Map echo for HL

Echo - Made for the Gametribe HLDM mapping competition ==================================================================================================== Date : 30th April 2002 Title : Echo Filename : echo.bsp Author : ReNo [Duncan Blair] Email Address : reno@valvepit.com ICQ# : 28651662 Home Page : http://evolution.valvepit.com Map Description : This is a small, indoors industrial/urban level that i knocked together in a few days just so that I would have something to enter into the Gametribe DM mapping competition. I originally planned to use my project Forsaken, but it was too mammoth an undertaking to get done in time for the deadline, so I started this new level instead. I drew a lot of inspiration from some UT maps which will be quite obvious to people who know that game, and also from other HL maps such as "Lambda Bunker", and Andrew Weldon's "Repair Bay 4". Strangely, this is a map by me with....acceptable r_speeds! What ever is the world coming to :) Well truth be told, this is my only indoors level, and so the lack of rocks has meant I have been able to keep them low! They peak at 850, which is higher than I had aimed for, but its only in a small area and there is little I could do with the current layout to reduce them. The underground section of the map holds some powerful weapons and ammo, but the ammo and items are housed in the upper regions. I intended for this to add a tactical element to small team games and *fingers crossed* [i had no time to test it out] I've pulled it off.
