<<---------------------------------->> Installation <<----------------------------------->>

Very simple here. Just unzip 'cs_outskirts_b3.zip' into your Half-Life directory.

However, if something goes wrong, the map isn't working...make sure:

------> cs_outskirts_b3.bsp is in half-life/cstrike/maps
------> outskirts.wad is in half-life/cstrike 
------> mi2cut.wav is in half-life/cstrike/sound/misc

All the textures used in this map are compiled into the .bsp

<<---------------------------->> Fixes/changes since BETA 2 <<--------------------------->>

- Hostages now cannot get up the ladder into the vent. In BETA 2 this caused a problem where 
  hostages would block the way down the ladder, as pointed out by crazg.

- Ladders leading up to the CT territory from the tunnel have been shortened to minimise T's
  'rushing' through the tunnel. (it is still possible to go up the ladders, though)

- Added more 'cover' in some areas: 
					- tunnel: added pushable armchar
					- CT start area: added hedges + rock
					- nightclub: added 2 upturned tables
					- big courtyard: added 2 hedges

- Other changes:			
					- several textures changed
					- architecture simplified: reduced r_speeds
					- eliminated crash on some machines by compiling 
					  textures into the bsp
					- many minor tweaks

<<------------------------------------>> Gameplay <<------------------------------------->>

Professional car thieves operating in the Nevsky area of Moscow have run into resistance
and were forced to take hostages in the closest populated place - the CMD nightclub. 

A special ops team was called in, their briefing: "Take out the Terrorists without jeopardizing 
the hostages. Surveilance indicates an attempt by the group to barricade themselves and the
hostages in an abandoned rooftop cafe. 
It has not been confirmed, but the latest information 
suggests 2 of the 5 hostages have managed to flee to nearby buildings."

<------->

- Terrorists start in the rooftop cafe with 3 hostages.

- The other 2 hostages are in an abandoned apartment block.

- Counter Terrorists start among abandoned ruins.

- There are 3 security cameras in the night club: 

	1 covering the front door, 
	2 dance floor,
	3 back door and car park.
