Featuring the four contestants from the October Mapping Contest, the pack has got a ton of gameplay in store for you. If you're looking to play some custom content and want it all together, here's the best place to start.

Get the goods here.

Any problems can be reported in the comments here, or PMed directly to me. Good luck, and have fun!

I am still not getting any voice in Accident Prone, which is a shame since it adds a lot to the map

I downloaded the new pack and everything works fine. No "node graph" error on Accident Prone, and I'm getting the voice now.

One weird thing: the file downloaded with a random filename full of hex numbers, like e902f39a2b3628c.zip. Unzipped fine though. (I'm using Firefox btw.)

Cr00ked.

Actually it is MD5, and that's because the Download Database hates me and I had to hack it.

Paul, you make me happy. Is anyone else having Rivid's problem, or is it isolated?

There are no install instructions that I could find.

The voice worked fine in "Accident Prone" for me.

There was, however, a missing texture near the beginning of "The Fall".

Sorry, only logged-in users can see spoilers.

Otherwise everything seems to work fine.

Uhh, guilty as charged. I would have sworn I had written instructions on the file's page, but I guess not. Oh well, that's fixed now. Good call.

Nice, I'll start downloading these maps ASAP.

Any other contests to be held in the near future? I'm making map too, 3 maps following each other actually, well, that's the idea, I'm working on map 1 and map 2. I started with map 2, but now I made a map before it, not giving the player the portal gun immediatly.

Anyhow, I really hope another mapping contest comes around soon. I got loads of time to spend on it.

Ooh nice, oh and where can I vote for this map pack, or this one already done?
