I dont think anything ever happened about this map so I've started it a thread all of its own :D
I've played this map quite a lot and the gameplay on it seems to be really good, plus it has low/standard rspeeds I am reliably informed, so those of you with older pc's wont get hit for fps.
Imho, it looks better than de_simpsons, despite the fact its not completely cartoony. I think we managed to iron out most of the possible exploits and "mapbugs" even in low-grav mode hence the "_v2" bit. I think it has the maximum spawn points. Steve could confirm that for you.
Exactly where you stick the boundaries I'm not sure, but here's a vague idea (plus you get to see an overview) although it seems a shame to not have gameplay in the school and kwik-e-mart (you could allow the CT into the shop (top left-ish bit)

LINKS
I just searched in google for de_springfield_v2.zip and picked a couple of links - hopefully they are all the original zip file...
If you want the map direct from its author that can probably be arranged too :)

Should definitely playtest this one night - perhaps on a theme night (Smilo :?: )
yeah, cause I'd be interested to see it played in non public conditions with even(ish) teams. theres a UK2 server 213.232.110.12:27035 which runs nothing but this and de_simpsons but normall the people playing on it are hopeless. My score often reaches silly levels like 20-2 on springers on that server :D granted I know the map inside out die to being the main beta tester, but still :roll:
benjeh's pimped this map more than i have :D and for that i thank him
i know it's a gay fun map but i've still got the source files, so if you want it altered for pcs i'd be glad to do so
So why is it gay? Either its a fun map or it isn't. Surely its sexuallity is of no importance?

soz didn't mean to offend any1
None taken, just a gentle reminder of the standard of post we have come to expect on our forum.
Good map btw.
Coulda meant happy gay? la la la, ohhhh ducky.
:) Nope not happy gay.
As we all know gay used in a 'I337 speak' manner is a euphuism for crap, making the insinuation that being gay (homosexual) is crap. Clearly both an inaccuracy (as a significant minority of the population think being gay is brilliant) and offensive too.
And no I'm not just posting this waffle in a vain attempt to hit my 1000 post....no not at all...oh no.

That mean i can delete it then :twisted:
:wtf:
it has one small problem well looks like it has the cts start way to close to the spots and will be able to set up good positions and t's will find it difficult
not really. The CT only arrive within range of the duff beer truck (site A) at most a second before the T's. In fact with both teams rushing full on the two meeting points are the duff truck bombsite and the quik-e-mart. Practically the same as some more popular maps such as dust2 ;)
