--------------------------------------------------------------

I hope it's not a fail map, and once I get the skybox and a few props done I will take pics.

BUT I will not give the map to people because I don't want the secrets getting out before the map is even released.
Also this map most likely won't be a big kickass map because I don't have a major map maker helping me like Alkaline, although he has helped me wih problems I have had and I thank him for that but the point is don't expect something extrodinary lol

Oh and this will be almost a full scale of my house lol, I'm going to try my best to put things how they look :P

Yeah, every time we vote for this map it fucks up the server and crashes it, thus having us start on one of the default zs maps.

Every time I have played it online it works perfectly with very little fps lag...

-  Add fade distances to the props to add some kind of optimization. Min and max at 1000 would do it.
-  Make the fire trap behind the skybox, so people can't see it.
-  Nodraw on every face you shouldn't see. (E.g the fire trap outside faces.)
-  Do decals with decal tool. Don't make brush-blood. Lol. It looks silly.

You should remove the secret completely. I haven't tried it ingame yet, but it looks way too OP for humans.
I can already imagine people rushing to the guns before round start.

I can't really understand why is it so hard to search. I never asked anybody to help me. If something bothered me, I just google'd it and I would find the answer almost immediatly.

Or you could just give the original file to us and we can modify it and send it back to you.

 and i have seen all of Phillips videos.

And i was thinking of asking someone, but then i thought no because later if i want to make a map i dont want to give it to them, and say " Here do this shit for me because i dont know how" i would rather learn it and do it myself

Wait, so you asked Alkaline to help you. You removed the areaportals, because it still didn't work? You still want to add those areaportals, but it just fucks up the map? Then why don't you just post the compile log or look at there by yourself. All the problems are in there.
Or if you can't find them
