thanks for your patience

And if ya need helpers to test, I'll certainly offer my services,

Hope ya had a great xmas an a happy new year, keep up the great work!

ok guys, here are the last impressions of the map. I think it can be tested soon, maybe at the beginning of february. anybody who wants to join the testing-phase can send me a massage including the steam-name. and then we will see.   

and here we go:

Exceptional work!  Specially love the hover board bit, nice BTTF ref,

Some of these pictures reminds me of some crazy Nipper maps on CS 1.6 (Blahhh, Whaaa etc.)
Looks really good!

This looks so awesome. Sign me up for testing

[terps4life90]

I would love to test it as well, would that be ok if I did?

yeah, that would be ok. but at the moment there are some technical issues which slow down the final progress of the map and that´s what really annoys me.

I'm sure we would all be glad to help if you described the issue in detail.

[Ruone Delacroix]

From the pictures, the map looks amazing! I hope you get those issues kinked out because I would love to play it very soon.

I sent you a PM for testing this beast. Not sure if you got it or not, but I am sure there will be a handful of us to help you out. Look forward to seeing it when you get your first version out.

Unless you wish to figure the problem out by yourself, silly Cy.

I fixed some of the technical problems the last days, but there are quite a few things which confuse me.

1. I always have to write down the command "buildcubemap" in-game, so that the cubemaps will work correctly after restarting the map, right?. but I don´t know what has to be done at the end of the map-progress, so that the cubemaps can be seen forever in the future download

2. kraid told me to pack my own textures via pakrat in the final bsp. should I pack the soundscpae and the music-file in there, too?

3. some confusion about putting the ctk- and the living daylights-tokens into the map. nothing worked fine yet.

[killermonkey]

1. Just do buildcubemaps and exit the game. The data is stored inside the BSP, so if you recompile the map it will erase that data, which is why you have to rebuild on every map compile (save Entities Only Compile)

2. Yes, and don't forget to make a 'scripts/music/level_music_[mapname].txt'

3. Use ge_tokenspawn entities for all tokens. The gameplay will find them and place the appropriate tokens there (depending on settings). also place ge_tokenspawn_mi6/janus for team based gameplay in/near the respective team spawn locations.
