Ummm, the zip is actually 4.6Mb... Apart from that this looks really good. Lot's of detail and thought. The map flows, and looks good at the same time. Great stuff.

Most textures are done in PhS or PSP , then 256coloured in IrfanView, then Wally'ed into a wad, and if you're pareanoid, -wadincluded so that it's hard to retreave them from the bsp
lol, how were you meant to get up there? I changed gravity! Mwahahaa I AM OMNIPOTENT. Or high or drunk or summat. Oh well, lol. The snowflakes were nice little coarse, though.

crates? remember my comment about the awp towers and how it should have crates everywhere? that was sarcasm. crates just show ppl that ur very new to playing cs, or just having a map-designer's "block". try using other things that would be found in, say, a two story apartment. Like, a bed, kitchen counter, or even a refridgerator. if you want to be really creative, make the doors to cabinents, closets, or the refridgerator toggle with a use key so that ppl can crawl inside.
another thing to start trying is atmosphere. besides making a leaky, dirty, falling-apart dry wall ceiling (and maybe even a small puddle with dripping sounds near it) instead of bricks, you can use things that will never be used just to add to a feeling of reality. try putting a door for the "entrance" of the building, that doesn't really do anything but look good. maybe a wooden one with a rounded top. put windows on one side of the building with glass, and outside of there put a flipped copy of the building's side to show that you're in a neighborhood. if you want to get really into it, put a street and sidewalks with a small stairway in front of each door.
maybe you can really expand this map. put an emergency fire exit in a side window that goes into an alley with a dumpster. make six copies of this building (if it's small enough. i'll find out for myself soon.) and put three on each side of the street. put doorbells on them. put a few ct's in one and t's in the other. maybe make a hostage rescue map.
If you need any help with these things feel free to email me.

i will as soon as i get winzip. a piece of advice for screenies, in theconsole type "hud_draw 0" i believe, to take off your hud, then when you die go to free camera and shoot pictures like that. "hud_draw 1" will turn ur hud back on, and "crosshair 0" and "crosshair 1" will trun the x-nairs off and on.

If anyone downloads this map, you will notice there is a folder labeled big_city other than the bsp. Put that folder in your Half Life/valve/sounds folder

Hmm... i've played this one out on the net i think. I thought the transparent crates were just my wallhack! No, just kidding.
I'm gonna make a deagle map (it will probably be called deagle137) that will consist of five crates and i small catwalk. It's official name will be "IHaveNoTaste" or "ImALameUnimaginativeLoserWithNoLife".
It's very detailed, and has great atmosphere, but I'm not much of a fan of maps where you do nothing. Maybe if you hadn't allowed player control, it would've been better. Still, 3 stars.
Good Work I like this map, it have good feeling. But I want to play little to, not only go a round and look on a nice building, a herd of Orcher rush in to a good battle have be nice.

Thanks Tlax! The Terminator's "I'll be back!" is in there along with Dr. Evil, Austin Powers, James Bond, Dirty Harry and Golom (from Lord of the Rings), just to name just a few. They say different stuff every time you play the map, so play through it more than once to hear everything. I'm glad to hear people are enjoying this. It was fun to make!
Hmm, this screenshot roxx!! I have to try out this map. But I think the r_speeds are very low because of the detailed brushwork. : Though its a worth a look!

Heh heh, I planned it that way. At the beginning of the level it says to 'Escort' barney and the scientist to the end. Websters dictionary defines the word 'Escort' as "Keeping Barney with you at all times."
Apart from that this looks really good. Lot's of detail and thought. The map flows, and looks good at the same time.
Great stuff.
I really like the lighting here BTW
Just PLAY FOR FUN !!!
I see you managed to get the models to work. Can't say I have ever been able to get a snowman to follow me before.
Well Done.

Funny map, amusing to listen on all the comments from Barney and the scientist. But I missing the classic reply from the Terminator...
