Hi Math, it's a nice map !

My server is already hosting it and the map is callvotable, I put it in the rotation map. :wink: This is a mirror. :cool:

I added a navmesh sidecar for bot navigation keeping the original pk3 untouched. :bsuit:

I've seen you compressed lightmaps in jpg, do you know you can use lossless webp for that purpose? It's the best choice for lightmaps (lossless, strong compression) since lightmaps can suffer a lot from compression artifacts. :smile:

Uh, I nearly forgot about UTCS. Screenshot looking good, need to acquire some time to test it. Making good use of the new texture packages it seems? :smile:

Yes of course, but if you change the layout you must remake them… You can use daemonmap to generate navmeshes from bsp.
