Main Folder#

File	In-Game?	NET Date	Description
ar_baggage	✓	June 4, 2012
cp_dust2	✗	February 6, 2013	A version of de_dust2 meant for the example Control Point gamemode, which is based on an older version of the map. Only 75% of the map is accessible, with Long A being blocked off.
cp_rooftop	✗	February 6, 2013	Another Control Point map set in some rooftops, but with a twist. Terrorists have to capture 3 Control Points while Counter-Terrorists snipe them from an adjacent building. Bots don't quite understand the map: Counter-Terrorist bots will jump off as soon as the round begins and Terrorist bots will freeze in place. The map seems to re-use geometry from Left 4 Dead's No Mercy map, more specifically, the finale.

cp_rooftop#

The CT spawn. The Terrorist spawn. One of the control points. Leftover geometry from No Mercy's final map, viewed with mat_fullbright 1. Ditto.

Unused Visgroups#

ar_baggage#

_escalator_steps#

Steps for the escalator seen in T Spawn, under _escalator_steps. Disabled because players never normally see these during gameplay.

ggselect_weapons#

Under "Gameplay" there is a visgroup for what-are-meant-to-be weapon spawns. The visgroup itself has no entities however. Presumably meant for the cut Scavenger mode, as the mode is referred to as "Select" in certain HUD concepts.

DNC#

An entire set of visgroups, presumably all disabled for compiling puropses, as DNC stands for Do Not Compile.

_skybox_ref

A scaled-down version of the map, made from orange dev textures and placed in the 3D skybox. When this is enabled, the map will not compile because the sky_camera entity is inside of these brushes.

_old lights and _old_lights_2

Older versions of lights. _old lights is a bunch of lights scattered around the middle area and _old_lights_2 is some light_spot entities and a metal beam on the large window.

_window_bars

In the Hammer editor. Other tool brushes and editor-only objects disabled for clarity.

Some blocklight tool brushes, meant to act as "bars" for this same window. In-game the lighting difference is marginal.

_indices error

A visgroup that may have been disabled because it caused an indices error.

cs_office#

-art_removal#

The ERRORs, in-editor. In-game they're simply invisible. A missing texture, which is supposed to be a brush-based whiteboard.

Some details removed from the map. Notice the missing models, which in the Hammer editor point towards some bookcase models from L4D2.

de_aztec#

skybox geo#

Under "DNC" there is a visgroup for a downscaled version of the map. This one is not placed inside the actual 3D skybox, though.

_old_crates#

Older versions of the various boxes around the map, all seemingly based on Counter-Strike: Source's Aztec boxes.

_old_doors#

Brush-based doors that are missing textures. Replaced by the model-based ones in final version.

_perf_removals#

Tool textures disabled in Hammer++ for visual clarity.

Various bits of shrubbery removed from the map for performance reasons, all lacking models.

de_train#

_missing models#

A lot of missing models, all pointing towards CS:S leftovers.
