Canyon Pass

I reworked the whole map according to user feedback.

There is now a central bridge

The bridge leads to the center. This is where the teams meet, usually.

The bases are entrenched on the opposite sides of the canyon.

There are also battlements, that allow you to get to the second floor.

The second floor balcony allows players to either move from spawn, or jump down to defend the intelligence.

There are also two passageways on the first floor

This includes a second exit from spawn, as well as a ramp from the first to second floor.

An entrance to the underground tunnels is here

There are too many changes to count, and I was lazy, so no change log.

The BSP has cubemaps built, and has been packed!

First off, yes, I do release these rapidly. This is because I want to get out any broken gameplay, or silly errors before I detail it. I'd rather have a playable map as soon as possible then a pretty one that's broken (though, I do want it to be pretty).

I'd also like to thank the people who played my map in an imp yesterday, I really appreciate it. It was also fun to watch people play on something I made (and yes, it's orange, I know. I love it.)

Changelog (A2 -> A3)
-------------------------------------
* Started to texture respawn rooms.
* Added a giant piller to block off humongous sightlines.
* Added another cliff on ramps that go up to the base cliffs.
(To completely cut off said "pretty insane sightline"'s)
* Made the path to the base cliffs a ramp.
* Moved central spectator cameras closer (so they aren't being obscured by cliffs)
* Added a curve block on each teams far cliff.
* Optimized Skybox to conform to map shape (instead of just being a basket over the map)
* Lowered cliff curve infront of spawn doors (makes it less intimidating)
* Signiciantly brightened the team top level corridors.
* Lowered the entirety of middle to make it seem deeper in the canyon,
and to make it easier to fight there in gameplay.
* Fixed Uneven flag rooms.
* Added light to blue side long.
* Fixed improper textures in RED Base (even though I'm going to re-do it)
* Fixed dark spots in hallways (mostly)
* Smoothed out large side cliff so it doesn't look like it has a walkable edge
* Added another light to Red long.
* Increased brightness of the blue long light.
* Fixed clipping on pillar (you no longer can get stuck on it)
* Added signs everywhere (intel signs point to intel, signs to direct teams)
* Reduced medium health packs to small ones in sniper spots. (Ammo is still medium)
* Expanded base wall above spawn room (for future use!)
* Expanded flag room.
* Brightened Red Flagroom
* Disabled Lightmapping on light props.
