Hey guys,

Last week Valve finally released the Left 4 Dead Authoring Tools. It allows me and other mappers to have fun in L4D’s dark atmosphere full of zombies.

So I took a break from Nightmare House 2 for one day, and made the following map: God Dam. It’s a rather simple survival map, with two main zombie streams, opposite directions. Sounds easy, but I can assure you it is challenging. Have some screen caps (download below):

L4D Map God Dam from an epic angle

L4D Map God Dam Gameplay 2

I like the new tools, I might make a campaign too.

So, Click here to download.

Mirrors: 1|2

Instructions, (readme.txt) goddamn it:

Put both the bsp file and the nav file in:
\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead\left4dead\maps

To play the map, open up the console and type “mp_gamemode survival” and then type “map l4d_sv_dam”.

To start the action, go to the far side of the dam and press on the switch.

HF, any feedback is appreciated!

Heya!

I think it’s time to push the April fools posts down, and as well keep you guys up to date on what we’re working on. We’ve got lotsa stuff planned in the following weeks, and we sure hope you’ll like it.

First off, some of you may have noticed the front page is going through some redesigns. These changes are made in order to expand the theme of WCS to the rest of the website. This means, eventually, this blog and the forums too will have the same sleek look of the front page. Oh and the forums will be upgraded: PHPBB2 did a fine job for the past year or so, and it’s time to move on.

Projects-wise, both Echoes and Nightmare House 2 projects are going well! Echoes is gonna get its website set up real soon, so be sure to read around. NH2’s website is also gonna get an update, as it is rather outdated at the moment. Meanwhile, Hen told me to put this up:

Nightmare House 2. yarrr, wat the eff ey?
