Cave map

Here's a map I made for scenebuilding or other use in SFM. I say scenebuilding first because that's what I had in mind when I was making it (My images above illustrate how you might go about scenebuilding). Because of this the map has:

- no lights
- no props
- a large skybox so you can build stuff outside the caves

The map features:

- two large caverns with ledges, overhangs etc
- two versions of the map; one with tf2 textures and one with hl2
- a series of smaller tunnels of various sizes
- a chamber full of lava
- a cavern with water in it
- a small outside area with two cave entrances

FAQ:

Q: Why is everything black?
A: There are no lights at all. I did this so scenebuilders have proper control over their lighting. If you're having a hard time locating anything create a few large lights to act like suns while you plan everything out.

Q: I found a hole!
A: Congratulations! Hopefully you can ignore it like I do, or if it's in one of your shots plug it with a rock or something.

Q: Light is leaking through the walls into places I don't want it
A: I'm not really an expert map maker so I'm not sure what caused this on my actual map, but a solution is just to set the maxdistance or z-index of your lights to be low enough that they don't affect places beyond the cave walls.

Have fun, and send me links to things you make with the map!
