The Swamp Theme is a collection of swamp-themed assets, including materials, models, particles, and more for mappers to use in their custom maps. It was assembled by a group of TF2Maps.net members and published here. The Swamp Theme has been featured on the TF2 Official Blog.
The current version of the Swamp Theme is a second revision, which brought many new assets to the pack, as well as a Swamp Theme Map Pack, featuring popular custom maps using the Swamp Theme assets, including Atrophy, Fever, Wildmire, and Blackwood.
There are forty models, over 30 materials and overlays, six skyboxes, one detail sprite, ten particles, and one new soundscape for mappers to implement in their maps.
