that is a beautiful level, just from looking at the screenshots. I'm kinda reminded of The Canal (which is a good thing). I'd like to playtest it but my computer for that kind of thing is down (quite a shame).
You can host a pk3 on a geocities site, but I know there is better ways (FYI, to get around the restriction of hosting only jpgs, gifs and so on add the extension .zip to you pk3 and you shouldn't have a problem -> map.pk3.zip).
If only I could write a sentence without using parenthecies (can't spell either)

Dude! U got some serious skillz.
The map is exelent. Good architecture, good texturing, good mood.
I could only fid one thing wrong with this map ( and its minor ):
The armoury contains 2 racks with SG:s & RL:s... these 2 weapons are not allowed on many servers as they have a tendency to bring out the n00b in people

( but on the other hand, if they dont want them to be used, the mod the server do disallow them, thus: not your problem ).
And if THAT is the biggest problem with your map, you dont have a lot of problems... right?
EXELENT work Random!
And how cool is the scale model of the V2 map?

He he he

Yeah man thats the whole premise of this map. In the early stages i called it "The Night Before V2" for obvious reasons i changed it to the town it was based on. I already had a few ask me though what is that thing doing down there but before i could answer it was always followed up with ahh screw it this $h!t is awesome...good work.
Needless to say i am more than happy with the responce and one person said they liked it so much they were gonna dedicate a 40 man server to it.............we will wait to see how that goes though lol.
Hope to see you all at the SealTeam6 server to give it a run with us.
THanks Again

PS Bjarne whats wrong with rockets, i enjoy sniping peeps as much as anyone and i think im pretty good at it but you cant tell me you never just sit back and enjoy watching people do back flips?!?!?!?! Ahh well i guess i will always be a n00b at heart

He he
My problem with the RL is that it is unbalanced ( No I dont give a rats ass about realism ). Basically it is way too good in close combat ( OK, not CLOSE but... ). The balance would be restored if the rockets had a really short delay before actually firing and the projectile would start slower and accelerate.
But I agree, beeing a MAJOR n00b can be wicked fun!

i liek your map man, but i wish would have made it easyer to get ont he room of the church, also i think with another guy i would be able to get under the map.
its hard to explain where, but its toward the mine feild on on of the ledges. great work though.
i did notice one of the buildings by the hotel, the one with the spire had soem missing textures.
