oh.. and the "lights" texture is a textlight, behind it is a "off" texture non lit, in case you have to "killtarget" the light texture to get it work, itll have a texture behind it for looks.

Very good map but as Kasperg said the r_speeds are a bit high. Get rid of the skybox and use skybrushes instead. And use the null texture wherever possible. Still looks good even on an old engine. 5 stars.

yes it is sky boxed:(. i did spend some time using the null texture but not across the whole map. since i got some of the structure from hl2 some of the brushes are set to 0.25 instead of 1.00 prolly raising the pollygon count. ty kasperg..:)

Nice map, although detail comes at the expense of r_speeds as high as 2156 and the likes I noticed that you still havent used the null texture on unseen faces. I dont think those are the ones raising the polygon count, but they would save you lots of compile time if you use them. The map also seems to be skyboxed instead of skybrushed... am I right? skyboxes are eeevil Otherwise the map is very interesting, for example the way you reduce texture scale to get much better shadows (with a hit on r_speeds obviously )

after dling this map ithought to myself, and i pondered the meaning of life i still havent gotten anywhere with that but it looks like one of my early maps its a good start off point but i think that this map needs too be a little bigger and block vis a little bit more thats just my 2 cents good luck on making it better and i agree wit hteh others fps is kinda low Blocking vis a bit should fix that either way stock up on the tutorials and sooner or later ull pop out a map that everyone lieks sry for the spelling errors i cant read my screen anymore (been up for over 24 hrs now)

-Too small IMO
-a couple misaligned brushes, otherwise very clean
-Besides the towers, map is kinda plain IMO
Nice Job

There are many func_ladder tutorials if you google and on this site.
Neat Idea!
I deleted the other map that was part of this download and appropriately, just left the example map.

Can't believe I've been here so long.
