The first thing you should do is fix the filename.

Dm Maple Hill

Notice above the filename has spaces, which means you wont be able to play it on command.. Id suggest changing it to.

DM-MapleHill

Secondly, The skybox texture is not scaled correctly.. you have also forgot to calculate lighting unless that was done on purpose.

Theres also holes where you can get stuck.. and not to mention you can fall out of the map quite easily..

Just a tip = you can select all your weapons and ammo and go to properties, change the respawn time to 1.. that way it wont take long for the weapons to return once they have been picked up.

you can still have it dark.. but if you dont calculate lighting you get the geomod bug which is pretty easy to fix.

add a room effect, and make it an "Ambient Light" you can also change the color..

Also, to get a dark, night-time effect, make a normal light, give it a range of around 500 and shove it in the middle of your map.. give it a n Intensity of about -0.25.. yes, MINUS 0.25, it makes it a dark light

This gives good effects for shadows if RF's shadow thingy ain't good enough for what you want..

Back in RF... getting back into the swing of things!
