INTRODUCTION

Show Content
"Refresh:" is a series aimed at making maps more suitable for 6v6 and other gamemodes. We took the opportunity to use our experience to fix the issues with map geometry as well as minor aesthetic and performance improvements. We humbly invite you to try out these changes and offer your feedback, so that together we are able to increase the quality of the competitive map pool.

SUMMARY

Show Content
In this edit of Metalworks we have aspired to keep things as close to vanilla as possible with hundreds of small edits to clipping and prop placement. Our main target was to correct a lot of the loose decoration around the map commonly used as obstacles or cover by adding block bullet brushes to the afformention stacks or replacing them with brush made structures. Finally the geometry of the last point has been improved to match the visuals, in original Metalworks players may struggle with combat around the paint as props are used to build up rickity ramps, in Refresh we have adjusted this to be a brush ramp allowing fights to be much more clean.

CHANGES

Show Content
  • Corrected clipping.
  • Better splash handling.
  • Closing off of a LOT of holes.
  • Reworked decorative props and brushwork to be more in line with the competitive format.
  • Reworked the brushes around the last control point, similar to the edits done on Refresh: Process.
  • Compiled with bspreveal.
A full compilation of patchnotes from F1 can be found here

i feel like someone rly needs to convince valve to just update the base maps to reflect changes like process f9 and such, pretty silly that we have to download custom maps for everything when it's such minor changes

The back left corner of the second forward spawn doesnt let you change class. The same problem exists on stock metalworks.

While that should be fixed, having the death on class switch enabled is a very bad move.

Med got stuck in the floor (on f2) at around 12:45 in the demo apparently according to chat, unsure if this was fixed in f3 or if it's even a map problem at all but worth pointing out.
