Description
Updated version of Snow Globe b1 to be compatible with DX11 to fix skybox rendering issues found in DX9. It's an unfortunate situation, either make the map look bad for DX9 users or for DX11 users. I'm hopeful DX11 is the future, so. Here's the DX11 version.

Other changes:

- Trees are made out of pure steel (No more deforestation :P)
- Added a few gift boxes around 2 houses that were harder to get on the roof.
- Added a decal to the outside of the snow globe.

The sky box is really neat, such a great upgrade with Alpine Faction. Fun map. Would have been more fun if you kept the trees exploding with rocket launcher, sell out :(

I loved this map in Snow'd Out, and I love it here too. Extraordinarily simple layout, nice visuals, and an awesome skybox. What's not to love?

Snow Globe promises - and delivers - exactly what a Christmas map should be. Great work!

⚠️ This review was written for an older revision of the file. The comments may not apply to this version. Reviewed as: Snow Globe
Nice map! Definitely captures the Christmas vibe. Pulls off the simple cartoony look well! Neat skybox! Kinda funny that the skybox is a literal box of things the snow globe is sitting in. One note for anyone using DX11, you won't see the sky because DX11 enables lighmaps for skyboxes where as DX9 just full brights the skyboxes. So the sky is currently too dark to see through the dark glass around the map in DX11, since there is no lighting in the skybox. Was fun to play at GN! Definitely going to be an xmas classic to play every year, now that it's free from its mod. :D
