Sorry for the delay of the release... I have found some bugs that still needs to be fixed in beta 3. But it's getting closer!

However, here is some new screenshots

Finally good job on the team coloring
Sliding door necessary? I say remove it, just gets in the way.
I still think it is too cramped, its' going to have way too many choke points

Why everybody is having a fuzz with the team colours?! The mod when released, will have better if not best team coloured textures.

And now to the map:
Ampex! Chainge the rails into models! Seriously! I have said this too many times! You are killing me with the block rail thing!
*I didnt mean to be rude, but the model rails will look 2335 times better.*

if every map has the same openess, the same lack of choke points, they will all play similarly. i like how this map is inside a whole lot, the gameplay will change and will be tougher!

change is good!

The team colour textured sewer!

And.. I hopes that this area wont be too sg friendly as there are many places to build it on.. But i think it will be very fun!! I love when there are
thousands of sentry guns.. guarding the base, but that's just meh

The theme would suit CS: S, but the layout at the moment is a no go. With a reworked layout then yes, but not right now. Anyway, I think this is going to play good with TF style gameplay; there might not be much concs or special manoeuvres One can pull, but there will be some fun dming there

Cause there are lots of details and things in the way. I think it could play well in CS:S with some minor modifications. There are just too many things to get stuck on for FF imo. Rails, ladder, support for the ceiling etc... I don't think it's a good thing to have all those objects in a small cramped room like that for FF.

Would be nice to have a CS:S server for people on this forum... we could try your map in it lol.

Ok..

I think t his map is good for sniper class since there are many places to snipe from.. The worst class for scout i guess.

Thanks anyway good that you have this idea..

If I'd see a screenshot without knowing anything from this map I wouldnt even include CS:S inside why "What would it be for?" list.

Ok guys I have a problem with the damn map

First of all after the sdk update my models render strange in camera view (like they have been cutted).

Next, when I try to compile the compile times differens if you compare with the latest sdk update before you got it.

And third, the map is almost done and I know i have delayed it many times and all that but it's almost done but one thing wont let me release it here.

It's the sky problem! When I compile with the correct sky (sky texture is grimmnight) it wont show up ingame and instead of the sky above the map there is normal black hl2 void. I get hammer errors everytime i compile my map with the sky texture even if i leave the sky field on blank it doesn't help.

Well... what more do i need to say ?

Hm.. this sdk update have something to do with video drivers because i know that everyone who have ati cards with ati drivers hammer reacts on those problems I get.

We will have to wait for next update of the sdk. I'm really glad all about hammer editor but these new experiments with hammer and valve doing it shit i'm getting really annoyed about this.

Can't they fix the damn hammer someday?

sometimes I feels like.. I don't like it.. ugh.. yeah, wack.

EDIT:

No it's me, I was wrong. The sky works as you see.. I had grimmnight.tga's instead of other vmt's file formats in the skybox folder. I'm dumb.

Here you see the battlements, tuned up, fresh, pimped, new and ready

more screenies of the red base you never seen will show up later..

It's all about time you know..

Well, here.. something new for you

look
