enemy sightings as possible, after that, you are free to choose your course of action,
use whichever path you can find that leads into the center of the island.
Make use of the nano-suit, and adapt to the specif conditions of this rocky terrain.

ammunition and gadgets, make use of them if possible or necessary.

-5----Personal Notes-------------------------------------
Took me around six months to finish this map, editor learning included in that time.
Now that I'm finished with it, I only hope you're gonna have as much fun playing it as I had
developing it.
I want to thank everyone who supported me, and always were willing to give me good and useful
feeback, especialy the guys over at mapcore, and Seed Studios, the company i work at!
Without all these people, I'd never would have made it!

WARNING:
Be careful while using custom configs when playing this map.
Simply because I tweaked the ToD, and Ambient Occlusion,
to look the best with Default Crysis settings, therefor while using
custom configs, you might get very dark results.
Although, if you want to use my Ultra High Quality Config 1.3.1,
then please, insert the following command in the console, to ease up
the overall darkness of the map:
r_ssao_amount=0.2

I'm so psyched that the ICMC SP is near its completion; I get to play all these lovely maps. [HP] yours will be one of the first from that list; I'm going to take a day out of development to play most of these maps all the way through
Looks stunning; I hope you get at least the beauty prize for this one mate.

How did you deal with the save game issue? As in, items/some scripts/buttons/some areas not resetting when you load save games?
And this looks fantastic. It's clear to me that I probibly have no chance in winning with all these high-class mappers creating amazing works
But oh well

hey guys, thanks a lot for the kind words!
KorJax, i was not aware there was a bug concerning the autosave feature in custom maps. I've placed a few on my map, but I didn't noticed such bugs because I (And probably all my beta testers) use f5 -> f9, to load the quick save game!

It's not with the auto-save system, it's with saving in general for some reason.
I've noticed after reloading a save, stuff like my inventory and some mission-critical triggers I set off will not reset, but it's only with my map and custom maps.
A few other people have recently reported similar problems as well...
This flowgraph is critical for single-player level design.
Considering the Crytek maps don't have this issue (and they did nothing special to prevent it as far as I can tell), I'm assuming it's a bug with how Sandbox 2 exports to the engine in 1.2, in which case it might not be considered a bad thing if alot of maps have this issue in the judging phase.
