ttt_tr5_rome

ttt_tr5_rome is my (first of potentially many?) homage to the classic Tomb Raider series, and in this case the fifth installment in the series: Tomb Raider Chronicles. I have always found simplistic graphics and low poly counts to have a really special charm, and love attempting to recapture that time-period in creations for more modern engines with some artistic liberties and new ideas. While this is not an absolute 100% recreation of the first level in TR:C, it is a incredibly faithful remake utilizing the same textures and models. Some variances in scale exist due to the different mechanics between Tomb Raider and Source games.

This map may receive updates in the future pending player feedback and whether or not I have time to do so. There's certainly a few ideas I'm planning on adding in future versions, and I have quite a few ideas for adding in innocent and traitor objectives to make the map more interactable. As of now, only one button exists to raise a platform to access an area.

I chose to forego a lot of the switches and buttons found in the original game's level as sealing off areas of the map would reduce the quality of gameplay for TTT. Likewise I purposefully excluded some of the more linear areas of the level which served only for access to items and switches and dead-ends are almost always not advisable when designing a TTT map. With this in mind, I am actively brainstorming and accepting new ideas for increased interactivity in the map.

This map features the following:

- Fully armed for up to 32 players
- Entirely filled with custom materials and models
- Extremely optimized due to the low-res blocky nature of the original level
- Nostalgia for those who grew up playing fans of Tomb Raider and of this level in particular
