Dm Coast - Alpha release

RELEASE - Dm Coast - ALPHA
Here it is at last, the ALPHA version of DM Coast!
I really have to point out that this is the un-optimised version, so everyone will have problems with frame rates. I get 35fps when looking over the whole map, which is terrible! The beta will hopefully be 60+ from the same position.
Known issues to be fixed for Beta release:
- NOT OPTIMISED - VERY BAD FRAME RATES UNLESS YOU HAVE A MONSTER PC!
- Cube map problems on one or two textures.
- Problems with Flashlight on a few brushes.
- Interior of Combine building not done.

Will play later, looks kinda cool. But please remove those random blocks. If you're not gonna make it an island in the middle of the sea, at least make it look like once there was some water.

Cool stuff anyway

I took a look and there is some nice stuff in there. Here are a few screenshots with some comments...

Players spawn with the SMG, so there is no need to place it in your map. I noticed it in a few places - just throw in an ammo clip instead.

Thats an awfully long linear path to take just to reach the AR2.

This didnt look so bad in game actually. I like the movement you have introduced but felt it could have used more.

You could probably increase the texture scale on the distant displacements, looks kinda repetitive.

This looked pretty awkward, really needs some shadows on the desert to look right I think.
Also, on the end of the broken bridge you had a rather odd collection of items, just didn't seem like a suitable reward for going all the way up and along the bridge.

Also adding sum trees or stranded ships could be kewl, for the shoreline. because it looks a bit empty now.

Thanks for bringing those up! (Plus the other fixes!) That's exactly the feedback I need, if you find anymore let me know. Good job!

You all know that this is nova prospekt right?
Btw, nice map. Look in the models for HL2 and take a look at the one that is this building.

The concept art that he is working from, is of the big combine structure at nova prospekt, the "train depot." You never see the place from this perspective but you are inside it when you meet alyx in entanglement.
