I created this map for all you snipers out there that want a map to test your skills on. It's a simple map with no objectives but it's a great map for LAN games or maybe even Clan testing of snipers.

It's a 2 player only map since I thought more would ruin the effect.

Sorry about the ads, can't afford a real host.

I playtested with some friends and we found that 1-1 was the best way to go. Total silence and then WHAM, you're dead. It has a really spooky feel to it. It's best with "fade to black" on, for obvious reasons.
I was playing last night and I must have been looking for my friend for 3 min when all of a sudden I hear breaking glass and the "ding" of my helmet.

Just have to pack it up and find a host.

looks good, a great map for 1 on 1 sniper death match :p

some "enemy at the gate" kinda stuff.

u need to re-align some textures, but no biggy.

Theres a new league with a 1v1 Sniper League you might look into presenting this to. It's brand new. I think www.wga-league.com. Cool idea, looks pretty good for it.

looks cool, align some textures and it'd be perfect. I need to cook up something like this for my own lan play

I'm new to mapping so the only way I know how to allign testures is manually using X and Y shift. Is there an easier way to do it?

We're doing ok, having some problems with members going AWOL but the core team is going strong.

just make the texture a scale of 1 and 1, and the shift of 0 for both x and y

Try using the "Align to TOP" or "LEFT" or "RIGHT" when using the texture manipulator tool thingy. Saves lots of time.
