the 3dskybox idea was to make it look better cause it looks weird stopping the way it does at the moment

I know, but I'll try to show you that 3dskybox could look very weird
(or unrealistic) also because fog settings and draw distance used in
this map. Related to this, I changed fog color a bit and now looks
better.

About water, I think it's because sun reflection, I'll try with another kind water but may be will happen the same.

Hmmm I havnt noticed any lag on this map on my machine I was at 60+ fps throughout the whole level.

without bots that's my performance too, try to add cl_detaildist 4000 if you want better visuals.

Oh and another thing I forgot to say was, that (almost certainly
because of my graphics card) the little pont looked like a big white
blob lol and not water until I got up close to it :smile:

So in nrmal play it looked weird lol

Thx for your repor<span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span>t 6th monkey :biggrin:

The problem related to hostages going out the house is resolved, there
wasn't a proper connection in the navigation mesh. And I think they
could be splited in 2 groups, one in first floor and other in second,
just to make it easy for CTs.

FPSs are good enough playing without bots, but with them... I think
bots waste more resources with this kind of terrain, the navigation
mesh is 10MB size (very huge and complex). If somebody wants to play
with bots I say sorry, put a number your CPU can manage.

About the 3dskybox, it will not add better FPSs :wink: , and there is a
problem related to fog distance, it felt very strange when I tried to
add. Need to make more experiments.

Hey for all you guys who can't download right click the link and save target as :biggrin:

Anyhow I tried the map with 9 bots and me..... and I really gotta say the fps was bad in some areas where combat happens often... oh also I found it incredibly unlikely people will be able to rescue the hostages since they are unable to navigate outside the room in the house to easily... luckily I was playing against bots so managed to get a victory out of it cause I knew where they'd all be camping lol :smile:

Anyhow I can tell it would be pretty cool if neatened up a little bit more, u also need to add a skybox lol and some how sort the terrible fps...

I haven't any problem downloading it, don't know what problem could be.
Probably it's related to hot linking and referrals, those protections
don't work when a referral blocking is on (like some firewalls has)

Huh, Tripod just continue to get more annoying by blocking the link for several seconds

anybody tried?

The map is not finished, but I think I can do some open betatest. Time to be a cow or what you want :biggrin: :

there is a hotlink protection, if gives some kind of error retry and download it.

this is only for betatesting purposes, not redistribute or I'll have to kill you

I want to polish it, and probably add some cover where needed, but
remenber: there are 3 big zones with different tactics and playing
style. It can be played with pistols also (not the s**ty terrorist
one). Enjoy and tell me all you think about it.

Some errors: a volume in soundscape fails (too high), hostages are exctremely assholes, need to edit the nav to avoid it.

A cow you say... :wink:
Truly excellent now make it better using the replies above.
Oh and Cassius maybe you will like my old terrain maps :wink:
