I can confirm that the map will load successfully if you put it into the maps folder in Black Mesa's bms directory.

No it hasn't. I haven't updated it recently. Try to put the map in the maps folder of Black Mesa. The content folder is 2876688634. Really though, I wouldn't bother playing this now. I'm working on an updated version that takes the criticism and tries to improve upon it.

I tried to load the map but can't get it loaded. Has the file name changed?

I liked the atmosphere and feel of the map, but everywhere was just too bloody large! I also didn't really understand why we had to do the exact same generator puzzle twice, it just felt like unnecessary padding. I can tell you put a lot of effort into this one and tried to go ambitious with the spaces, but it needed some meat on it to make it worthwhile.

For next time, I would try and think about making sure that there's enough substance to your spaces. The spaces were all huge and took a long time to navigate, but all I was ever really doing was going from one end to the other and pressing a button. It needs to be move involved than that to be fun! Try and think about keeping the player engaged, because your atmosphere and style were pretty good for this!

Can't complete the map, stuck at control room.
Also had to drop the map in the maps folder for the game to detect it.

it works now. thanks.

Hey, so I guess you got it to work. Yeah that's fair, my hammer knowledge is limited, and I wasn't ready to go outside my comfort zone for a limited time event, and I wanted to try something without combat. I appreciate the feedback, though. Thanks!

(Hey there - I'm Kralich, the organisation lead for this competition. I'll be leaving a little paragraph on each entry with my notes and opinion in lieu of posting on Discord given the nature of this competition.)

JUDGE'S NOTES: Detritus was a strange map - never actually under threat, the continual ambience and darkness created a lonely atmosphere that I don't think was properly capitalized on. I spent most of the map running from button to button, pressing everything with a sprite on it without being fully involved with or informed about what effect this was having on my environment. In the end I found the way forwards and I do think the atmosphere is pretty solid here, but better telegraphing and more interestingly gameplay would have served this entry better.

If you want.

Alright, so I just uploaded the map by itself, without all the ingame workshop ui stuff. Try it now.

Thank you!

how should I do that? join their discord?

Still doesn't work. Ask the lamdbabuilds guys for help. Seems a lot of you are having the same problem.

well, I updated it. If this doesn't work, I don't know what to do. What you could probably do is go to the folder the map is in and put it into the maps folder of black mesa (although, it should be doing that automatically). The content folder is 2876688634. Otherwise, any help would be appreciated.

Needs to be repackaged.

Can confirm map isn't loading

LambaBuilds is holding a dishonorable, unfair contest and I am currently in talks with a lawyer! Boycott this map and contest for the good of the Half-Life community! We need more respectable people running these things!

Maybe ask some professionals for help.

I don't know what to do about this.

Hmm, no one else has reported this problem, yet anyways. I'm really sorry.

Still nothing.

When I updated the icon, it might of removed the map itself the addon? I apologize for this, and I just updated it with map definitely in the addon, so try it now.

Map load failed. Not found or invalid.
