The whole cinematic physics thing is a crock. That's cool that someone else made something using it though.

Cinematic physics in general, either from Goldrush or Episode 2. They are just models that have an animation, that was created by an external animation program that pre-simulates physics.

but that puts a lot less strain on the system then having 100+ physics objects - especialy in multiplayer

It was a bit overhyped really, they made it out to be a whole load more than it actually is.
Still, it all looks nice.

Snipergen will be making me one for pl_hoodoo, I've just got to finish detailing the area surrounding it and he can explode it.

off topic: what do the 2 letters at the start of a map name mean? eg. pl, de

on topic: looks awesome. Ihave never played that cart game type, so I can't compare to the original.

pl = payload
cp =control point/capture point
ctf = capture the flag
de = bomb map (CS:S)

There are many more for many different games.

I do have TF2, I just haven't played recently.

Also, (noob alert) what does payload mean?

Amazing what you can find by searching. Surely people know how to look up definitions :rolleyes:
