My first attempt at the Source Engine. Plays well with 5+ players, however 8+ it starts to get phenomenal gameplay. Will release sooner or later. Havn't decided whether or not I want to submit for the Valve competition. Everything is done but small tweaks and maybe player start and weapon tweaks.

If you have any suggestions on where to place occluders, areaportals,
ect be my guest. I've tried it all to no good effect. The map simply is
too open.
Beta6 is released @ www.thevon.net There will probably not be another
release of the level unless valve doesn't choose it. Than I'll go
through and add prop_statics for a lot of stuff I couldn't do before.
The map is very good until you check performance with +showbudget or mat_wireframe. I think some computers today arent yet ready to handle so much nice architecture and props...
This is the only downpoint I see, but it might be important if we take a look at the tools VALVe has given us to control polygon visibility (occluders, area_portals, hint brushes...) Otherwise great map!
This is the kind of map I'd like to see winning the comp (after my own submission, of course :wink: )
huh?
