Ah right, I forgot to mention in description you need to have Team Fortress 2 installed and mounted to Gmod for it to work (its free on steam)

Bugs I've found so far:

Props in the HL2 room (top of spiral staircase) all fell over

Ladder in vents doesn't seem to work (unless I'm dumb)

Vents take a while to break with traditional HL2 weapons (not sure if intentional or not)

Slimegirl in the pot in the Sapphire Tuesday kitchen is way too big

Z-fighting on a lot of custom textures that are flush with the wall. Had a list going but it was getting too long

Snowglobes spawn sideways

Some arcade prizes fall off shelves

Green headcrabs don't activate from bullets like in the TF2 version (unsure if intentional or not)

Music doesn't loop properly (!!)

Gap between two walls in the maze's second section. Carried over from the TF2 version iirc, possibly intentional (but the way it looks I kinda doubt it)

HL2 concrete texture in abandoned store next to BLU spawn, probably same issue as with vent textures

I'll keep editing this if I find more

Thanks for the reports, I will write these down for any future updates I do to the map

As for the music looping that is sadly just a limitation, its either one time music file for smaller file size or a wav file that is huge for a loop which could be several MB.

One of the Golden ones, seems to clip into a certain wall. Without spoiling the location Too much. The one that's around the Spiral Staircase area
Other than that great map 10/10

Ah, well it still reachable at least right? (as in you can hit it/shoot it to activate?)

When loading into the map, I'm able to move around for about a second or so, before a massive lag spike causes the game to essentially softlock itself, preventing me from playing the map, or from minimising the gmod window.

I've tried verifying the game files and removing every other addon, as well as unmounting games that arent needed, and the problem still persists. Some help would be appreciated.

Hmmm... I dont think I have ever heard of anyone else experience this, its unlikely but maybe your pc is just not equipped to handle the map?

Otherwise I have a few small ideas of what may be causing it which I will try to fix in future update later (physics acting weird/flying around causing too much stuff to "happen" on screen)

I guess its also possible you somehow dint delete all addons or still have some when you load the map, causing the issues. Maybe try loading it with lower settings and see if that helps.

Also try loading another big map like it and see if similar happens.

Whenever I try to load into the map, I briefly see the world before being sent to a black screen and start taking damage. I've mounted TF2 and disabled addons but the problem persists. I get several console errors similar to this one:
Any help would be appreciated, as I always love Ethosaur's maps!

Those shouldn't cause any issues, im not really sure what could be causing this to be honest... most seem to be able to play without issues.

I'll try pushing an update someday when I can to fix the console errors at least and try sone quick bugfixes that could help

After some messing around I think one of my old addons corrupted some of my files, perhaps I was a little too hasty to submit it as a bug report - sorry!

Ah alright
