j2 Abstract map pack

Description
EPILEPSY WARNING
All of these maps have flashing / moving textures that could cause seizures / nausea, please be cautious

A collection of all of the surreal and abstract maps I could find used / made by the guys at the J2 forums. I've never been able to find them all in one place, so here you go. This is not intended to step on this lovely guy's toes, I respect him for doing it first, but he missed a few and I needed to split these up for my friends to use. I also took some fresh screenshots and wrote some half-assed descriptions of each map.

EVERY SINGLE MAP IN THIS PACK REQUIRES COUNTER-STRIKE : SOURCE.
AGAIN, EVERY SINGLE MAP IN THIS PACK REQUIRES COUNTER-STRIKE : SOURCE.
don't go crying about it.

turning on your flashlight on on some of these maps will break draw distance, i'm not sure why, but it's entirely done by the maps
this can be fixed by putting " r_flashlightfar 100000" in the console
*UPDATE* Check out this mod by Chen for a better fix!

If you find any actual bugs, like missing sounds, let me know on my profile. I will fix it as soon as possible.

I take absolutely NO credit for these wonderful maps. If any of the original authors are unhappy with their maps being included, let me know ASAP and they will be removed.

ahhh_b3 - absolute chaos, the map starts with a hotel exploding (depending on your spawn), one of the biggest maps with a ton of things to explore and find, mushroom forests, spinning trains, a shrine to bananas, and a giant flying head that roams the map and screams at you. map by Nipper[gamebanana.com]

arghhh - one of the most theme-heavy maps in the pack where the rooms almost blend together, you'll see things like a big flashy dance floor, a submarine trip where you can see some horrifying fish, makeout point, and even has some unsolved secrets. map by Nipper[gamebanana.com]

blahhh - an over-the-top abstract map with a lot of weird imagery like a giant chicken man, paintings that lead you into a person's head, and eyes in the walls. map by Nipper[gamebanana.com]

bohhh - a map that seems to be very heat / desert based with things like a lava pool, a molten core, and plenty of sand all over accompanied by classic game music and trippy animated textures. map by Dr Boo[gamebanana.com]

de_abstraceplane - thought lost to time because of a bug, but it's back, and it's a blast to explore. bizarre zones with strange imagery. map by HomicidalApe[gamebanana.com]

de_absurdity - a flashy mess of insane visuals and floating platforms, this map is absolutely bonkers but is a blast to run through. map by AlphaKennyOne[gamebanana.com]

de_elemental - compared to other maps in this pack, this one seems quite tame, but it still has you swimming through giant caverns, running through burning buildings, and finding floating islands. map by MrBlip[gamebanana.com]

de_radiance - smallest map of the pack, but that doesn't keep it from going all out. every room is eye candy (or strain), but it's easy to navigate with not many moving textures or complex layouts. map by Nipper[gamebanana.com]

de_saturday_night - a bunch of linked rooms that feel like they are each part of their own unique show with a sick 80's / 90's vibe, a medium map made by Dr Boo[gamebanana.com]

de_shevat_ka - a few floating structures with a good bit of verticality and interiors to explore including a bar, a cool almost ancient aliens aesthetic, map made by bobjones[gamebanana.com]

nippers_opus - he says "not really my opus anymore", but this map is an absolute masterpiece of nonsense, with eyes and hands all over, a giant head flying around to keep your on your toes, a bunch of cool homages and secrets to be found, a dance floor, and a healthy dose of nightmare inducing floating baby faces, map made by Nipper[gamebanana.com] (of course)

wham_city - a 70's-80's fever dream, filled with all kinds of hippie visuals and classic songs, plenty of Pink Floyd and Yes among others, still not hesitating to go all out on the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ design, map made by AMMO (couldn't find a link to their profile! sorry!)

yeayuhhh - a bunch of linked, tiny, narrow themed rooms back to back that try out different effects where it feels like something is always going on just out of sight, with one room resembling the inside of a digital world and another being a recreation of the windmill from Ocarina of Time or a stageplay or a moving train, map made by AlphaKennyOne[gamebanana.com]

zuhhh - one of the most nonsensical maps in the whole pack, with giant heads and a lot of space motifs, this one's a blast to run around in. map was made by Nipper[gamebanana.com], but he has since taken it down.

de_abstractplane was not included because of a crashing error.
it's fixed! de_abstractplane is now fully functional and ready to be played for the first time in years, enjoy!

9/9/24 update
fixed some bugs and added navmeshes and nodegraphs to ALL of the maps!
nodegraphs were generated using cpthazama's nodegraph editor tool, and manually looked over / tweaked by me
also used some commands from strawwagen's navmesh optimizer, again with manual checks and tweaks
i wouldn't have bothered doing this if i was just gonna generate ♥♥♥♥ lazily and cram it in, this took all day
without these two tools, this wouldn't have happened!
keep in mind i am new to doing this, these will NOT be perfect!
maps were all manually checked and tested with plenty of playtime using arccw weapons and zinv, so it should work for most things you throw at them.
if you notice nextbots aren't going into certain areas on maps, it's intentional
i will be rolling out updates over time to fix problems with these, but otherwise, this pack should be finished!

ok i love you byebye
