A quick and dirty screenshot of the main area. Don't take this for too much value. Click the link to get a better detail image. Of course, the picture doesn't reveal all the details of motion... to be honest I'm far less impressed with the screenie than the ingame environment.
Still a lot of things broken in the map... but also a lot of this fixed. In this image, the murky water and sun light direction/intensity is shown. There's a number of minor details seen that I won't get into at this moment. Around the rest of the map there's a lot of changes that are bringing out the environment and more importantly the particularity unsettling atmosphere.
I'm working my way around the map, clearing out the gameplay affecting issues, broken brushes/textures/shaders/patches/etc etc etc. Only important details are being focused on. No playable alpha release yet. Stay tuned!

Wily, do you know why i might not be able to access your site? Every way i try to get there comes up with a broken link error. I can view caches, just not the live page, and pic. Tried both crome and IE.
Had the same problem for ages last year, only worked once or twice.

I really dig the layout and looks.
But...can we swim in it? And are there any jumpers? ;) (sarcasm & inside-Um3 joke)

It's probably my firewall dropping you. I have massive subnet discards on most non-North America ip space. PM me your ip and I'll see what I can do.
Yea tinker, swimming is a key gameplay component of the map.

Yep. I believe we tested this in a pre-alpha release a while ago. I made some of the crates bombable so the explode in a chain reaction. Fun!

What's better than a screenshot? How about a first-hand look!

Feel free to poke around, check it out. Don't worry about reporting bugs/broken stuff/etc. Just enjoy the walkthrough. :)

Scrim server has it up, however it's password protected at the moment. Hit up myself or another FSK on TS2 for the password.

Are you making this map for 4.2 as well?

Not adding any 4.2 extensions, no. This map would look freaking awesome using them though.

Love the map wily, Downloaded it yesterday morning to have a look, ended up playing on UM3 tonight, was pretty awesome, very confusing finding routes to and from flag, hilarious when you spawned next to enemy flag, take that impenetrable defenses.
the darkness takes some getting used to, but once your eyes adjust and you can see the little edges, it becomes quite a cool feature, especially if all others are running around blind :)
also enjoyed stalking opponents from above the map, shooting onto the red tunnel from the flag from above, scared the heck out of a couple players till i told them where i was.
Cant wait to play the final version, could be up near superman in term of 3-dimensional play with all the winding tunnels and corridors, and all the open passages over the canals mean you cant feel safe anywhere.
I'm sure it will take most people a long time to learn the map and be able to navigate all around it without getting lost.

Damager - thanks for the detailed feedback! I'm interested in people's experiences with the differing lit areas, so this is great info.
Any more input is welcome! So far what I've seen and heard tells me this map is headed in the right direction.
