Hoth: Secret Mountains

Description
Ecusoccerdude makes his modding debut (or perhaps I misinterpreted "fist map" and he's already made dozens of other maps, for his elbows, knees, forehead, ears, etc.) with this redux on the icy planet Hoth. It's a pretty simple map; the four basic command posts in pretty much the exact same position as they are when you first munge a map.

Positives are that, for a first map, at least the courtesy and effort was made to change the ground textures - and not do something Yavin-based (although that accursed sky is still there). There is a decent amount of terrain variation, which means that despite the sparing use of props, it's not a huge flat plane of flatness.

However, objects, when they were placed, weren't placed very carefully. There are a number of floating objects, and the most egregious example of a poorly-placed object is the bunker, which doesn't have a backside. There are also a few missing textures on objects.

For a first map it's not a bad attempt, but it's still squarely in the "obviously first-map" category.
