Description
Greetings!

This is the first map that I have uploaded, and I hope you lot make the most of it.

Simplicity at its best. This map is a sandy desert that seems to go on over the horizon. The map is as large as the Source engine will allow and has a high skybox for you fliers out there. It includes a concrete bunker with two landing pads and a large microwave tower. There are two supplementary pads out in the desert for people who want a bit of flat land away from the central area. This map is good for wheeled vehicle suspension testing. This has been my private build/test map and I now give it to you.

Turn bloom off for building, and bloom on low for display and awesome looks.

Features:

1. Very large open desert map
2. Concrete bunker for privacy and protection
3. High 3D skybox for fliers
4. 2x Landing pads for VTOL/Heli/Planes
5. Sand dunes as far as the eye can see - suspension tests!
6. 2x Private pads away from centre area
7. Includes dust haze and desert ambient with adjusted bloom.
8. Optimised for low lag and loading
9. Small file size
10. A Genuine Damocles Designs Production (what more could you want?)

Just paste the directory into your Addons folder.

If this map becomes popular enough, I will update it with more buildings and an underground area. The more popular, the farther the underground area will go!

I hope you enjoy it!

I remember seeing a map in 2020 that had an exterior almost exactly like this, but the sand was grass. The building had 2 blue doors, and it had stairs that lead down to a hallway with cells. There were more stairs, that led down to this large room covered in dev textures and a pool in 1 room and more containment cells in the other. I for the life of me cannot remember the name, nor can I find it in the Workshop by using keywords that could possibly match. I very distinctly remember that this was my favorite map for a while, and for a long time, I would use it almost all day. I think it was either removed or simply hard to find.

ok

The map is 11 years old, and has been downloaded a simply silly number of times. Sure, I get a few messages a year about missing textures, but it almost always comes down to people having mods that corrupt the older textures this map relies on. Failing that, re-mounting HL2 will always fixes any problems. Sorry dude, I can't help you, it is a rare bug, and if the usual fixes don't work, it is almost definitely something in your 4 pages of mods.

i have 4 pages of mods i have re downloaded gmod 6 times and the map nothing changed

Unfortunately, means that one of your mods has corrupted your texture folder. Try re-download of map, then re-download of Gmod.
