note that TF2 isn't consistent with that list's "Solid to bullets". For example "Invisible" blocks most hitscan. Doesn't block the wrangler though. I did test this.

It looks weird now, at least fix the rails and random holes.

And if you do decide to go with that texture add some floral to it so it wouldn't look so empty. And the buildings will need a touch-up so they won't seem "out of place."

if it aint broke dont fix it

.

I think its nice to have a bit of change, maybe we could release a version with a few bug fixes.

But I kinda like the change. Playing the same old badlands over and over. Its like a old woman. :P (no insult intended to the older female tf2 players I know your out there)

I'm having an argument with a stupid forum admin for a game I work on right now so I'm going to link someone else's spiel about it instead, hope that's OK

Look really nice, I'd love to see this on the next rotation, especially if the splash problems are fixed, and if not, just for the change of scenery

Oh I get what you mean now, I am dumb and thought you meant that you didn't want to see cool rocket jumps anymore

Please if you're actually gonna fix splash damage on mid, fix the damn clipping on spire.

#27 Most of spire is a prop/model so that would probably be harder than normal clipping. What's wrong with it?

If you could outline the problem with the exact problem like yuki did, that would be helpfull. Might not be possible, but we will try.

I like the idea of a retextured badlands, but don't really see the point of it. Sure you could fix the holes in the bridge, the cracks in the crates on mid, and all the random bumps all over the map, but they're not gamebreaking problems. However, spire looking like Spiral Mountain is definitely a plus for me.
