Release Date: 05.04.2017


Change log:

Any feedback?

Fixes:

- Tell me if you spot others

Fixes:

- Proper counter functionality for community servers
- Fixed all packing issues (hopefully!)

Bridge Bug Update!

A very known issue is the bridge getting stuck, or drawbridges coming down before bridges have extended fully. Void however managed to get stuck last play test and solved the unknown cause of the issue.

Attempted Fixes:
- Removed stuck spots on bridge
- Hopefully fixed bridge door prop cube-map issue
- Can no longer shoot through metal sheets in mid

Terribly sorry for that folks!

To proof that I'm still amateur as they get, I only compiled Beta 2 with HDR and those with HDR disabled experienced Arena Volcano in all it's full-bright glory. While I'm sure that was exciting, here's the patched version that should work for everyone (and all the bugs in regards to packing issues).

Small Fixes:
- Lava insta-kills once risen
- All stairs are block-bullets (woops)
- Handrails are now non-solid in lobby area as requested by Zahndar
- Removed cool bridge door prop while it gets updated...
- No height clip restrictions when on the bridge

Bridge prop by Asd417 as well.

Fixes:
- Restricted build-able areas on the bridge
- Improved lighting
- Added custom prop doors to the bridge
- Added invisible water under lava
- Clipped bridge properly
- Removed ugly props from mid

Known complaints:
- The lava texture...when I learn more about texturing
- Projectiles glide across the bridge (not sure I can fix this)
- Engineers OP (are they? I can remove ammo from the lobby area...)
- It's arena mode.

Screenshots!

Hope this beta doesn't disappoint. The map will under go further detailing in the future, but for now - let the play testing begin!

In collaboration with Asd417, Arena Volcano has been pushed into beta!

This was actually completed before Christmas, but I was hoping Valve would fix Arena after the Smissmas Update. Regardless, here comes beta testing!

Fixes:
- Bridges are off-limits before the lava rises
- No more safe spots from lava out of bounds
- Various clipping
- Tweaked round timer for when lava rises
- A giant make over!

This is just a re-upload of A5 but with a properly packed lava texture...FINALLY!!!

Sorry for the inconvenience...

Release Date - 12.09.16

Updates/Fixes:
- Widened map by a total of 128 units
- Packed lava texture (let me know if it still doesn't appear though!)
- Variance of height and cover on ground floor
- Miscellaneous changes such as stairs and door frames
- Clipped several safe spots as found from A4 testing

I hope everyone enjoys this build!
