CTF_EXPORT: First original ctf map for HL2DM

YOU MUST PUT YOUR SERVER IN TEAMPLAY OR ELSE THE TRIGGERS WILL NOT WORK!

It is here. after 2 months of development and one final week of perfecting and tweaking, it is here. the scenario is a culmination of UT's bombing run and capture the flag. the map consists of two sides with 3 connecting hallways. it is great fun.

THE OBJECTIVE is to bring the colored combine balls (red for rebels, blue for combine) from your enemies flag room to your flag room by shooting, passing, and killing. touching your own flag will result in death.

the score is recorded in a scoreboard attached to the HUD. it is with you at all times. do not look for a giant scoreboard in the map because there is none. first to 10 wins. when a team wins, a message appears showing which team won, explosions, and the game is started again.

Special thanks to:

Object - host for the map, Flashdevil, hamst3r, fi3nd, [TK]Archwolf, Morph-Ninja, Blender, and many of the other beta testers who all gave input to this map.

(NOTE: the blue/red screen in the doorway/window of each flag room PULSES and fades in and out from opaque to nothing. IT IS NOT PERMANENT in the last screenshot.)

have fun!

yes, we did find a way to control team spawning.

insta: ill release an open source VMF later on and a tutorial to anyon who wants it.

wolf, i actually have a custom flag model and a friend of mine already modeled a flag stand. i can hand them out if you like.

and the lighting wasnt bad for me or any of the beta testers... maybe adjust your settings . and yeah, i kinda rushed the part RD... once i saw that 2fort remake i kinda took a big gulp and focused on the scenario a helluva lot more.

i was thinking about that . im gonna try for a jungley theme next time. sunset, skybox, and nice and happy fer ya RDeh .

thanks .

actually, for gameplay purposes, a _final will be released. no changes in actual visuals... just the gameplay tweaked to match the suggestions put out by those running it on their servers. ill be releasing it soon.

just wanted to release the final here if anyone is interested .

changes:

- boarded up window (for less half court shots)

- blocked off all possible areas where the flag might be

- made it so that you need to be close to the flag to actually get it

- made it so that picking up your teams flag will not kill you. you wont be able to pick it up

- added a sound/text message when you pick up/score/drop the flag

- FIXED THE LADDERS!!!!
