The crazies have broken out of their "terrorist cells" at the courthouse, and they're planning to bomb the place to facilitate their escape. The SWAT team, of course, has just arrived to stop them.

The terrorists can either plant the bomb at the base of the statue above the courtroom or inside the main security control room just below the prison. The statue is closer, but it's a very open area, with enemies coming from all directions. The control room is harder to get to, but it's more easily defended once the bomb is planted.

There are 40 spawn points. There are multiple ways to get to either bomb site, including from the outside courtyard and from the basement (to bomb site B). Sniper points are everywhere, so watch your head.

There is an alternate way for the terrorists to get to bomb site B. After existing the prison spawn point, the terrorists can turn right into the third-floor balcony area instead of running down the corridor to bomb site A.

In the balcony, use the crates to jump onto the fence. You can then jump onto a lamp fixture extending out from the side of the building. From the light fixture, you can then jump onto the perimeter wall, and then jump down to ground level without suffering damage.

This route is trickier, but also sneakier. The basement also provides a detour to the bomb site. You can surprise the CT by showing up at bomb site B largely undetected.

Distance from spawn point to bomb site:
CT to A: 9 sec
T to A: 11 sec

CT to B: 16 sec
T to B: 22 sec

its set in a snow village much like dod_kalt, ony totaly different feeling. wiht 5 control points a rivier and axis and allied spawnpoitns are on different places. still it got the dod_kalt look with a central road leading throw the map wich the control points are on.

Unfortunately the i suffered from a hd crash and havent been able to retrieve the source. Therefore this map is canceld...

Thx to all people that contributed with their comments and suggestions. Hope you like it.

CS_Harvest tries to represent a natural huge outdoor place without loosing CS classical gameplay. A lot of custom materials, textures and models are included. There is linux data also, but it takes a lot of space (about half of bsp).

A custom navigation file for bots (made from scratch) takes adventage of cs_harvest complex terrain.

A new surf map, with three runs to choose from at the spawn, which both teams spawn at. Rather then having a divider, I opted to simply make everyone start with no weapons, including knives. This may be a turn down to some people, but it encourages people to surf better by not spawn killing or being spawn killed.

Flamers, please note that surf maps are not supposed to be beautiful. They are for the fun of playing them. I am an expierenced mapper, the only reason that I don't pay the attention to detail that I used to is because the slow productivity drove me away from mapping, which I loved to do.

NOTE: DOWNLOAD LINK HAS BEEN UPDATED TO A FIX, REPAIRING A SKYBOX ISSUE.

A HL2DM map set in a forest in a fjord. With ancient ruins and a cave system. Now named DM_Tempelwald, used to be DM_Forest.

We, some student's of Computer Science of the University of the Balearic Islands, wanted to blast our faculty, so we'll go one on building it

Well, I finally worked out all the bugs in this one and it came out great! The map has been done for some time now but I was stuck on some little things. I also had to restore my system which also took some time out of working on it. Anyway, I worked hard on this one and I payed a lot of attention to gameplay. I think it's pretty solid. If you liked Opposing Force you'll absolutely love this (SVEN Co-op) map! The map also contains custom models and textures. Enjoy!

this map is for the tmp lover at heart. It lost of close quarter combats zones and objects that you can use to your benifit to hide behind,around, through, and whatever else you can think of.

A map with two breakable and sinkable wooden galleons in a close range cannon fight.

The map is ready for release, but you might have a problem finding it due to it's use of Condition Zero material. If you google reo1.exe, you might be able to find it.

STORY

In the mountains of northern Afghanistan, is a small village of stone houses nestled up against the base of a mountain. It's early spring, and the snows that cover the mountains have started melting. The stream is still covered in a layer of ice, and just after dawn on this march morning, the air is cold and foggy. The sheep huddle together on the still barren fields, and the soft thunder of the waterfall can be heard from a distance. The village appears abandoned, and the area is quiet. But Terrorists live there, where they grow poppies, and make heroin for sale in the west, and they keep the village for use as a hideout and as a factory for their profits. Unfortunately, a spy has found the village, but he was caught, and is being held hostage in the center of the village. Now, Blackhawk helicopters have landed on the southern edge of town. The Terrorists know that a rescue mission has been launched.

STRATS

The approach routes are very carefully timed so that rushes result in conflicts in specific locations. And while the layout is deceptively simple, the number of strategies you can use is almost unlimited. In particular, how you split your teams will greatly affect the game play.

The map's layout is a cyclone model with both teams spaced equidistant from the hostages, and rushing to a center arena. The village is constructed so that the terrorists come in either straight or to the high side, and the CT's either straight and to the low side. Both can flank the other team within the village, or by the ground route around the village. You can get in and out of the buildings, and easily onto the roofs, and there are at least three different ways into the village center for each team. This layout creates the effect of the teams coming out of the woodwork in a central arena, if they both sprint to the center. The teams can also try to flank the low route outside the village, and the timing is set so that smokes, flashes, and snipers all play in that tactic.

Most of the routes that are interesting require you to break down a door or window, and this includes getting the hostages. The sound gives away your location.

The web site has a full list of the different strats that I used to plan the game play.

EASTER EGGS

• There are two easter eggs on the map. One about myth and heroism where you can get a grenade, the other is an AK with one clip.

INSTALLATION

• Copy the BSP file into you cstrike/maps directory

• Start CS:S, select Create Server, and from the dropdown, select "cs_knifeedge_beta1a"

• I recommend that you use seven bots (your processor will get eaten with more of them).

FPS

• I'm getting 140+FPS near the edges of the map, 100FPS in the center, 90 in the good areas, and 70FPS in the slowest areas.

OTHER MAPS BY THE AUTHOR

de_ignorance - set in Iraq, and full of political commentary, it's a great map for strats and especially for playing against bots.

THANKS

I want to thank the people on the SteamPowered and VERC forums who made this map possible.

In particular: Nudel, Wolf, Zombie@Computer and of course, WiseMX.

This map is a remake of the cod mission where the Pegasus Bridge in Normandy, France. The bridge is needed to be taken by the Allies to stop a counterattack expected by the Wehrmacht. The Allied task is to stop the Wehrmacht from holding both sides of the Cannal de Caen.

The allies land by glider to attack the German garrison. All this is +6 hours before D day so the allied landing is vital to the troops on the beach.
