[TF2] pl_hoodoo

    I've been hard at work since goldrush was released and a few months back I finished pl_hoodoo up to a _b1 release, now its gone through a further two versions and now sits at _b3.

    The map has three stages much like goldrush but each stage only has two capture points, unlike goldrush. Pretty early on I decided I wanted to have a different cart to the standard goldrush one, so I contacted a modeler I know and he made me a fantastic cart model. It looks like this -

    I've managed to fix a fair few issues from _b1 and _b2, continueing to improve detailing and balance so that hopefully it plays much better than previous version, here is a sample of what you can expect to see:

    Enjoy it!

    Nice work!

    I really appreciate the fog in those screenshots, gives the map a real nice feel. If i get time will definitely download and play!

    i just had the pleasure of playing this map online with 10 people its good stuff

    +layout is rock solid and despite the many routes quick and intuitive to learn

    +its long i love long payload maps it would be nice though if all the checkpoints were completely seam less without spawn count down inbetween.

    +it looks good i could not distinguish it form official maps i wished though that the colors where a bit more "saturated and brighter" that would be an easy fix with upping 2 values in ambient and sunlight

    - in the second stage the first ramp you push the cart up people don't fit between the cart and the wall on the left since i hide a lot behind the cart i found this really annoying.

    - also at the beginning of the second stage the red team can run into the room with the automatic gates D:

    i actually took screenshots of those 2 issues but i am too lazy to upload
