Darcy's Alpha 2 version.
- The orientation of the sun has changed.
- Lights are now more "realistic"
- Changed the Skybox texture.
- Stairs added to "train shortcuts" to facilitate navigation.
- Added light on them too.
- Moved the ammo pack and health kit away.
- Added rocks in the middle for more easy flanks
in the next version, I’ll cover Optimization

Notes:
- The fullbright was caused by me not using -ldr and -hdr, -both is a blodeh traitor.
- The layout has changed. Main changes are noticeable in the A3
- I'm still working on optimization. numportals were around ~ 1333, and now, about 800. (tophattwaffle was right, make a proper skybox!)
(I am planning to do the "hint and skip" technique in future versions)
OBS: These three weeks were so bad for me that I can't express it in words. i got covid and FFS, the first day i was fine, then the next day ... well, i couldn't eat, or just sleep. it feels really bad. Yes, the A3 version will be released and I did not abandon the project.

Darcy's Alpha 3 version.
NOTE: i've compiled with -ldr and -hdr, nothing special, but now you'll se the lights.
A lot has changed since version A2, after a lot of feedback on how much snipers could kill you on the other side of the map, I had to change the entire layout in the middle.
“update notes”:
- Improved Areaportals and Placed Occluders
- Changed the location of Ammopacks and Healthkits
- Now you can see the actual wood plank texture on the trains
OBS: The map isn't fully optimized yet
Thanks for BRUXÃO (a friend of mine, that helped a lot)

This will probally be the last entry on Darcy, this map will no longer receive updates.
Main reasons being:
Main reasons being:
- I've lost the vmf.
- Oversized map. I don't think a koth map should have the same size as a 5cp map.
- Too hard optimizing open areas.
- Way too much planning on paper, no actual testing.
- Family problems basic killed this project.
