I noticed that the version information in the first post says that this map hasn't been updated for over a year, yet the file linked to by the Download button is ctf_haarp_test6.zip rather than a beta 2 download.

Why has this info not been updated?

Note: I only checked because we haven't had this on my server in a while and I was redownloading it... and some of my users already have beta 2.

test6 wasn't actually a release, because it was supposed to be a test between b2 and b3. But I lost interest and never made a b3, so test6 is actually the latest version.

I remember playing this map a while ago somewhere. It was fun but occasionally a little too large. Of course there were not many people playing at the time.

That picture scared me a little.

Is there a changelog?

It is good day!

Sadly, Valve still hasn't fixed the A/D CTF HUD bug where it freaks out for a few seconds when you cap (until a new flag respawns).

That's not really anything that can be fixed on the map-side, though.

Did run into this:

Could be a graphics-card glitch, I dunno.

Curious to how the new version plays. Seems to be a new path to try to help break some of the more common stale-mate points. Is that upper flank path for the attackers above 2-2 new? Can't remember. Still slightly worried about "the trench of doom" there...

I swear the tunnel on stage 2 seems shorter. And the annoying one-way doors seem to be gone.

There were some bad problems, I'm going to compile a new version real quick.

Among other things people pointed out, I forgot to pack the announcer sounds and put a visualizer behind cp 1-2 that prevents blue from reaching sentries. Oops.

So can you put my name in the skybox for me? (because this is the new nightfall)
