Intro

By way of introduction, I am "Redclaw" and I have spent the last 4 years mapping for AVP2. I also served as a map reviewer for PlanetAVP. About 6 months ago I jumped in the Half Life 2 and CounterStrike arena feet first. It's been a total blast and I love the HL2 world. If play AVP2 and would like to check out those maps please PM me.

Installation

Unzip the files csancientarcticruinsv1.bsp: Steam\Steamapps\<>\counter-strike source\cstrike\maps\

WARNING

Changing the map name from "csancientarcticruinsv1.bsp" to anything else will cause all the special visual effects (specularity) to stop working as the cubemaps have been compiled for this map filename only. Basically the map will look like crap if you change it's name.
