A lush green forest with a rustic cabin area by a moonlit lake.
The map is a combination of well sculpted terrain with a lush green environment, as well as rustic interiors for cabin areas. Plenty of area for multiplayer.
Map is completely fixed and playable now. You can re-download. I'm probably no longer eligible since I messed up the first upload but anyways. I would like for you to give it another go. I've read a lot of your comments specifically and would like your feedback. Thanks!
Yeah my custom textures are not loading. I only noticed this last minute, I never had the issue with my other maps before even with extra packages. Kinda sucks I find out now, oh well. I'll fix it soon anyways regardless of contest.
I also have the issues, black squares all over the place and untextured, just blue and white squares. Looking forward to a finished version though, I like the lakeside theme.
I found the problem. I need to make sure and use the built in sharers tripwire uses because the game only loads their shader cache. So no custom material shaders. I wish that was clearly stated in the documentation. I'm almost done fixing everything...
Well done.
It's a good looking map. You made the moon awesome! And its light was fantastic.
Only one think I felt. I mean I didn't felt.
The house looked like a house or a small hotel. There were tables, chairs, beds. I messed the cupboards (Wardrobes) where the people store their clothes.
I guess it'll be boost the atmosphere if there would be some cupboards (Wardrobes).
I didn't find any bugs.

P.S. I wanted the up-vote by 9, but it's still impossible. :( The preview's comment box doesn't open for I would able to write it. :(
Please report this issue. I've already did for three days ago.
I 100% agree with what you're saying about the interiors. To be honest I was going to work on a lot more custom content for the interiors because there wasn't a lot of models I felt worked at all. I basically ran out of time so the interiors were just kinda thrown together. I probably focused to much on the outside. Thanks for your comment.
I run the map on my server and have played with friends in multiplayer without issue. People think it has to be in one file and that if it's not it causes a whole mess of issues but actually missing materials and other things can be caused for many other reasons. Again, on my server it works fine so. . .I played grooveyard on a server the other day without downloading on here and it worked fine. The download on here shows like 7 files o__O. You can't tell how many files their server has when your game does a download because it pulls it into one cache. If you personally have a server and can't run a map that has multiple packages i'd be more than happy to help you with it. I appreciate your concern, thanks!
Very happy to see this has been fixed, it's a great map! I really enjoyed it, very nice texturing and atmosphere, good size and yet to see any bugs. Nice theme, I'll definitely be playing this a lot more. Great job :)
Cannot install it in a server. Must be only one file with all packed.
I couldn't test well the map because of the weird black cubes.
And there are a lot of missing texture.

I'm waiting my vote until the new update.

Great, looking forward to it :)
The map is fixed, you can play it properly now. Thanks for your comments!

Okay, I understand.
Fortunately, this map has been already looking good. So, it would be just a boost. :)
Map must be packed in one file if you want it installed in a server.
Otherwise it's solo game, then map is out of contest rules.

People installing maps manually are uncommon, and the RedirectURL system allow only one file.
