TROUBLESHOOTING:
Set in your q3config.cfg set

I haven't had any issues with that setting.

GREAT! Congrats on making such an amazing map!

The showcasing of the usage of the Kamikaze item in you video to clean small rooms is very interesting, it seems like a lot of fun ;)

Also the graffitis are a great addition (I can't remember they were there before?), and the balcony in the building is great too, coupled with grenades it's also interesting :p

Thanks. Your suggestions helped with the office building. The graffitis wasn't in the beta but are in BF3 (not those particular graffitis) I could of kept going making additions and tweaks here and there but I had to stop and the more I added, the more fps was being affected.

You could relase it as well on MapRaider, since you consider it to be final. There's an OpenArena section there.

I did. "(mapraider.com pending)" You guys get pre-release (pre-mapraider release) access, I guess. :)

wow, been having lots of fun with this map and the bots. I still get lost, but thats part of the fun. Too bad I don't see this on any servers. Seems like these big maps (like kellblack) aren't actually so popular   :-\

The Double Domination is intense, imo. I must admit I don't play the internet servers with OpenArena, maybe about time I start. I normally play OA on my local LAN with family.

After that large map, I am finishing COD Nuketown cover/parody. Just about finished that one. That's a real small map. That fun too, lots of blood splattering! :)
