Bit confused here.. your fourth alpha is 41 MB, i took a look in the bsp and it seems you only have a dozen cubemaps or so, two models with no textures and a skybox texture..
So how the heck is it so large
lightmap scale 1 on all faces???
skybox is 5mb, cubemaps are 2mb, entities are 240k, it seems lumps 8 and 53 take up most of your space (10mb each), which are *Cracks open the VDC*
...... (drumroll please)....... Lighting and Lighting HDR
Lump 40 is close after at a little under 8mb which is the pakfile
and lump 4 is the last one to take up more than 2 mb (3) which is vis information.
Now lets open a similar map for comparison, say, plr_cornfield_a6 wich uses a custom sky and is probably at a similar level of visual detail.
Cornfield is totally 36 MB
1.5mb for a sound
2mb for my custom dev textures... (he didn't delete them from his PC so pakrat automatically paks them in... doh!)
Only one cubemap.
About 2 mb for some other textures for his cart
4mb for my skybox
His biggest lump is 40, at 13mb (pakfile)
8 and 53 each at 6.7 (lighting + HDR)
His next biggest is 29 which is some physics ino, his vis (4 ) is at .5mb
Since you probably dont know what lump 40 is, the pakfile (well i didn't) it's basicly all the content packed in with pakrat.
Just some food for thought.

Yep. Both carts got stuck at the crossover for stage 2.

Doubt you want me up there.
The gray block in spawn confuses people.

Indeed, we played through both stages just fine the first time, but when we got to stage 2 on the second play through, they both got stuck at the same positions as each other (relative to their place on the track).
In terms of game-play, I did manage to get alot out of the first play through, I have previously played stage 1 of scoville (first map I tested on the TF2M servers) and it proved to be very fun, besides clipping issues, the game play on this stage was near flawless, a perfect set of flanks for both teams, spawns were reasonable distances from the final points, and the overall layout of the stage was just fun and playable for every class I saw.
Stage 2 proved no different today when I tested it, the fans in the pit in the centre of the stage were particularly fun to airblast people in to (and to jump in to of course), it seemed alot more open than the first stage, but regardless, it was a solid layout with great game play.
I hope Stage 3 proves as solid and as flawless as the first 2 stages have been so far!
Keep it up!

Volume of people pushing the cart causes it to roll an extra point? (this was an issue in hoodoo, it rolled into an adjacent path_track and was given new inputs sometimes because it doesn't stop instantly)
Test with a bazillion bots and bot_mimic_1
4, and they don't lock. There's going to be a huge fusion particle in the center of it all. Players can get sucked into it and be burned to smitheroons if they get too close to it.
I still have no clue how to fix the crossover bug. Stage 1's was fixed for A4, but Stage 2... I don't know.
