Mapping isnt something you can just do over night, it takes alot of hard work how ever the SDK does make things alot easier.

Try that for starters....will show you basic CP creation etc.

Hope that helps

You need map designs? As in layouts?

Why would you need several "skilled SDK mappers" for that task?

I can get you a payload map design since I'm too lazy to map myself. It's 2 part, 1 with the huge train and 1 with the normal payload.

Took me about 1 day to create a simple playable room, with a door. So my mapskillzz suck, however the only piece of advice I will give you here is, don't just start making your map. First draw a map on a piece of paper, so you have a clue about the outline.

2cents;

For design, nothing beats looking at valve's maps, the distances between spawn/capture point/checkpoint is insanely well balanced.
Another thing to keep in mind is the amount of entrances/exits each area has.
And further down the line an additional tweaksetting is where you place your ammo & health kits, might be something to think about allready.
And like previously mentioned, nothing beats working something out on paper first.
And finally keep checking it with different classes, something that feels good with a scout (distancewise) might be horrid with a heavy.

example top view of gravelpit with objectives and spawn rooms highlighted.
