Intro

By way of introduction, I am "Redclaw" and I have spent the last 5 years mapping for AVP2. I also served as a map reviewer and staff member for for PlanetAVP. Three years ago I jumped in the Half Life 2 and CounterStrike: Source arena feet first. It's been a total blast and I love the HL2 world. If you play AVP2 and would like to check out those maps please PM me.

Description:

A Lost Monastery high in the mountains. The sun bathes this ancient place with an afternoon orange light. While the monks are long gone, their deep droning chats can still be heard on the wind. Will you be the first to find all their hidden secrets? This map is a significant adaptation of Valve's beautiful Lostcoast SP map. Major portions of the map had to be reworked to make it DM playable.


Installation:

Unzip the files dm_lost_monastery_v1.bsp:
Steam\Steamapps\half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp\maps\

Notes:

This map has been heavily tested and optimized to be used with Hurricane Bots.

WARNING:

Changing the map name from "dm_lost_monastery_v1.bsp" to anything else will cause
all the visual effects (specularity) to stop working as the env_cubemaps have been compiled for this map filename only. Basically the map will look terrible if you change it's name.
