dm_villa_b3

This is currently the third beta version of the map, and I've uploaded it for playtesting and constructive criticism and feedback. This is a map best suited for anywhere from 2 to 10 players, spanning three levels: basement cavern, villa main floor, and the rooftop. To install, simply move the "half-life 2 deathmatch" folder into your ...Steam\steamapps\(username) directory. I'd like to give a big thanks to the communities at interlopers.net, fpsbanana, and hl2dmu for putting so much time and effort into helping me refine this map. This is not a finished product yet, but with all of your terrific help it's getting pretty damned close! I wanted to credit Bosh and Valar for coming up with the IOs for the health and armor charger lights, they look pretty cool. Version .3 Changelog: *Tripled the size of the existing backyard area, added new building to the main complex for looks. *Added new cave room, and a new entrance to the caves from the main courtyard to improve flow. *It is now possible to enter the courtyard hallway through a hole in the wall, to allow players greater freedom of movement. *Increased the size of the villa living room to ease player movement. *Fixed issues with small props getting in the way of players trying to pick up larger physics objects. *Made small touches to layout to enhance speed of movement and ease of movement. *Raised the skybox, now the grenades shouldn't magically bounce off of the sky. *Added lighting to darker areas of the map. *Changed weapon layout throughout the map; most importantly, I removed all but *one* of the SLAMs! *Made various cosmetic changes to improve visual quality. *Added clipping in many areas, since there were quite a few problems with players getting snagged on the walls. *Optimized map for fps' sake: compiled in LDR with higher lightmaps than the last version. Visleafs have been optimized as well for performance. *Overall map size is now ONE SIXTH what it used to be. I don't know how I pulled that one off honestly...
