This map was to be based of the tv show "Wipeout" but due to technical errors, I thought of ideas from it.
It is based on true focus on patience. Slow down in order to pass the traps, speed through and you won't know what's going on!
Total of 12 controlled traps.



So far the map is okay. if you want to test it its here:

The pictures are outdated but don't look very different than now, the file I gave you is much better than the pictures show:

So far, all traps have no bugs I hope.

Win the round and do old style!

I think some people might lag. On your screenshots, I can see you get an overflow. I sent you an invite through Steam.

I've been thinking for a few, I cant seem to find any ideas to add to this map, or any ideas that makes the map faster.

I could shorten the race but also the bhop and the easy can add to it too.

Maybe if there's another way to reduce lag without deleting anything?

I thought fog but even if that reduces view distance it still will lower fps.

hmm...

Use tonemap. But you will need to compile the map in HDR.

Changed the third trap to be a teleport to the fall of death.

Added secret room. (grenades in it)

This is the lighting change. Made it cloudy.

I know what it means but I can't explain it since I'm with my phone.

it means you either have leaks, too big skybox, or just not-well optimized map.

Found the leak.

At the spawn, I mean the actuall spawn on the way left, in front of it is a wall not closed.

Try to add water in your level somewhere. Compile and play it. If you can't see it, it means you have a leak elsewhere. Don't forget displacement don't seal leaks. I suggest you to copy your compile log and paste it on interlopers.net
Also, if you want to find your leak, go to "map" in hammer and click "load pointfile". Follow the red line to find the leak. It will bring to an entity. Don't delete it. Just find the hole in the map and fix it.
My map had tons of leaks but all got fixed...
