Hello everybody! This is my new map, cp_longrun! It's a A/D map in the style of the beloved (begrudgd) by most gorge! MAP IN ALPHA! Feedback is greatly appreciated, especially critique!

The map has 3 control points, A, B, and C.

Enjoy! :)

- Also, sorry for taking so long, life stuff (ie school gives me no time for map making!). I should really try to communicate more :p

Changelog below! Major update! Spawnrooms! Signs! Times! Streamlining!

WOW Thanks! Means a lot to me :) I'm also working on entry for the detail entry so it might take a little longer for a new version than it should.

EDIT: after reading feedback, I'll put more arrows and lower the start times and stuff. The func_spawnrooms ARE there, just in the very starts of the spawn rooms. Will get to it shortly!

I'm NOT DEAD! Yet...

Sorry about no updates, will have pics tomorrow. School has been HELL!- No time for anything else, mostly, but I have been able to edit the map, it flows much better now. Unfortunately, the laptop in which I have been working on this map has an error in which TF2 cannot work- therefore I could not have watched the demo. UNTIL NOW. I will watch it and edit it accordingly to what works better.

I'll be back!


PS. I found a map named "Longrun" here- even tho it's dead, I really want to change the name, so I'll concoct something up for the next release.

EDIT: I won't be changing the name.
I saw the demo. My face lit up like a lightbulb at the first offense- not much changes there, but I made the side area ( the one with the bridge) smaller.
After seeing demo, yeah, the map is preeetty big. Amazingly it works, but I'm going to continue trimming away the fat, add better cover (less props!) and such. Oh, and there are a LOT of arrows. Mhm. I'm also rethinking changes I did based on feedback.

Thanks SO MUCH for the feedback! I hope to see the next version tested on the next test/gameday! (to all your chagrin hehe.)

PS That weird door in mid opens for RED at A, closed at B, then opens for BLU when you cap B. Hope this helps- I should make things mroe clear tho, too. Will release a better version sometime next week, hopefully :) Goodluck!

PPS Will lower spawn times to 3 (BLU) and 6 (RED), then increasing by 2 seconds each cap.

Btw, put the pictures to the public folder in Dropbox so we can see them as well.

To my knowledge, you cannot put overlays/decals on moving surfaces.

Yeah, I know. I found the right props (the billboard arrows) I'll put them on the public one right away, thanks for telling me :)
