Map Description

I made a few maps for HLDM so wanted to have a crack at the HL2DM. Real life caught up though so I'm putting it out without adding as much to it as I may have. It should make for good gameplay though with a reasonable number of players - I'd suggest 5 min.

It's quite different to most maps out there - I wanted to combine a 'normal' scenery based map with what I liked about 'killbox' type maps- the result is six large pyramids with one big outdoor space and a network of rooms of all sizes within the structures. There is little in the way of decoration and things to play with, as the killbox, but also a carefully thought-out layout with plenty of connectivity.

If anyone fancies having a go at adding a bit more detail or some toys to make a more polished level just send an email and I'll send you the .vmf - I'd love to see it looking really finished, meanwhile I think it should make for a good deathmatch so I hope you like it

It worked for me...

Anyhow, This map suffers from some bad texturing (i.e. too much of the same stuff)

I got lost in the map a bit. I thought that there were only 4 pyramids, but in reality there are 6 (only four on the outside, and I realize that you specified that, but I didn't remember), I had to noclip out to figure that out ;)

I had no idea what the buttons did, unless I noclipped to where the noises were coming from. I don't get the scene though. Are these actually supposed to be ruins of old pyramids?

Either way, I suppose this map was built okay-ish, but it suffers from detail and its immense size, it's HUGE and easy to get lost in...

I've tried again and it still doesn't work. Maybe find one of these free 1-file-hosts and upload it there. They mostly have several limits but should work a little better.
