The Pyramid

Description
Another explorable novelty map I created for fun and decided to share.

Explore a giant pyramid with some internal leisure spaces, and admire the view!

I have placed a few pieces of weaponry and ammo to encourage exploration if you're so inclined, however there are no enemies. All fair feedback is appreciated, but please do play the map with the understanding that it's a novelty map designed for exploration, not shooting.

Appears in new UI workshop menu. If you're using the old UI the map name is bm_pyramid.

VMF files are included. You will find at <steam folder>\SteamApps\workshop\content\362890\3011129587

I was able to port it, along with a night version. Doesn't look quite as nice as the BMS version but it should work. I took out the weapon placements as the game lets you spawn them anyway.

The branch of the source engine that Gmod runs on doesn't support the newer light entities present in Black Mesa that I use to create some of the nice shadows present in the map. The map itself should be capable of being ported, just without the fancy shadows and god rays. The models used in the map will also have to be ported.

Might take a little while, but I'll have a look into porting it when I get more time.
