FEAR Map Contest Anyway description
This is a "old school" map, where you will begin with a Pistol and not with a weapon of your choice.

F.E.A.R.™ (First Encounter Assault Recon) is an intense combat experience with rich atmosphere and a deeply intense paranormal storyline presented entirely in first person. Be the hero in your own spine-tingling epic of action, tension, and terror… and discover the true meaning of fear.

An unidentified paramilitary force infiltrates a multi-billion dollar aerospace compound, taking hostages but issuing no demands. A Special Forces team is sent in by the government to contain the situation, but contact is severed as an eerie signal interrupts radio communications. When the interference subsides moments later, the team has been obliterated. Live footage of the massacre shows an inexplicable wave of destruction tearing the soldiers apart before they can even react.

In light of the desperate situation the F.E.A.R. team is assembled. As part of this elite classified strike team created to deal with the most unusual and shocking of threats your mission is simple: Eliminate the intruders at any cost. Determine the origin of the signal. And contain this crisis before it spirals out of control.

Mod Note:
This is a "old school" map, where you will begin with a Pistol and not with a weapon of your choice. Also, there are no Medkits placed in this map (dead players still drop one).

I wanted to create my first map without any custom textures, to show what's easily possible with the files, included in the editor. I had to made/change some materials and added some sound effects, but thats it.
All you can see inside the map, was made with WoldEdit only. No other program was used.

I don't know how long I worked at this map, as I had to learn the editor, aswell as I had to play the game (not to mention my pretty busy real-life), but I think it took my about 2 weeks if I substract all the things I tried out and such.

Also, it was a very hard and annoying work to get the FPS as good as possible (I sadly had to remove some details). I wasn't able to rise them anymore (without losing even more details), but I have about the same FPS like with the original maps, so it will hopefully work fine for everyone else, too.

I hope to see you guys playing the map!
