This is my HAMMER learning experience map originally created by -MoHax- (banned from fpsb as far as i know and also one of the LARGE contributors in the CS:S texture map community) I started this map to learn the software features as well as a handful of friends sat down and thought what this map would be like if it were "finished" if you know what I mean.

So the beta testing began on my server and I started making advXX version numbers for everyone to try. 100's of people showed up with feedback and bugs that helped create this map over a weeks period and 109 compiles. Over all I myself spent a week with a little over 100 hours into the map. 20 of those were me trying to figure out the custom soundscape which everyone should enjoy and learn from. It has sortof a HALO 2 feel to it if you've ever seen the video of "CAPN SLAPAHO falls alseep".

Features:

custom soundscape



highly optimized/higher framerates



lots of brush fixes/texture fixes/ladder perfectioning



300+ beta testers



well over 1000 hours of testing amongst the players



still slightly ct sided



includes some very difficult moves while newer players can still play the old way



non-green radar's



same sky, but correct lighting leaving players more distinct and visible



standard texture map 1 blacklight :p



you decide how creative you can move throughtout the map

SPECIAL THANKS:

MoHax of course for putting all the pressure on the diamond, i just cut and polished it ;p



The 100's of testers sharing their ideas and dealing with the downloads (13gig of bandwidth in that week), about half said they'd wondered what it would have been like. I think i've done a good job. They also nicknamed it "The Cabana" :D



SUPER SPECIAL thanks to bigmach for making me register cuz he took the map,named it mach_city,said someone else made it, forgot half the files, and posted it on fpsb :)
