I found this map on a server last night, a German one I believe. This, btw is how I have found the very best maps I have in the rotation at the Gamers Diner. I call it fishing . Anywho, as I am not the author,(and I don't know who is actually) I decided to post this here instead of the maps forum, and my reason is,

I am beginning to scratch and sniff at Hammer for source, and I personally, think this map is jaw dropping in its scope and theme and performance. I just would like your guys opinions as mappers who have already released and or nearly released some very good (well excellent, really)maps for source.

link for the map is here. : http://gamersdiner.com/downloads/dm_minev18_4_05.zip

Here are some optimised screenies.

btw, don't let the fps reading decieve you, my Nvidia card has been having fits lately, and there are tines where all these readings are almost doubled.

I found some serious errors. I also noticed only two routes from "top" to "bottom" choke points that i feel are not conducive to quality HLDM fragging.

I would love to get with the author to make this map better though, cause i can see some very interesting ideas in it.

but seriously, i cannot see this playing very well. you just do not have the routes to support it

teleporters would fix the current configuration perfectly with a minimum of restructuring.

if you can locate the author, please pass on my comments.
