Map flyby vid

Here's a flyby video I made using fraps last May. It's 28MB zipped and has my commentary as I fly around the map listed below. The quality is so-so and the map has significantly changed since then (added more detail). It's comparable to what the original beta test maps looked like but I have it on good authority that the maps they'll release in a few weeks w/DOD:Source will look much better.

I should have this map out by late October. It's based on my official map dod_falaise (but it's not a port) and I still need a good name to call it. My good friend Jed just wants me to use any name other than area's where Canadian and British forces moved through so I'm thinking about dod_crapola

(btw...dod_crapola is a pet name. I rename maps that don't have finished names and in no way construes anything negative about anything...the least of which is the grand respect I have for all the combatants in WW2 nor was it meant to be taken negatively by anyone living near Arstaviken. I would love to see the brits back in DoD. In this case I was thinking about a new name and I thought "Crap...I have no clue what to call it" And crapola it was. Crap is, in fact, one of my favorite cuss words).

Nice video Fuzz! I just want to, great job, also the way how you inform the scene with info about our project. Do you have any life besides working, sleeping and mapping? ;)

Wow.. simply amazing. The 3d skybox fits nice to the map!

But.. four and a half months! Wow, workaholic? Nice done!

Hey
Just wanted to compliment you on this nice looking map. Wonderful work. Definately looking forward to playing this one!

Greetings Fuzzdad, i loved Falaise from the first time that i played it,also loved the beggining of every round.
I hope that this map continues to have the guns blazing around the corner,it was always a nice moral boost, that confusion.
Just finished seeing the flyby and it is as i expected, the quality is WAY up!:D
This source engine will create a total new and formidable ambience and experience.
Your doing a terrific job as always...didnt see the crapola over there xD
Looking forward to play this map...over and out
Thankx

Looking very good, I can see the basic layout is comfortable but also has enough changes that should make it fun.
