To find it is easy and fast. The most time is needed to make screenshots, mark the wrong things and write a post with comments.

Also ich war eigentlich immer da, aber irgendwie hast du deine eigenen Zeiten verpasst. Naja, bekommen wir schon noch hin :P

This beta is a lot better now. Nice improvements, btw. there're now 5 and 3 point flags ;)

The r_speeds are a lot better with the VIS blocker in the mid of the map now, but there're still these big useless corners I'd avoid.

I've noticed that there're still lot's of misaligned window bars. Looking at each window again might be the easiest way to fix all of them.


Inside (left) there's a door and no windows, outside (right) there're windows, but no door. How could this be possible?
The door is still just inside.


Red: Misaligned. Move this faces a little bit.
Green: Add two more clip brushes there.


Red: Jitspoe already mentioned this, I'll try to give you the solution to fix it. I guess you used the "aux" flag. Don't do this. For the right face use the "skip" flag, for the left face use the "mist" flag". I'm not sure at the moment, but this should fix the double wall and the entity visibility. Tell me if this doesn't work, then I'll have a look at this again and try to reproduce it.
EDIT: I see now that there is one more secret way at the autococker. It's nearly the same change to fix this wall, too.
Come ts and I'll explain this to you. When do you have time?


Green: I'd add one more clip brush from below here.
LOL, you forgot to delete the clip brush, you can still touch it :P


Red: Misaligned. Rotate this faces.
Argh, you fixed everything I've colored, but the wood face above the door still needs to be rotated.


Red: Misaligned. Rotate the face.
Green: Add a clip brush here.
Blue: All doors that are ajar have just a wood texture from behind. Use the door texture there, too. I'll post more screenshots of the other doors.


Red: Misaligned. Rotate the face.
Green: Add two clip brushes here.
Blue: An other door with a wood texture from behind, use the door texture there, too.
You've only done the clip brush here.


Red: Misaligned. Rotate the face.
Green: Add one more clip brush here.
Blue: One more door with a wood texture from behind, use the door texture there, too.
You've only done the clip brush here, too.


Red: It's not a big deal. However, I'd do it consistently. Extend the lower brush and shorten the left brush.
I'm not sure what you've done here, but somehow it looked better before.


Green: Misaligned. Move the texture like you did at the barrel on the other side.
One base is still misaligned.

Great work so far :D

Online @ [OTB] Beta!

I really like this map, and I agree taking out the 'Aux-Walls' improves it.

I like the fact that the jumps aren't completely obvious, but there are plenty.

There are some rather 'pointless' areas that should be removed, or made smaller (easier for recon purposes, making it more likely to get used in the match scene). I think you should have an easier way to grab 2nd without having to take so long, giving 'newbies' a chance. Infact, I think flag 2 needs to be in a new spot to really help remove camping OR have a path that comes behind 1 (2 = flag on ledge, 1 = flag beside stairs).

I never tried out this map till today and it's got plenty of potential to become a really good map, but it does need a little more gameplay testing-adjusting if you want it to get used regularly. I don't see this getting played on pubs at all either.

But whether you choose to spend more time and continue working on it, or release it as you see fit now, is your choice but it's still a very nice and unique map with the potential to be used often.

Please take a look at this beta, i hope you like it.

I like the addition, it feels abit long, but it gives you at the very least a 'newbie' path to 2, which is needed in every map. This map most definitely wont work in pubs -- which I'm sure you assumed with all the paths/rooms.

I still feel it can be over camped, even though they are many openings to both flags. But I also think adding another path to flag could make it a bit to much... I'll need to play-test it eventually to let you know more about that.

The new path added --- The door that takes you to 2nd, I think you should have it more 'open' so its not so easy to line somebody if they are in there. (Since you don't want to have to run all the way back down that hall to go main, so having a bigger door / or a hole in the wall gives (maybe a table/ramp) so you can use to jump a line when in that hallway.

Thinking about it some more -- The flag placement doesn't really need that much changing, it's a good placement since the 'camper' would have to be pretty much in the open if he's on 2, having a view of 1 and 2 -- which means he's an easy kill to get a point off. Then, you'd actually have to use teamwork to grab, unless he's got bad aim.

Screenshot -- That path is oversized and serve's no real purpose. It just will make recon harder. I suggest finding a way to make it smaller, and maybe make it look different then all the other rooms (every inside looking the same makes it hard to distinguish recon).

I'll try to get you more feedback later! Keep up the good work! It's a really nice map.
