Info
----
A small-ish map based on a city street theme, there's a mix of external and
internal areas to suit different weapon types.

This is the second version, its been cleaned up and I've tried to make the
item placement a bit more balanced.

R_speeds for internal areas are ok although some of the outdoor bits are way
too high. The silver roofed H building has the highest poly count, avoid
this bit if you've got a low spec system. I could've chopped these areas out
or made them into very narrow corridors but decided to leave them as-is.

----------

  .WAV's go in \sound\beemer


History
-------
Map originally inspired by some .RMF map files that i saw in a mapping
competition in the TS forums.  Two map sections are loosely based on .RMF's
by Schmung and Insulaner, had to rework them so there's prolly little
left of the originals.


Trouble Shooting
----------------
The breakable/exploding stuff will only break/explode once and won't
respawn. The breakables were put in for another version of the map used
for ActionHL and The Specialists mods where stuff will respawn after a
while. 

Trees have blue "leaves" - the trees use new rendering technology used in
DOD v1 and CS 1.6, installing either of these mods will update HalfLife
with the code needed to render the trees correctly. As of writing its not
enough to patch HalfLife (non Steam) as AFAIK Valve haven't included this
technology in the latest patch.
